Product Overview
The Result Workguard R340X Defence safety boot is a dependable, classic Chukka-style footwear solution designed for those who require robust protection without sacrificing value. These boots are engineered to meet the rigours of the modern workplace, offering a substantial build that prioritises safety and longevity. By combining traditional leather construction with modern safety components, Result has created a boot that is as practical as it is resilient, ensuring your feet are well-guarded throughout the working day.
Key Features
- Steel Toe Cap and Midsole: The integrated steel toe cap provides essential protection against impact and compression from falling objects, while the steel midsole acts as a barrier against sharp underfoot hazards, ensuring comprehensive penetration resistance.
- S1P SRA Certification: These boots conform to the EN 20345:2011 S1P SRA safety standard, giving you the assurance that they have been tested for slip resistance on ceramic surfaces and offer essential antistatic properties and energy absorption.
- Dual-Density PU Sole: The Black and Orange polyurethane sole is designed for durability and grip, offering resistance to oils and slips to keep you stable on various floor types.
- Embossed Split Leather Upper: The upper is crafted from sturdy split leather, providing a hard-wearing exterior that can withstand the scuffs and scrapes typical of a busy site environment.
- Customisable Lacing Options: Each pair comes with three sets of laces in Orange, Orange/Black, and all Black, allowing you to choose the visibility and style that best suits your preference.
Design & Performance
The Defence safety boot is built for endurance. The embossed split leather upper provides a tough, protective shell that handles abrasion well, while the EVA black toe section offers additional reinforcement where it is needed most. Inside, the mesh lining facilitates better airflow around the foot, which is essential for comfort during long shifts. The padded collar is a thoughtful addition, reducing friction and pressure around the ankle to prevent discomfort during repetitive movements.
Performance-wise, the dual-density sole is the standout feature. It provides a firm outer layer for durability and a slightly softer inner layer for energy absorption at the heel. This design helps to reduce foot fatigue, making these a sensible choice for professionals who spend the majority of their day on their feet.
Why No Customisation?
As these are safety boots, they are sold as-is and cannot be customised. The structural integrity of a safety boot is paramount; any attempt to embroider or print onto the leather upper could compromise the material's strength and potentially void its safety certifications. We prioritise your physical safety above all else, ensuring these boots perform exactly as the manufacturer intended.
Use Cases
The R340X is a versatile choice for a wide range of industrial and trade roles. It is particularly well-suited for construction workers, warehouse staff, and tradespeople such as electricians or plumbers who require reliable foot protection and slip resistance. The classic black leather design also makes it appropriate for site managers who need to transition between the office and the operational floor.

Practical Advice
These boots are available in a standard size range from 6 to 12. We recommend pairing them with a dedicated pair of work socks to ensure the best fit and to help with moisture management. If you find yourself between sizes, it is often advisable to opt for the larger size to allow for the natural swelling of the feet that occurs during a long day of physical activity.
Caring for your product
To ensure your boots continue to provide maximum protection and comfort, regular maintenance is essential. Neglecting the leather can lead to cracking, which will eventually compromise the boot's water resistance and structural strength.
You should never machine wash or bleach these boots. Harsh chemicals and high-temperature water will destroy the leather's natural oils and damage the adhesives holding the sole in place. Instead, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and wipe the leather with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
Allow your boots to dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them directly on a radiator or near a strong heat source, as this will cause the leather to become brittle and shrink. Finally, regular inspection of the soles is advised; ensuring the tread is free from debris will maintain the slip-resistant properties of the PU sole.
