The Dunlop On Site Steel Toe Cap Boots are engineered for robust performance in diverse industrial and construction settings. The steel toe cap acts as a crucial barrier against common workplace hazards, such as falling tools, debris, or accidental crushing from machinery, offering peace of mind to the wearer. On sites with oil spills, wet floors, or loose gravel, the oil-resistant and anti-slip sole with its integrated rubber lugs provides exceptional traction, greatly minimizing the risk of accidents. For professionals who spend long hours on their feet, the padded ankle collar and tongue, combined with the breathable mesh lining, work together to deliver sustained comfort and reduce fatigue. These boots are ideal for roles such as carpenters, electricians, warehouse staff, and general laborers who require reliable foot protection without compromising on comfort. The nubuck leather upper ensures a durable boot that can withstand daily wear and tear, making it a reliable choice for demanding conditions. Always ensure laces are securely tied to optimize ankle support and fit.
To set up your Dunlop On Site Steel Toe Cap Boots, simply follow these steps:
Lacing: Fully unlace the boots to comfortably insert your foot.
Insert Foot: Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is seated at the back.
Lace Up: Starting from the bottom eyelets, thread the laces through, ensuring they are even.
Tighten: Systematically tighten the laces from bottom to top, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit. The padded ankle collar and tongue should feel supportive without restricting movement or circulation.
Knot: Tie a secure knot, double-knotting if preferred for active work environments.
These boots are compatible with standard work attire and safety personal protective equipment (PPE). They are designed for environments requiring EN ISO 20345 (SB) certified safety footwear. Always ensure they are worn with appropriate work socks to enhance comfort and moisture management.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your boots:
Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the nubuck leather upper with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a specialized nubuck cleaner.
Sole Maintenance: Periodically clean the sole and rubber lugs to remove embedded debris, which helps maintain the anti-slip properties.
Drying: If boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can dry out and crack the leather.
Conditioning: Apply a suitable nubuck leather protector or conditioner periodically to help repel water and maintain the leather's suppleness. Follow the product manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
