Steel Toe Capped Boots
Foot injuries account for nearly 7% of all workplace injuries so it really isn’t worth risking your health with an inadequate pair of work boots.
Our collection of steel toe cap boots will protect you from such injuries.
Steel toe caps are not the only option to keep your toes protected though. We also offer metal-free safety boots, made with composite reinforced toes. These boots will still protect your toes from heavy impacts or dropped objects but they are also static resistant for wear in ESD environments. You won’t have to worry about them triggering metal detectors either.
If you are working in an environment where a risk assessment has assessed there to be foot hazards in your workplace then it is legal to wear steel or composite boots.
Is it not technically illegal to drive in steel toe capped boots, however, it is advised against. This is due to them being heavy and stiff that can reduce control on the pedals. If the boots affect your ability to drive safely you could be charged with driving without due care and attention.
The main differences between normal work boots and steel toe cap boots are that normal workboots are a lot lighter and flexible where steel toe caps as the name suggests are reinforced at the front with a metal cap to protect against foot hazards.
Yes, even though steel is generally stronger, composite steel caps boots are comparable to steel tow caps meeting industry standards and requirements. They can be more comfortable in better temperature regulations and weight reduction which can be downsides of steel toe caps.
