Portwest FC39 Steel Nubuck Safety Boots with Wire Lace System
Built for demanding work environments:
The Portwest FC39 are safety boots designed for professionals working across construction, engineering, manufacturing, and industrial environments. The full-grain nubuck leather upper is naturally resistant to fuel and oil, making these boots well suited to machinery and workshop settings where contamination is a daily concern.
One-handed fastening for a secure fit:
The innovative wire lace system allows for fast, one-handed adjustment and a quick-release mechanism, so the boots can be put on and taken off without sitting down or struggling with laces. The angled top line is engineered for better leg flexibility, and the padded collar adds comfort during long shifts.
Protective from the ground up:
A steel toecap rated to 200J impact and 15kN compression sits alongside a penetration-resistant steel midsole. The PU/rubber outsole carries full HRO certification, withstanding 300°C contact for 60 seconds, and the non-slip ceramic tread delivers reliable grip on oily and greasy surfaces. The scuff cap (SC) adds wear resistance at the toe, while the bellows tongue blocks water, grit, and debris from entering the boot.
Comfort over long shifts:
A premium EVA footbed cushions each step, and the energy-absorbing heel (20J) reduces fatigue on hard floors and uneven ground. The antistatic construction (A) and non-magnetic, nickel and ferrous-free specification make the FC39 suitable for environments where static discharge or magnetic interference is a risk.
