Water-Resistant Outer Shell
Nobody can work at their best with damp, wet feet. Portwest B1610 Leather Work Boots use a traditional "high top" design specification that includes a thin and sleek polyurethane coating for deflecting water and moisture.
This helps keep your feet dry at all times, no matter how intense the rain gets.
Authentic Leather Foundation Fabric
Some people just prefer the fit and feel of real leather. Authentic leather has the advantage of being long-lasting when compared to synthetic options, making it the only real choice for a pair of premium quality work boots that you're going to wear for years.
Enhanced Stability Design
Fortrex is equipped with an ultra-resistant rigid insert at the rear, which maximises stability and provides torsion resistance at the medial area of the boot. This creates an all-encompassing enveloped feel, which stabilises the foot and ankle to prevent slips and trips in poorly paved areas.
Superior Cushioning Shell
Each pair of Base Safety Boots UK B1610 Fortrex Puncture Boots features a hard-wearing interior shell made using a viscoelastic material, which provides extra cushioning and absorbs high-impact energies when contact is made with the heel.
Absorbent to Vibration and Shock
If you work with power-tools like angle grinders, drills, jackhammers and saws, you'd be forgiven for disregarding the potential threat they pose to your feet and ankles. When you're using these powerful bits of kit, shockwaves can actually travel up from the ground as your body shakes, causing damage to the joints and bones in your feet and ankles.
The sole of Portwest B1610 Fortrex Work Boots are made using layers of different consistencies and thicknesses to soften vibrations in order to protect vital areas against shockwaves and vibrations.
Protection Against Nails, Screws and Sharps
One of the most important aspects of any safety shoe or boot is the sole and how resistant to puncturing it is. The upper section of this nail-resistant sole is made of two separate pieces, the upper of which is specifically moulded to prevent the sudden force of a nail, screw or sharp tip upon contact.
Polyurethane Rubberised Sole
Rubberised polyurethane is a serious coating for the most serious industries. Designed and manufactured to bolster resistance to nails, screws and other strewn sharps, it's this durable coating that protects your feet from lacerations and incisions that could potentially cause serious injury when trodden on.
