Product Overview
The Metatarsal S3 M SRC is a substantial and robust safety boot designed for those working in high-risk, heavy-duty environments. This is not your standard industrial footwear; it is a sophisticated piece of personal protective equipment engineered to safeguard the wearer against a multitude of site hazards. Finished in a professional black, it combines a water-resistant upper with advanced internal structural reinforcements to ensure that you remain protected and comfortable throughout the longest shifts.
Key Features
- Integrated Metatarsal Protection: This provides an essential shield for the delicate bones in the top of the foot, crucial for heavy-duty industries where falling objects are a constant risk.
- 200 Joules Steel Toe-Cap: A high-strength steel cap protects the toes from heavy impact and compression, ensuring peace of mind in hazardous zones.
- Puncture Resistant Steel Midsole: The integrated steel midsole prevents sharp objects like nails or shards from penetrating the sole, protecting the underside of your foot.
- Water Resistant Upper: The specially treated material prevents water penetration, keeping your feet dry and comfortable even in damp working conditions.
- SmellStop Antiodor Lining: This antibacterial treatment prevents the growth of bacteria and fungus, keeping the boots hygienic and reducing unpleasant odours over time.
- Hydrocarbon Resistant Outsole: The sole is designed to resist damage from oils and chemicals, maintaining its grip and structural integrity in industrial environments.
Design & Performance
The design philosophy of this boot centres on reducing wearer fatigue without compromising on safety. The use of Antifatigue AirTech and Tpu-Skin technology in the outsole allows for a more flexible and cushioned experience, which is particularly beneficial when standing on hard surfaces for extended periods. This substantial, sturdy boot provides the stability required for heavy lifting and navigating uneven terrain.
Inside, the SmellStop lining provides a breathable environment that actively fights bacteria, while the inclusion of an orthopaedic made-to-measure footbed (complying with DGUV112-191) allows for custom comfort levels rarely found in standard safety footwear. The shock absorption in the heel region further assists in protecting joints from the repetitive impact of walking on concrete floors.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take safety standards very seriously. This Metatarsal S3 M SRC boot is a certified piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Applying embroidery or heat-applied transfers to safety footwear can compromise the structural integrity of the materials, potentially affecting the water resistance or the fire-retardant properties of the leather. To ensure you remain fully protected and that the boots meet EN ISO 20345: 2011 standards, we provide this item without customisation.
Use Cases
These boots are specifically designed for heavy-duty industrial sectors. They are the ideal choice for workers in construction, demolition, metal fabrication, and heavy manufacturing where the risk of falling heavy components necessitates superior metatarsal protection. They are also well-suited for any environment where hydrocarbon resistance and puncture protection are mandatory safety requirements.
Why MyWorkwear
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been a trusted partner for businesses across the UK. Based in Telford, our decades of expertise mean we only stock products that meet our rigorous standards for durability and performance. We understand the technical requirements of different trades, ensuring you receive footwear that is not only fit for purpose but built to last.
Practical Advice
Given the substantial nature of these boots and the integrated steel components, they may feel slightly heavier than standard footwear initially. We recommend wearing a high-quality, moisture-wicking work sock to complement the SmellStop lining. Ensure the boots are laced securely to the top to engage the metatarsal protection correctly and provide maximum ankle support.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your safety footwear is essential for ensuring the longevity of its protective features. Regularly removing mud and debris with a soft brush will prevent the upper material from cracking or degrading prematurely, which could otherwise lead to water ingress.
If the boots become wet, allow them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. Excessive heat can cause the materials to become brittle and may affect the bond of the Tpu-Skin outsole. Periodically treating the uppers with a suitable leather conditioner will keep the material supple and maintain its water-resistant properties.
