The Dunlop On Site Steel Toe Cap Boots are engineered to perform in environments where foot safety is paramount. The steel toe cap acts as a crucial barrier against heavy falling objects or compression hazards, making them ideal for construction sites, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and workshops. Imagine working with heavy machinery or materials; the 200 Joule impact and 15,000 Newton compression protection give you peace of mind.
The oil-resistant and anti-slip sole with its prominent rubber lugs provides reliable traction on challenging surfaces, such as floors potentially slick with oil, grease, or water. This significantly reduces the risk of slips and falls, a common hazard in many industrial settings. Whether you're navigating a busy factory floor or a muddy outdoor site, these boots aim to keep you steady.
Comfort features like the padded ankle collar and tongue, combined with a mesh lining, address the fatigue associated with long shifts. The padding helps prevent chafing and provides cushioning, while the mesh promotes airflow, minimizing sweat buildup and enhancing overall foot comfort. The regular fit and true to size design ensures a comfortable experience right out of the box, supporting sustained wear throughout your workday.
Upon receiving your Dunlop On Site Steel Toe Cap Boots, the primary setup involves lacing them properly for a secure and comfortable fit.
Loosen Laces: Fully loosen the laces through all eyelets.
Insert Foot: Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated against the back.
Tighten Laces: Starting from the bottom, progressively tighten the laces, pulling firmly but not excessively. Ensure the boot feels snug around your foot and ankle, but not restrictive.
Secure Knot: Tie a secure knot, such as a double knot, to prevent laces from coming undone during activity.
These boots are compatible with a wide range of demanding work environments requiring safety footwear. They are an excellent choice for:
Construction workers
Warehouse operatives
Factory and manufacturing personnel
Mechanics and automotive professionals
Tradespeople (e.g., electricians, plumbers) working on site
Outdoor workers exposed to varied terrains and potential hazards
They meet the EN ISO 20345 (SB) standard, signifying basic safety requirements including toe protection.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your boots:
Cleaning the Upper: For the Nubuck Leather upper, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn marks, use a specialized nubuck cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, then allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Cleaning the Sole: Regularly inspect and clean the soles. Remove any trapped dirt, debris, or oil residues from the rubber lugs using a stiff brush and water to maintain optimal anti-slip performance.
Drying: If boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage the leather.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or humidity.
Inspection: Periodically inspect your boots for signs of wear and tear, especially the toe cap area and sole, to ensure continued safety compliance.
