Product Information

Full details

Its primary benefit is superior protection combined with lightweight, trainer-like wearability. A potential caveat is that while breathable, they may not be waterproof.

FAQs

What does S1P rating mean?

S1P indicates that the shoe has a closed-back, protective toecap (S1) and a pierce-resistant midsole (P), offering protection against common workplace hazards like impact, compression, and underfoot penetration.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, these shoes are designed for breathability and are not waterproof. They are suitable for dry working conditions. Water may penetrate through the suede and perforations.

What is the best way to clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always allow the shoes to air dry completely away from heat.

What surfaces is the slip-resistant outsole effective on?

The SRC rating means the outsole provides the highest level of slip resistance, tested on both ceramic tile (with soapy water) and steel floor (with oil).

Can I wear these with standard socks?

Yes, you can wear them with standard socks. For enhanced comfort and moisture management, especially in warm conditions, consider wearing moisture-wicking or athletic socks.

What is the material of the sole?

The sole is made of PU/PU (Polyurethane/Polyurethane), offering durability and slip resistance.

Are these suitable for men and women?

Yes, the design is unisex, suitable for adult men and women, with sizing available in UK adult foot sizes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Allow for a break-in period of a few days. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit.

Reduced slip resistance over time

Clean the outsole regularly to remove accumulated dirt or debris that can affect grip. Inspect the sole for excessive wear and replace the footwear if the tread pattern is significantly diminished.

Suede material becoming dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution, and allow to dry naturally. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Perforations seem insufficient for extreme heat

While designed for breathability, extreme heat may still cause discomfort. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. For extremely high temperatures, additional cooling measures for the feet might be necessary.
