Product Information
Full details
The Caterpillar Inductor ESD Mesh Mid Hiker is designed for professionals who require a blend of safety, flexibility, and all-day comfort in demanding work environments. These boots provide high-level protection including a composite toe cap and midsole, making them an ideal choice for tasks requiring ESD and antistatic safety. While they offer superior protection and a waterproof design, they are specifically engineered for industrial settings and may feel heavier than traditional leisure hiking footwear.

FAQs
Are these boots suitable for airport security?
Yes, because the boots feature a metal-free composite toe and midsole, they are generally accepted by security scanners.
What does S7S safety rating mean?
S7S is an EN ISO 20345:2022 safety standard indicating the boot is waterproof, has a protective toecap, and is resistant to oil, fuel, and static electricity.
Can I replace the footbeds?
Yes, the provided PU footbed is removable and can be replaced with your preferred aftermarket insoles.
How often should I clean the outsoles?
You should wipe off mud and chemicals after every shift to maintain the grip and performance of the heat-resistant rubber.
Are these boots oil-proof?
The outsoles are oil and fuel-resistant, meaning they are designed to maintain their integrity when exposed to such substances.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pressure points during use
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened and check if the PU footbed is correctly positioned inside the boot.
Static build-up occurring
Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris, as a buildup of dirt can insulate the antistatic features of the sole.
Water ingress
Check the outer material for deep cuts or punctures that may have compromised the waterproof membrane.
Pros and Cons

- Excellent heat and chemical resistance for industrial durability

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your boots, begin by ensuring the correct fit to avoid internal rubbing. If you wear custom orthotics, the removable PU footbed can be swapped out to accommodate them. For maintenance, clean the exterior of the boots with a soft brush to remove dirt and debris after each shift. If the boots become saturated with mud, rinse them with water, but avoid high-heat sources like radiators for drying, as this can crack the material. Periodically check the outsole for embedded sharp objects to ensure the heat and oil resistance remains uncompromised.
