Product Overview
The Ridge Composite Mid Boot S3S ESD SR FO is a sophisticated piece of safety footwear designed for those who require more than just standard protection. This mid-height ankle boot is engineered to provide substantial support and protection to the ankle area, ensuring stability on uneven surfaces. One of its most distinctive technical attributes is the innovative wire lace system, which replaces traditional laces to provide a more precise fit, faster lacing, and a quick-release mechanism for those who value efficiency in their work day.
Key Features
- Innovative Wire Lace System: This system allows for rapid donning and doffing, while providing a uniform pressure across the foot for enhanced comfort and a secure fit.
- ESD Properties: Designed specifically for environments where static discharge must be controlled, protecting both the wearer and sensitive electronic components.
- Superior Slip Resistance (SR): The outsole is engineered to provide exceptional grip, significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls on hazardous surfaces.
- Fuel and Oil Resistant Outsole (FO): The PU/PU construction ensures the sole remains intact and functional even when in frequent contact with hydrocarbons.
- Protective Ankle Height: The mid-boot design offers critical lateral support and protection against impacts to the ankle bone.
Design & Performance
Constructed with a high-quality Action Nubuck upper, this boot offers a professional appearance without sacrificing durability. The material is chosen for its resilience in demanding work environments. Underneath, the dual-density PU/PU outsole provides a balanced combination of shock absorption and wear resistance. As a substantial, sturdy boot, it is built to withstand the rigours of daily professional use while maintaining the flexibility required for extended periods of standing or walking.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we prioritise your safety above all else. This product is sold without customisation because it is a certified piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Any secondary processes, such as heat-pressing or embroidery, could potentially compromise the technical integrity of the materials or interfere with the boot's safety certifications, such as its ESD properties or water-resistant capabilities.
Use Cases
This boot is an excellent choice for professionals working in technical and service-oriented sectors. It is particularly suited for those in the catering and kitchen industries, as well as hotel and restaurant staff who require slip resistance and support. Its ESD properties also make it highly suitable for electronics manufacturing or any environment where static sensitive equipment is handled.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the type of work socks you intend to wear, as the wire lace system allows for a very snug, tailored fit that can be adjusted throughout the day as your feet naturally expand. If you are between sizes, the secure nature of the wire system often allows for a comfortable fit in the larger size without the heel slippage associated with traditional boots.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your boots, regular maintenance is essential. Start by ensuring that the wire lace system is kept free from grit and debris; a build-up of dirt can cause premature wear on the mechanism and the wire itself. Wipe the Action Nubuck upper with a damp cloth after use to prevent contaminants from setting into the fabric.
It is crucial that you do not dry these boots near direct heat sources such as radiators or heaters. Excessive heat can cause the PU outsole to become brittle and may lead to the Nubuck upper cracking or shrinking. Allow them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area to preserve the structural integrity of the boot and ensure the safety features remains effective.
