Experience the ultimate in rugged durability with the RF880 Exploration, a heavy-duty rigger boot engineered for extreme performance and safety. Built to last in the most demanding conditions, its supreme durability starts with an outsole that is both cemented and stitched, creating a formidable, dual-layered bond for exceptional longevity and steadfast performance. The boot's integrated, moulded nitrile rubber scuff cap provides a powerful shield against abrasion, protecting the toe area and significantly extending the boot's lifespan. A waterproof yet highly breathable microporous membrane ensures your feet stay dry and comfortable by preventing water from entering while allowing heat and moisture vapour to escape through a system of tiny pores, keeping your feet dry and comfortable. The RF880 Exploration is equipped with a lightweight fiberglass toecap, offering robust protection against impacts up to 200 joules, and an exclusively crafted anti-perforation protective midsole from Activ-Step® Footwear Components. This impenetrable layer of defence against sharp objects is achieved without sacrificing the boot's crucial flexibility. Finally, the boot is equipped with an ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) specification, a critical safety feature that safely dissipates static electricity. This is especially vital in volatile environments where a sudden static spark could lead to catastrophic explosions. It also protects sensitive electronic equipment from damage. Built to meet the rigorous demands of the offshore oil and gas industry, the RF880 Exploration's robust and durable features make it the ideal choice for any heavy-duty industrial applications where toughness is non-negotiable.
We guide our materials choices with a clear "Better Materials Framework," committing to a new era of comfort and sustainability. Our Activ-Step Bio-based insole, made with natural rubber, offers supreme underfoot comfort and shock absorption, while actively reducing our reliance on fossil fuel-based plastics. This commitment to a greener future is enhanced by a sock liner made from 100% recycled polyester, giving new life to waste and keeping it out of landfills. We also utilise Leather Working Group-audited tanneries and recycled materials wherever possible, ensuring our production processes are as conscious and responsible as possible. Experience unparalleled comfort with a conscience.
