The Genuine Grip Steel Toe Boots for Men are designed with safety in mind. These protective boots meet the ASTM standards for impact and compression. Standard features include a durable upper made of genuine leather, a breathable mesh lining, a zipper on the medial side and a removable, Walking On Air Footbed. The footbed features a Dri-Lex® top cover to wick away moisture and reduce the growth of bacteria and fungi. The unique construction of the footbed also utilizes aerodynamic air channels to guide air flow from the heel to the forefoot where the most perspiration occurs. Added cushioning and support come from the ergonomic footbed with its anatomical shape, reducing joint and lower back pain. A lightweight midsole offers extra shock absorption while the embedded plastic shank stabilizes each step. Theses steel toe boots for men are finished with the patent pending Genuine Grip Slip Resistant Rubber Outsole for superior traction on wet, greasy and oily floors.
What is Slip Resistance?
- There are currently no "pass/fail" requirements for slip resistance testing - only general industry standards
- On a scale where 0.0 is the absence of friction and 1.0 is very high friction, a higher score means better slip resistance
- A slip resistance value of 0.50 on wet vinyl floors is generally classified as slip resistant
- The US footwear industry quotes a value minimum 0.25 to 0.30 as a safety margin for outsoles tested on quarry tile floors that are greasy, oily, and wet
