FAQs

What is the SRC certification?

SRC is the highest level of slip resistance certification for safety footwear. It means the boots have been tested for slip resistance on both ceramic tile with detergent and steel floor with glycerol, ensuring excellent grip in oily and wet conditions.

Can these boots be worn in hot weather?

While the Purofort+ material is durable, it is primarily designed for protection and insulation, including cold resistance. In very hot weather, breathability might be limited, and they are best suited for work environments where safety is the priority.

How do I clean chemical spills off the boots?

Wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals for cleaning, as they can damage the Purofort+ material. Always rinse thoroughly after exposure to any substance.

What is the main advantage of Purofort+ material?

Purofort+ material is a type of foamed polyurethane that offers excellent insulation, is lightweight, durable, and resistant to chemicals, oils, and fats, providing superior comfort and protection compared to traditional rubber or PVC boots.

Are these boots suitable for electrical hazards?

These boots have an anti-static feature and meet EN ISO 20345:2011 S5 standards, which include toe and midsole protection. However, they are not specifically rated for electrical hazard (EH) protection unless explicitly stated in their certification.

How long do these boots typically last?

The lifespan of the boots depends on the frequency and intensity of use, as well as the specific working environment and how well they are maintained. Regular cleaning and proper storage will help extend their durability.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the boots are designed to accommodate the removal of the standard insole, allowing for the insertion of custom orthotics or thicker insoles for added comfort or specific support needs, provided they fit within the boot without compromising the safety fit.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing thicker or thinner socks to adjust the fit. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Water seeping into the boot

Inspect the boots for any visible cracks or damage to the material or seals. If damage is found, the boots may need replacement. Ensure the shaft is properly covered by trousers to prevent water entry from the top.

Reduced grip on slippery surfaces

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any mud, oil, or debris that may be blocking the tread pattern. The SRC rating indicates high slip resistance, but extremely contaminated surfaces can still reduce traction.

Feet feel cold despite insulation

Ensure you are wearing appropriate thermal socks. Verify that the boots are the correct size and not too tight, which can restrict circulation. The -20°C rating is for insulation performance, not extreme cold survival without appropriate socks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent slip resistance certified to SRC standards.
  • Effective insulation for cold weather conditions down to -20°C.
  • Comprehensive safety features including steel toe cap and midsole.
  • Durable and resistant to a wide range of chemicals and oils.
  • Lightweight design reduces wearer fatigue.
  • 100% waterproof construction for all-day comfort.

Cons

  • May be perceived as heavy for casual use compared to non-safety wellingtons.
  • The specific yellow and black color scheme is work-oriented.
  • Requires proper sizing for optimal comfort and safety, as with any safety footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you select the correct UK size for a secure and comfortable fit. For optimal performance, it is recommended to check that the boots are free from any damage before each use.

Compatibility: The Dunlop Purofort+ Wellington Boot is designed for a wide range of industrial and outdoor work environments. Its safety certifications (EN ISO 20345:2011 S5 CI CR SRC) make it compatible with most workplace safety regulations. It is suitable for use with standard work trousers that can be worn over the boot shaft.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Purofort+ boots:

  • Cleaning: After each use, rinse off mud and debris with clean water. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and a soft brush. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh detergents, as these can damage the Purofort+ material.
  • Drying: Do not dry the boots near direct heat sources like radiators or open fires, as this can degrade the material. Stuffing the boots with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  • Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before long-term storage. Hanging them or storing them upright can help maintain their shape.
