Boots

Hi, The two retailers you spoke to, were right when they said that the boots should have some blocking material on the sides. In fact the requirement is that the blocking material should be until 1cm from the feather line, which in most of the cases will be covered by the sole. So there's needed to be some blocking material on the sides of the boot, not only on the top of the foot -the metatarsal area.

Sorry, but the boots on this photo are not the experts.

One of these 2 options, which one would you prefer? Chainsaw Boots.pdf

It will be a Class2 boot, with aluminium caps, all the rest will stay as the previous (Sympatex lining, PU/Rubber sole, etc.) except for the colours, it could be another black boot with a different colour replacing the orange, or a brown boot, what would you prefer? It might send a photo of both options next week.

Probably around a couple of months.

No they don't, in fact Stein is Made in Portugal, but different manufacturer.

Hi Bob, If you can wait a while, you might have some news reagarding new boots from Lavoro, with some more improvements, and keeping the same comfort as usual.

The Standard requirements are made to prevent accidents, and according with the European PPE Directive these boots are in conformity and pass the all the cutting tests including the test made on top of the Toe Cap. This is a link to a real video, (not a home made one), of the cutting test made on the boots made by a Certified Technological Centre. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GecC1ZI0Wk[/ame]
