FAQs

How do I adjust the BOA Fit System?

To tighten, push the dial down and turn it clockwise. To loosen, pull the dial outwards. Adjust as needed for a secure and comfortable fit.

Are these boots suitable for very cold weather?

While the boots offer waterproofing and comfort, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold. Adding thick socks can provide additional warmth.

What does 'Metal Free' protection mean?

It means the safety toe cap and the sole's puncture protection are made from non-metallic materials, such as composite or specialized polymers, which can be beneficial in certain work environments.

Can I replace the BOA Fit System if it breaks?

Helly Hansen offers a lifetime guarantee on the BOA Fit System as long as it is still attached to the product. Contact customer support for assistance with any issues.

What is the Helly Tech® Waterproof Membrane?

It's a breathable membrane integrated into the boot's construction that prevents water from entering while allowing moisture vapor (sweat) to escape, keeping your feet dry and comfortable.

What is the return policy if I don't like the boots after wearing them?

MI offers a unique 30-day wear guarantee. If you are not satisfied after wearing them for up to 30 days, you can return them for a full credit on your account.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

The boots are generally true to size. It's recommended to order your normal shoe size. Insoles for size 42 measure 28cm, and size 43 measures 29cm, which can be used as a reference.

Troubleshooting

BOA dial is stiff or difficult to turn

Check the dial and surrounding area for dirt or debris. Gently clean with a soft brush. If the issue persists, contact customer support as the system may require specific attention.

Boots leak water

Ensure all closures are sealed. Inspect the Helly Tech membrane and leather for any visible damage. Clean the boots and allow them to dry thoroughly. If leakage continues, the waterproofing may be compromised.

Poor fit or discomfort

Re-adjust the BOA Fit System for a more precise fit. Consider wearing thicker socks if a snugger feel is desired. If discomfort persists after proper adjustment, ensure the correct size was chosen.

Lining feels damp after wear

This can be normal due to perspiration. Ensure the boots are aired out after each use. The moisture-wicking lining helps manage sweat, but prolonged use without airing can lead to dampness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure and easily adjustable fit with the BOA system
  • Lightweight protection with composite toe cap
  • Excellent waterproofing and breathability
  • Durable construction for demanding environments
  • Comfortable cushioning for long wear

Cons

  • Potential for extended delivery times if stock is low
  • Metal-free design might not meet all specific site requirements
  • BOA system, while durable, could require specialized attention if issues arise

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The BOA Fit System is designed for immediate use. To tighten, turn the dial clockwise. To loosen, pull the dial outwards. Adjust until a comfortable, secure fit is achieved. The boots are designed to fit true to size, and it is recommended to choose your normal shoe size. For instance, if you wear a UK size 10 in other casual shoes, a UK size 10 in these boots should provide a good fit, accounting for potential thick sock wear.

Compatibility: These boots are suitable for most adult work environments requiring safety footwear, particularly those with risks of foot injury from falling objects, sharp objects underfoot, and wet conditions. They are metal-free, making them suitable for environments with metal detectors or where electrical conductivity is a concern, though they are not specifically rated as electrical hazard boots.

Care: Clean the nubuck leather upper with a soft brush to remove dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Ensure the boots are dry before storing. Avoid direct heat sources for drying. The Helly Tech membrane should be kept clear of excessive dirt to maintain breathability. Periodically check the BOA Fit System for debris and ensure the dial and laces move freely.
