Portwest FW40 Limes Hiker Boots (Navy)
Many hiking boots, particularly ones designed for use at work, can be cumbersome and awkward to wear, often featuring unnecessary protective features for everyday use. However, the Portwest FW40 Limes Hiker Boots (Navy) have a minimalist design with the basics of foot protection: slip, fuel and oil resistant outsoles, padded collars for comfort and heel kicks with pull tabs for unfussy protection for casual wear. While these can be used for light industrial purposes, these boots prioritise comfort to those who need it on an everyday level through a lightweight and stylish design.

Where Else Can These Hiking Boots Be Worn?
These hiking boots do not have the same safety standards as many other Portwest Work Boots and Shoes. This makes them ideal for more casual wear by everyday people, in the following environments and situations:
- Hiking and trekking: These boots are most obviously designed for wear on uneven, rocky terrains such as when climbing or hiking. Hiking boots provide great traction through extra-grippy soles, reducing the likelihood of dangerous tumbles.
- Music festivals: Going to a music festival is a great way to up your step count, making the right footwear absolutely essential. Whether you need foot support following one too many beers, or are slipping around on muddy grass, hiker boots are a great way to increase ankle support and overall mobility.
- Wet and muddy conditions: Again, since hiking boots have enhanced traction, they can be used in conditions where the ground is, or was, very wet and slippery. This is particularly helpful if you work outside or require assistance with outdoor activities such as gardening or farming.
- On your feet all day: If you're required to work on your feet all day, but don't need intensive safety standardised boots, then these are the perfect option. Free of steel toecaps, midsoles, and other often cumbersome protective features, these boots ensure comfort on any terrain without any unnecessary features.
Suede Safety Boots
Suede is a great material for hiking boots for the following reasons:
- Suede is soft, making it super comfortable for wearing over long periods of time
- Suede is pliable, making it bend around the wearer for a custom shoe fit
- Suede is attractive, making these boots look more sophisticated than regular hiking boots
- Suede is breathable, for improved foot hygiene and breathability on long hikes
These boots are therefore a brilliant option for anyone needing more casual foot protection for everyday use at work and home.
