FAQs

Are these boots suitable for industrial environments with safety requirements?

Yes, Dunlop offers Purofort Professional Wellington Boots with optional steel toe caps and steel midsoles for impact and penetration protection, suitable for many industrial environments.

How do I clean the antibacterial lining?

The antibacterial lining is treated within the boot material. Standard cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap for the exterior and interior should suffice. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the temperature rating for thermal insulation?

These boots provide thermal insulation down to -20°C.

Can I replace the insole?

Yes, the insole is designed to be removable, allowing for replacement with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired.

Are these boots waterproof?

Yes, as wellington boots, they are designed to be fully waterproof.

What makes the Purofort Professional model different from the standard Purofort?

The Purofort Professional model features an antibacterially treated lining, an improved insole with better moisture and energy absorption, and a wider tread for enhanced grip compared to standard models.

How should I store these boots when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is best to store them upright or on their side to prevent creasing.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider using thicker or thinner socks to adjust the fit, or refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurement.

Feet feel cold despite insulation.

The -20°C rating indicates protection under specific conditions. For extreme cold, consider wearing thermal socks. Ensure the boots are not excessively tight, as this can restrict circulation and reduce warmth.

Reduced slip resistance on certain surfaces.

Ensure the sole is clean and free from mud, grease, or debris. The tread pattern is optimized for many surfaces, but extremely slick or contaminated surfaces may still present a hazard. Inspect the tread for wear.

Discomfort from the insole after extended wear.

The improved insole offers enhanced absorption. If discomfort persists, ensure the boot size is correct and consider if additional arch support is needed, although the insole is designed for general comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for a proper fit. If purchasing the safety version, confirm that it meets the specific safety requirements for your industry.

Compatibility: The Purofort Professional range is designed for adult use across various professional sectors. The wide tread pattern is compatible with most outdoor and industrial surfaces.

Care: To maintain the boots' performance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, clean the boots with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  2. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or intense sunlight), which can degrade the material.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally upright or on their side to prevent creasing. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
  4. Inspection: Regularly inspect the boots for any signs of wear, such as cracks or damage to the sole, and replace if compromised.
