FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all types of construction work?
The Caterpillar Moor Trainers meet EN ISO20345:2011 safety standards, offering good protection for general work environments. However, specific job roles may require specialized safety footwear with different certifications (e.g., steel toe caps, puncture-resistant soles). Always check if these trainers meet the specific requirements for your workplace.
How effective is the antibacterial insole?
The Poliyou cushioned insole has antibacterial properties designed to help inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, contributing to a fresher feel during extended wear.
What does SRA slip resistance mean?
SRA indicates that the footwear has been tested for slip resistance on ceramic tile surfaces covered with water and detergent. It means the shoes provide a good level of grip in such specific conditions.
Can these trainers be worn in very hot environments?
Yes, the trainers are heat resistant up to 300 degrees Celsius, making them suitable for environments where exposure to high temperatures is a concern.
How do I clean the PU coated nubuck upper?
For the PU coated nubuck upper, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners. After cleaning and drying, you can gently brush the nubuck to restore its texture.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The product description does not specify waterproofing. They feature moisture-wicking properties to help keep feet dry from sweat, but are not explicitly listed as waterproof for external water ingress.
What is the primary benefit of the Tailbrelle lining?
The Tailbrelle lining contributes to the overall comfort of the shoe and helps with moisture management, working alongside the insole to keep the foot dry.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The Poliyou insole can be removed to create slightly more space, or consider wearing thinner socks.
Feet feel damp
While moisture-wicking, prolonged heavy sweating can still lead to dampness. Ensure the shoes are properly aired out after use. Check that the insole is fully dry before wearing.
Slipping on certain surfaces
The SRA rating indicates slip resistance on specific ceramic surfaces with water/cleaning products. Performance may vary on different surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris.
Nubuck upper looks dirty
Use a specialized nubuck cleaner or a damp cloth with a very mild soap solution. Brush gently in one direction after drying to restore the texture.
