Top 5 features of comfortable work boots

View the internal support & safety features

Support on the inside. Built for the working day.

Work boots with orthotic insole support

ORTHOTIC INSOLES INCLUDED

Work boots with orthotic insole support

The Ultra Soft arch support insole cushions the foot and supports its arches, helping reduce the load on the muscles and ligaments during long days on your feet.

Support under the arch and cushioning under the heel work together for comfort, rather than relying on a soft sole alone.

Comfort that works as hard as you do

CUSHIONING & GRIP

Comfort that works as hard as you do

EVA midsole

Cushioning under the heel and forefoot helps absorb the impact of each step. The midsole balances softness with support for a long working day.

Slip-resistant nitrile rubber outsole

A durable tread provides grip on the work site, with heat and oil resistance. Grip depends on the surface and conditions.

Antistatic construction

Designed to reduce the build-up of static electricity. Antistatic footwear is not electrical insulating footwear.

A work boot made for on or off the job site

SUPPORT WHERE YOUR FOOT NEEDS IT

A work boot made for on or off the job site

Lightweight polypropylene shank

The internal shank supports the middle of the foot and limits excessive twisting. It adds structure where you need it while allowing the boot to flex at the forefoot.

Replacing a traditional steel shank with polypropylene keeps this support lightweight and metal-free.

The Test Standards Safety Toe 200 Joules Impact Benefit:

The footwear protects the wearer’s toes against the risk of injury from falling objects when worn in industrial and commercial environments where potential hazards occur with the following protection plus, where applicable, additional protection. What: Australian & NZ Standards AS 2210.3:2019 Standard. To test the safety toe /safety shoe with a drop strike test machine at an impact energy of 200 Joule, the clearance under the toecap shall be by the standard of different sizes. Where: Toe

Safety Toe 15’000 Newton Compression Benefit:

The footwear protects the wearer’s toes against the risk of injury from crushing when worn in industrial and commercial environments where potential hazards occur with the following protection plus, where applicable, additional protection. What: Australian & NZ Standards AS 2210.3:2019 Standard. To test the safety toe with the plate of the compression machine until the load of 15000 Newton has been reached, the clearance under the toecap shall be by the standard of different sizes. Where: Toe

Safety Insert 1100 Newton Anti-Penetration Benefit:

The penetration-resistant component is tested under specified conditions; it does not eliminate every puncture or injury risk. What: Australian & NZ Standards AS 2210.3:2019 Standard.
