Product Information
Full details
The Portwest Mustang Steel Hiker Boot is designed for professionals in trade, site, and industrial roles who require reliable safety footwear with an athletic, supportive feel. These boots provide essential protection against impact and punctures, featuring a durable full-grain leather construction and a high-traction outsole. While the boots are exceptionally robust, users should note that the steel components add weight, which may be a consideration for those standing on hard surfaces for extremely long shifts.

FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The upper is water-resistant, designed to prevent moisture penetration in standard work conditions, but they are not classified as fully submersible waterproof boots.
Does this boot have a steel toe?
Yes, it includes a protective steel toe cap that meets EN ISO 20345: 2011 S3 standards.
Can I use these on construction sites?
Absolutely. The combination of steel toe and pierce-resistant midsole makes them ideal for most industrial and construction applications.
What does the SRC rating mean?
The SRC rating indicates the highest level of slip resistance, tested on both ceramic tile (with soap) and steel surfaces (with glycerol).
Are these boots suitable for long walking distances?
Yes, the hiker-style profile and ankle support are specifically designed to provide stability and comfort during extended periods of standing and walking.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Ensure there is a small amount of space at the toes and that your heel does not slip excessively while walking; the boot should feel snug but not restrictive.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially
Leather requires a break-in period; wear the boots for short intervals over several days to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Water resistance seems to decline
Ensure the leather is regularly treated with a waterproofing spray or wax, as the natural water-repellent properties of oil-tanned leather diminish with age and exposure to elements.
Outsole loses grip
Clean the tread patterns with a stiff brush to remove embedded grit, oil, or debris that may block the anti-slip channels of the TPU outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum comfort, verify your sizing before first use; leather boots will mold to your feet over the first few days of wear. Keep the full-grain leather in peak condition by cleaning off mud and debris daily with a soft brush and damp cloth. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking or drying out. Always store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, as extreme heat can compromise the structural integrity of the rubber outsole and the leather upper.
