Helly Hansen Chelsea Evolution Safety Boots - Black/Grey - UK 7

Yes, the boots feature a Helly Tech® waterproof membrane designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

The boots use a BOA® Fit System. Simply turn the dial clockwise to tighten and pull the dial outwards to release the tension for easy on and off.

Composite toe caps meet the same safety standards (e.g., ASTM, EN) for impact and compression protection as steel toe caps, but are lighter and do not conduct heat or cold as readily.

While the lining is moisture-wicking and breathable, the waterproof membrane can reduce overall breathability compared to non-waterproof boots. They are best suited for moderate to cool, wet conditions.

It means that key protective components like the toe cap and nail penetration protection do not contain any metal parts. This is beneficial for environments with metal detectors or where electrical hazards are a concern.

Gently clean the dial and surrounding area with a dry brush to remove any dirt or debris. Avoid using liquids directly on the mechanism.

This specific model, the Chelsea Evolution Boa Wide Composite-Toe, is designed with a wide fit. Please refer to other models in the Helly Hansen range if a different fit is required.

Check the BOA® system for any trapped debris or dirt. Gently clean the dial and the surrounding area with a dry brush. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Inspect the Helly Tech® membrane and seams for any visible damage. Ensure all closures are properly fastened. Minor leaks might indicate damage that requires professional assessment or replacement.

Ensure the BOA® dial is not overtightened. The wide fit is designed for comfort, but individual foot shapes vary. Consider using thicker socks or consulting the manufacturer for potential insoles that may further enhance comfort.

This can occur in very humid conditions or after heavy exertion. Ensure the boots are properly aired out after each use. If persistent, check for any external moisture ingress.
