Product Overview
The Steelite™ Steel Leather Ankle Boot is a robust solution for professionals requiring certified foot protection without compromising on durability or comfort. These S3-rated safety boots are constructed with high-quality full-grain leather, providing a natural water-resistant barrier that ensures your feet remain dry in damp environments. Built to meet the EN ISO 20345:2022 S3 SR standard, this boot offers a comprehensive safety package for demanding workplaces where floor conditions can be unpredictable.
Key Features
- 200 Joule Steel Toecap: The integrated steel toecap provides essential protection against impact and compression, safeguarding your feet from falling objects or heavy equipment in the workspace.
- Protective Steel Midsole: A resilient steel midsole prevents sharp objects, such as nails or shards, from penetrating the sole, offering peace of mind on construction sites or in industrial kitchens.
- Full-Grain Leather Upper: The use of premium leather creates a water-resistant exterior, maintaining a professional appearance while keeping moisture out during long shifts.
- Dual Density PU/TPU Sole: This hardwearing sole configuration combines the cushioning of polyurethane with the extreme durability and slip resistance of TPU, ensuring stability on various surfaces.
Design & Performance
In terms of performance, these boots are designed to be substantial and sturdy, offering the structural integrity required for heavy-duty roles. The dual-density sole is specifically engineered to provide slip resistance (SR), which is vital for maintaining traction on slippery floors. The internal design focuses on ergonomics, ensuring that even though the boot is built from tough materials, it remains comfortable for the duration of a full working day. The combination of full-grain leather and a technical outsole makes this a high-performance choice for anyone facing a variety of physical tasks.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation, such as embroidery or printing, on safety footwear. This is to ensure the structural integrity of the protective materials is never compromised. Adding stitching or heat-applied logos could potentially weaken the water-resistant leather or interfere with the safety certifications that these boots have achieved. At MyWorkwear, we prioritise your safety and the compliance of your PPE above all else.
Use Cases
These boots are particularly well-suited for professionals in the catering and hospitality sectors, including chefs, bakers, and butchers, where spillages and heavy equipment are daily hazards. They are also an excellent choice for general maintenance, logistics, and light construction work where a sturdy, water-resistant boot is a prerequisite for the job.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please consider that safety boots are often worn with thicker thermal or cushioned work socks. If you are between sizes, we generally recommend opting for the larger size to ensure adequate room for movement and to prevent the steel toecap from causing discomfort during prolonged wear. Ensure the laces are securely fastened to provide the necessary ankle support.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your safety boots, it is essential to keep them clean and well-maintained. We recommend regularly removing dirt and debris with a soft brush or damp cloth. Allowing mud to dry and remain on the leather can lead to cracking, which compromises the water-resistant properties of the full-grain material.
Avoid drying your boots near direct heat sources such as radiators or heaters. Excessive heat can cause the leather to become brittle and may affect the bond of the dual-density sole. Instead, allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area. Periodic treatment with a quality leather conditioner will help keep the leather supple and extend the life of your footwear.
