Engineered for high-temperature smelter environments, these 230mm safety boots combine flame-retardant leather with specialised thermal protection for demanding industrial applications. Compression-resistant Ssoftherm® insulation helps protect against radiant heat, while full Kevlar® stitched seams and flame-retardant toe scuff protection reinforce the boot against harsh working conditions and liquid metal exposure.
Comfort and stability are built into the #981 with a shock-absorbing PU midsole and XRD® Technology positioned through the forefoot and heel for targeted impact protection. The heavy-duty rubber outsole provides excellent cut and slip resistance while withstanding temperatures up to 300°C, complemented by a steel shank and full heel breast for additional underfoot support.
