Yes, the boots feature a Helly Tech® waterproof membrane and a waterproof nubuck leather upper, designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.
The BOA® Fit System uses a dial, lace, and guides to allow for quick, precise, and secure tightening or loosening of the boot. Turn the dial clockwise to tighten, pull it out to release.
BOA® systems are designed for durability and often come with their own limited lifetime warranty. Replacement parts or servicing information can typically be found through BOA® or Helly Hansen customer support.
Use a stiff brush to remove dirt, and a specialized nubuck cleaner for stains. Avoid standard shoe polish. Treat with a nubuck conditioner to maintain water resistance and appearance.
While they offer good protection and waterproofing, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold. They are best suited for general work conditions where thermal insulation is not the primary requirement.
It means the protective toe cap and puncture plate are made from composite materials instead of metal. This is beneficial for environments with metal detectors or where electrical hazards are a concern, but always check specific safety ratings for your workplace needs.
These boots feature a wide, roomy fit. Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear for work. Ensure there is comfortable space around the toes and that the heel does not slip excessively when walking.
Ensure the dial is fully pressed down before turning. Clean any debris from around the dial and lace pathway. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Inspect the leather upper for any damage or excessive wear. Check the seam sealing and reapply waterproofing treatment to the leather. Ensure laces are properly tightened and the tongue is aligned.
Consider using thicker socks or an aftermarket insole to take up excess space. Ensure the BOA® system is adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit.
The internal air mesh lining may become clogged with sweat and dirt. Ensure feet are clean when wearing the boots and allow them to air out properly after use. Consider using moisture-wicking socks.
Setup:
These boots require no specific setup beyond ensuring they are the correct size and comfortable for your feet. The BOA® Fit System is operated by turning the dial. To tighten, press the dial down and turn it clockwise. To loosen, pull the dial outwards.
Compatibility:
These boots are compatible with most standard workwear and safety gear. The metal-free design makes them suitable for environments with metal detectors or specific anti-metal policies. They are designed for adult use in various occupational settings.
