FAQs

Are these Dunlop On Site boots waterproof?

The boots feature a Nubuck Leather upper, which offers a degree of water resistance. However, they are not explicitly advertised as fully waterproof. For enhanced water resistance, you can apply a suitable nubuck waterproofing spray or treatment.

What does EN ISO 20345 (SB) standard mean?

EN ISO 20345 is the European standard for safety footwear. The 'SB' designation indicates 'Safety Basic,' meaning the boots provide fundamental safety features, including a steel toe cap that protects against 200 Joules of impact and 15,000 Newtons of compression.

How should I clean the Nubuck leather upper?

For routine cleaning, use a soft brush or a dedicated nubuck brush to remove dry dirt. For more stubborn marks, a damp cloth with a specialized nubuck cleaner can be used. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally after cleaning.

Are these boots suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, these boots are designed with features like a cushioned insole, padded ankle collar, and shock-absorbing heels to provide comfort for extended periods. However, a short break-in period is recommended to ensure optimal personal comfort.

Can these boots be worn by men, despite being listed as 'Ladies Safety Boots'?

While marketed as 'Ladies Safety Boots,' the primary distinctions would typically be sizing and fit considerations (e.g., width, ankle circumference). If the sizing and fit are comfortable and appropriate for a male wearer, the safety features remain the same and meet the specified EN ISO standards regardless of gender.

How do I ensure I choose the correct size?

It's best to measure your foot length and compare it to a brand-specific sizing chart. Consider trying them on with the type of socks you'd typically wear for work. Ensure there's enough room for your toes to move comfortably within the steel toe cap without pressure.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel uncomfortable or are causing rubbing/blisters.

Ensure you've allowed for a proper break-in period. Wear thick, moisture-wicking socks. Re-lace the boots to ensure an even, secure, but not overly tight fit. Check that the size is correct for your feet.

Reduced traction or slipping on surfaces.

Inspect the outsole for mud, debris, or excessive wear. Clean the lugs thoroughly. If the sole is significantly worn, the anti-slip properties may be compromised, and the boots might need replacing.

Feet feel cold, especially around the steel toe cap, in cooler environments.

Wear thicker, insulated socks designed for cold weather. Consider adding a thermal insole if there's enough space without compromising fit or comfort.

Nubuck leather looks dull or stained.

Use a specialized nubuck brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, apply a small amount of nubuck cleaner as per product instructions, then re-brush. Consider a nubuck protector to prevent future staining.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior foot protection with steel toe cap (200J impact, 15kN compression).
  • Enhanced comfort features including cushioned insole and padded ankle collar.
  • Excellent traction with rugged, oil-resistant, and anti-slip sole.
  • Durable Nubuck Leather construction for longevity.
  • Shock-absorbing heels reduce fatigue during long shifts.
  • Meets rigorous EN ISO 20345 SB safety standards.

Cons

  • Steel toe caps can add weight compared to non-safety footwear.
  • Nubuck leather may require specific care for maintenance.
  • May feel stiff initially and require a break-in period.
  • Not explicitly advertised as waterproof (nubuck offers some resistance).
  • Breathability might be limited due to protective features and leather material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & First Use:

  1. Lacing: Fully unlace the boots, slide your foot in, and then lace them up firmly but comfortably. Ensure the laces are snug enough to prevent your foot from sliding, but not so tight that they restrict circulation.
  2. Break-In Period: Like most robust safety footwear, these boots may feel stiff initially. Wear them for shorter periods around the house or for light duties before full-day use to allow them to mold to your feet.
  3. Sock Choice: Wear appropriate work socks (e.g., moisture-wicking or thicker cotton blends) to enhance comfort and prevent rubbing.

Compatibility:

  • These boots are designed to meet EN ISO 20345 (SB) safety standards, making them suitable for workplaces requiring such certification.
  • Intended for use in environments where foot protection from impact, compression, oil, and slips is necessary.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Cleaning Nubuck Leather: Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (a dedicated nubuck brush is ideal). For stubborn stains, use a damp cloth with a specialized nubuck cleaner. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
  • Drying: If boots become wet, remove insoles and allow them to air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or heaters, which can damage the leather.
  • Conditioning: Periodically apply a nubuck conditioner or protector to maintain the leather's appearance and water resistance. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Sole Inspection: Regularly check the outsole for excessive wear or damage to ensure anti-slip properties and traction remain effective. Replace boots if the sole is severely worn or damaged.
  • Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
