Flame retardent boot
May 1st 2010

A robust, flame retardant boot which has been ergonomically designed to provide protection and comfort in tough working conditions is available from the Dickies range of safety footwear.

In addition to helping to guard against damage or injury from sparks or flames, the design of the Kevlar Flame Retardant Boot S3 is said to anticipate almost all potentially hazardous circumstances.

Features include full breathable, waterproof and Sympatex lining, composite midsole for underfoot protection, antistatic, energy absorbing, heat and oil resistant sole, and a composite, anti-scuff toe-cap to EN20345 standard. For fast access, safe wearing and easy removal, the boot incorporates side zips, strong, pull-on loops and full threaded upper lacing.

The boot is made from tough leather with Kevlar special stitching for added durability and heat resistance, and combining reflective strips for high visibility.
