Dunlop On Site Steel Toe Cap Boots - Black - 10.5

EN ISO 20345 is an international standard for safety footwear. The 'SB' designation indicates 'Safety Basic', meaning the boots meet fundamental safety requirements, including a toe cap capable of resisting 200 Joules of impact and 15,000 Newtons of compression.

While these boots feature an 'Oil Resistant sole' and a durable Nubuck leather upper, they are not explicitly rated as waterproof. They offer good resistance to oil and some moisture, but prolonged exposure to water may lead to dampness inside. For full waterproofing, a specific waterproof membrane would be required.

For daily cleaning, brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth to wipe the surface. For stubborn stains, specialized nubuck cleaning products are recommended. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally after cleaning.

The steel toe cap is rated to withstand impacts of up to 200 Joules and compression forces of up to 15,000 Newtons, providing robust protection against common workplace hazards.

No, these boots are designed to be 'Lightweight', aiming to reduce foot fatigue during long periods of wear. The combination of design and materials helps ensure comfort even during extended shifts.

Yes, the laces are standard boot laces and can be easily replaced if they become worn or damaged. Measure the length of your original laces to ensure you purchase a suitable replacement.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Re-lace the boots, making sure the lacing is snug but not overly tight. Check that the padded ankle collar is positioned correctly. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size as these boots are designed to be true to size.

Regularly clean the rubber lugs on the sole to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing traction. Use a stiff brush and water if necessary. Also, inspect the soles for excessive wear, as worn-out treads can diminish anti-slip performance.

This indicates the Nubuck leather needs conditioning. Clean the boots thoroughly, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner specifically formulated for nubuck. Regular conditioning helps to moisturize the leather, maintaining its flexibility and preventing cracking.

While these boots feature a mesh lining for breathability, prolonged wear in warm conditions can still lead to heat build-up. Ensure you wear moisture-wicking socks. You may also want to allow the boots to air out thoroughly between uses to promote dryness inside.
