Boot Technology
Leather
Our boots are made from premium quality leather that’s ethically and environmentally sourced from members of the Leather Working Group (LWG), with leathers predominantly sourced in New Zealand.
Steel Toe Cap
Made from hardened steel for premium toe protection.
TPU Outsole
Our standard durable outsole with heat resistance to 130°C.
Slip & Oil Resistance
All Steel Blue footwear is designed to exceed the Slip resistance requirement in both the AS 2210.3 and EN ISO 20345. Our boots are rated as SRC which means that the footwear has been tested in laboratory conditions on both a ceramic tile floor with a Sodium Laureth Sulfate solution (SLS) and on a steel floor with Glycerine.
Anti-Static
Prevents the build-up of static electricity within your body by dissipating it through the sole.
Penetration Resistant
An extra tough steel or composite midsole to prevent sharp objects getting through to your foot.
Water Resistant
A special tanning process treatment means all Steel Blue boots are water resistant.
Scuff Cap
An abrasion resistant, streamlined toe cover that covers more of the boot.
Zip Sided
Lace Up for comfort, then use the side zips for quick access.
Lace Up
A classic fastening for snug, well-fitting work boots.
Fresche QuatLock™
A renewable resource that offers long-term antibacterial and antimicrobial protection against fungus, bacteria and the odours caused by bacteria.
The Materials
Full Grain Leather & Nubuck Leather
Each Leather is specifically chosen to ensure the style of boot is fit for purpose.
Baltico® Lining
A soft, non-abrasive, hydrophobic material that wicks perspiration away from the foot, enabling the skin to remain cool and dry.
Ortho Rebound® Footbed
Our patented Ortho Rebound® Footbed is uniquely designed to reduce foot fatigue. Made from high quality Polyurethane, it always retains its shape and thickness to ensure support from heel to toe, is antifungal, and the high wicking material keeps your feet cool and dry.
Poron
A full length anti-bacterial / anti-fungal punch woven, PORON® Permafresh covered insole. Increases breathability, wicking and adds superior cushioning under foot.
