Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for all weather conditions?

These trainers are specifically designed for warm conditions due to their perforated upper. While they offer some protection, they may not be ideal for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or extreme cold compared to waterproof or insulated footwear.

What does S1P certification mean?

S1P certification indicates that the footwear has a closed-toe heel area, is anti-static, has energy absorption in the heel, and features a pierce-resistant midsole and a protective toecap.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Portwest. The product details list the UK size. Ensure you measure your foot accurately and compare it to the recommended size for the best fit.

Can the steel toecap and midsole be felt during wear?

The design incorporates these protective elements to minimize feel during normal wear. However, some users may initially notice them until the shoes break in. They are designed for safety and protection.

What is the benefit of the dual-density sole?

A dual-density sole typically offers a combination of durability and cushioning. This can enhance comfort during long periods of standing and walking by providing better shock absorption and support.

Are these trainers machine washable?

No, these trainers should not be put in a washing machine. Cleaning should be done manually using a soft brush and a slightly damp cloth for the suede upper, and allowing them to air dry.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Please refer to the retailer or Portwest's official warranty policy for specific details on the warranty period and coverage for this product.

Troubleshooting

Foot feels too warm

While designed for breathability, ensure socks are also made of moisture-wicking material. Check that the perforations are not obstructed.

Slipping on certain surfaces

The SRC rating indicates high slip resistance. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from excessive mud, oil, or debris that could affect grip. Inspect the outsole tread for wear.

Discomfort during first wear

Allow a break-in period of a few days. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the materials to mold to your feet. Ensure the correct size has been selected.

Suede looking dirty or stained

Gently brush off dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a lightly dampened cloth, then allow to air dry. Applying a suede protector can help prevent future stains.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent breathability for warm working conditions
  • Robust safety features including steel toecap and midsole
  • High level of slip resistance (SRC rating)
  • Comfortable design for extended wear
  • Durable suede construction

Cons

  • Suede upper may not be ideal for extremely wet or dirty environments without proper care
  • Low-cut design may offer less ankle support than higher boots
  • Steel components add some weight compared to composite alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct UK size for a proper fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of adult users across various industries including construction, logistics, manufacturing, and maintenance. Compliant with EN ISO 20345: 2011 S1P safety standards.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt from the suede upper. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  2. Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to enhance water resistance and guard against stains, especially if exposed to moisture or dirt.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box, to maintain their shape and prevent damage.
