Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these trainers truly waterproof?

Yes, the trainers are designed with waterproof materials to keep your feet dry in various weather conditions. However, prolonged submersion or significant damage could affect their waterproof capabilities.

What safety standards do the steel toe caps meet?

The steel toe caps are approved by UK & EU ISO 20345:2011 S1P SRC safety standards, ensuring protection against impact and compression.

How long will the sole warranty last?

Black Hammer offers an exclusive six-month sole warranty to ensure you stay safe and comfortable.

Can I wear these for everyday casual use?

While stylish enough for casual outings, they are primarily designed for safety in work environments. Their robust construction and safety features might feel more substantial than standard casual footwear.

What are the main materials used in these trainers?

The trainers are constructed from high-quality TPU and mesh material, with a durable rubber outsole and a Kevlar midsole for added protection.

How should I clean my safety work trainers?

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Are these trainers slip-resistant?

Yes, they feature a rubber outsole designed for excellent grip and are rated SRC for slip resistance on various surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Trainer feels too tight or causes discomfort

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thicker socks or loosening the laces. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider if the specific fit is suitable for your foot shape.

Water seeping through the trainers

While designed to be waterproof, prolonged immersion or damage to the material could allow water ingress. Check for any tears or holes in the mesh or seams. Ensure laces are tied securely to maximize upper protection.

Reduced grip on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud, oil, or debris, as these can compromise grip. The SRC rating indicates slip resistance on ceramic tile floors wet with soapy solution and on metal floors wet with glycerol. Performance may vary on extremely slick or contaminated surfaces.

Steel toe cap feels uncomfortable

The toe cap is designed to protect. Ensure the trainer is the correct size and width. Some initial adjustment might be needed as the shoe breaks in. If the toe cap consistently pinches or causes pain, the fit may not be suitable.
