The Portwest FC39 Steel Nubuck Ankle Boot is an S3 safety boot with a twist action wire lace system, so you can tighten it and release it quickly. It has a steel toecap, a pierce resistant steel midsole and a full grain nubuck upper. It suits work where you want a secure fit and a boot that keeps out dirt and debris.

Key features

  • Quick, secure fit: a quick release wire lace system with a twist action dial gives an even fit across the foot.
  • Steel protection: a protective steel toecap and a pierce resistant steel midsole.
  • Tough sole: a PU and rubber sole that is heat resistant to 300°C, oil and water resistant, and slip resistant.
  • Keeps dirt out: a bellows tongue helps keep out dirt, debris and water, and a scuff cap protects the toe.
  • Comfort all day: a cushioned footbed, padded collar and energy absorbing seat region.

About the wire lace system. The wire is double strength for durability. The dial has a raised texture for better grip and a rubberised chassis to resist abrasion, and a push/pull clasp releases it quickly. Central cavities spread the tension across the top of the foot for a level fit.

Built to last. The full grain nubuck upper is backed by a double sewn counter and a protective scuff cap. The angled top line gives a better fit and lets the leg flex, and the boot is anti-static.

What S3 means. Under EN ISO 20345:2022, S3 footwear has a closed heel area, energy absorption in the seat region, anti-static properties and resistance to water penetration and absorption. It adds perforation resistance and a cleated outsole. Plain S3, without an L or S, means a metal insert (type P).

Colours and sizes. FC39 comes in Black and Wheat, both in UK sizes 3 to 13 (EU 36 to 48), including UK 6.5 and 10.5.

Care

Clean regularly with a good proprietary cleaning product, never a caustic one. Let wet boots dry naturally somewhere cool and dry; do not force dry. Check the stitching, tread and sole bond before use, and replace the boots if they are damaged or the toe has taken a heavy impact.
