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
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.
