The Blundstone #997 safety boots are packed with features including:

 

  • WATER-RESISTANT UPPER: Premium leather is treated to provide extra water resistance and is particularly suitable for muddy conditions.

  • RUBBER OUTSOLE—300°C HEAT RESISTANT: The outsole is heat resistant to temperatures up to at least 300°C. It has a very high insulating value, providing short term resistance to melting and cracks at higher than normal temperature ranges that may be encountered in an industrial environment.

  • LUXURY PU FOOTBED: Our ultimate Comfort Arch footbed is made from soft polyurethane, covered with a full length cushion of foam polyurethane, topped by a long-wearing mesh cover. This footbed has an airflow and moisture-wicking system and also includes a large pad of XRD® Extreme Impact Protection under the ball of the foot.
  • THERMAL REGULATING BAMBOO LINING: Top-of-the-range bamboo lining is designed specially to keep your feet cool and comfortable. It’s thermal regulating, deodorizing, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, breathable and quick drying.

  • ELECTRICAL HAZARD RESISTANT: Where there is a risk that a person may come in contact with a live electrical circuit, electrical shock hazard footwear will provide the best possible protection against electrical shock hazard. The boot is certified to ASTM F2413-18. Clause 5.6 for electrical shock hazard resistance.

  • STEEL TOE CAP: Broad fitting Type 1 steel toe cap tested to resist a 200 joule impact. Steel is the safest toe cap material available, providing the highest level of resistance to impacts, punctures, cuts, and rolling side compression.

With all the safety and comfort features you could ask for — the #997 is a tradie's best mate.
