FAQs
What does the EN ISO 20345:2011 rating mean?
This is a recognized European standard for safety footwear, confirming the boot provides specific levels of protection, including impact resistance, penetration resistance, and fuel oil resistance.
Are these boots waterproof?
Yes, as high-quality Wellingtons, they are fully waterproof and designed to keep feet dry in wet, muddy, or industrial environments.
How do I choose the right size?
The Dunlop Acifort series generally fits true to UK sizing standards. Ensure you account for the thickness of the work socks you intend to wear.
Can I replace the insole?
While the boot is designed for durability, you can insert aftermarket supportive insoles if you require additional arch support or comfort.
Are these suitable for chemical environments?
These boots are built for construction safety. While they handle water and oils (FO rated), always check specific safety data sheets if working with highly corrosive or specialized chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable
Wear thicker, moisture-wicking work socks to cushion your feet and break in the material over a few short shifts.
Loss of traction on smooth surfaces
Inspect the red sole for compacted dirt or oil build-up and wash thoroughly with mild detergent to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots remain in top condition, clean the exterior of the Dunlop Acifort Ribbed Wellingtons with water and a soft brush after each use to remove chemicals or debris. Allow the boots to air dry naturally, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can compromise the material. Check the sole periodically for embedded stones or debris that may reduce grip performance. Because these are safety-rated, they are compatible with standard industrial socks; avoid overly thick or non-breathable materials if you are working long shifts to ensure adequate moisture management inside the boot.
