FAQs

Are these boots truly waterproof?

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

How does the BOA Fit System work?

The BOA Fit System uses a dial that you press in and turn clockwise to tighten the laces for a secure fit, and pull out to release. It allows for quick and easy adjustments.

What does 'Wide Fit' mean for these boots?

The 'Wide Fit' indicates that the boot is designed with more internal volume and a broader base, intended to provide greater comfort for individuals with wider feet.

Are the safety toe and nail protection made of metal?

No, these boots feature a composite safety toe and metal-free nail penetration protection, meaning they do not contain traditional metal components in these areas.

What is the warranty on the BOA Fit System?

Helly Hansen typically offers a lifetime guarantee on the BOA Fit System itself, provided it is still attached to the product and shows no signs of abuse.

Can I wear these boots in cold weather?

While designed for waterproofness and breathability, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold. Performance in cold weather will depend on the socks worn and the duration of exposure.

How should I clean my Helly Hansen safety boots?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use mild soap and water. Always air dry them naturally away from direct heat.

Troubleshooting

BOA dial is stiff or difficult to turn

Ensure the dial is fully pressed in before turning. Check for any debris around the dial mechanism and clean with a soft brush. If the issue persists, contact customer support as the BOA system may have a lifetime guarantee.

Boots are leaking or not waterproof

Inspect the boots for any visible tears or damage to the Helly Tech® membrane or seams. Ensure all closures are properly fastened. If damage is present, the waterproof integrity may be compromised.

Discomfort due to fit

Adjust the BOA system for a more precise fit. If discomfort persists, especially with pressure points, ensure you have the correct size, considering the wide fit design. Try wearing them with different types of socks.

Insole is not managing moisture effectively

Remove the insole to allow it and the boot interior to dry thoroughly. Ensure the boot is not constantly exposed to excessive moisture without adequate drying time. Consider replacing the insole if it appears worn out.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance thanks to Helly Tech®.
  • Convenient and secure fit adjustment with the BOA® Fit System.
  • Enhanced comfort for wider feet.
  • Durable construction with protective toe and midsole features.
  • Suitable for various wet and demanding work environments.

Cons

  • Wide fit may not be suitable for individuals with narrow feet.
  • Composite toe may offer slightly less impact resistance than steel in some extreme scenarios.
  • Reliance on the BOA system means potential issues if the mechanism fails, although a lifetime guarantee is offered on the system itself.
  • Metal-free construction might be a consideration in environments with specific regulations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These boots are ready to wear out of the box. The BOA® Fit System is engaged by pressing the dial in and turning it clockwise to tighten. To loosen, pull the dial outwards and then turn counter-clockwise. Ensure the fit is snug but comfortable, without any pressure points.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: While designed with a wide fit, it's advisable to consult the Helly Hansen sizing chart and try them on to ensure the correct UK size (e.g., UK 3) and a comfortable fit for your foot.
  • Environment: Suitable for adult use in environments requiring S3 safety ratings, waterproof protection, and composite toe safety.
  • BOA System: The BOA system is designed for durability, and users can register their product for potential lifetime support on the system itself.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use mild soap and water, then rinse and wipe clean.
  • Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials.
  • Membrane Care: Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can compromise the waterproof properties of the Helly Tech® membrane.
  • Insole Care: Remove the Ortholite® insole periodically to air it out and clean it if necessary. Hand wash with mild soap and water, and air dry.
