DEWALT 1 Pair of PU Comfort Insoles

Product Information

Under the hood, there’s a sturdy, penetration-resistant steel midsole to complement the steel toe box. What’s more, you don’t have to worry about rolling the boot as there’s padded TPU heel support built right in. There’s more padding on the cuff for a comfortable fit, flanked by dual bootstraps for easy donning. DeWalt Rigger at a glance It’s also important to be aware that the Rigger’s rubber insole has not been tested for heat resistance. If this is important to you, the Goodyear welt allows for HRO sole replacements. But, you might be better off considering another boot, as well. When it comes to your safety, nothing less than the best will do. You need the most durable materials, the best construction, and hard-wearing designs that will meet or exceed the safety standards your workplace demands.

These are great boots for when powerful protection is needed, but you can’t have metal weighing you down. DeWalt’s design for the Hammer is clearly rated for hard service, and it’s not unusual to get two or more years of life out of a single pair. Whether you’re a plumber, electrician, or mechanic, you’ll find ample resistance against the hazards of the job. The insoles we tested had unique constructions that were specific to what they aimed to provide. Some had many features, with targeted areas of padding, the use of multiple different materials, and claims to cure all foot pain, while others were simpler in design and function.

Why Use the DeWalt PU Insoles?

Regularly condition the leather. Every few weeks, you’ll want to apply some wax or oil conditioner to the leather uppers to keep them supple and strong. You should do this immediately after cleaning. But there are many safety boots which don’t use steel, so what makes DeWalt’s Hammer special? How about the brown crazy horse leather upper–the same hardwearing stuff they use in horse saddles. Not only is it tough as nails, it’ll look great as it ages, making you look forward to putting your boots on in the morning.

For starters, Camden’s steel toe actually exceeds the American ATSM standards, and will effectively guard your feet against all manner of kinetic damage. Similarly, they meet U.S. testing for electrical protection vs. open circuits. Not every boot has a gusset, but those that do typically employ them as moisture barriers, which connect the tongue to the shaft.

Available Options

It starts with the dual-density insole, which marries extreme hard-wearing PU with a special memory foam that cradles your feet with support as you walk, lift, and climb. Beneath that is an injection-moulded Phylon midsole, offering powerful abrasion resistance and superior energy absorption. Finally, it comes together upon dual PU/rubber outsoles, which feature SRA slip resistance and 300° heat resistance. The DeWalt Work Boot Insoles come in one universal cut-to-fit size and will fit anyone up to Size 12. To trim the insole down to your size, remove your current insole from your shoe and align it with the DeWalt insole. Using the old insole as a guide, trim the DeWalt insole until it is cut down to the same size. Key Features and Benefits Insoles come in all shapes and sizes, with some being geared toward providing more comfort, while others are geared towards providing more support or relief for foot-related pain. While this review can serve as a guideline for what the best insoles are like, if you suffer from foot pain, it should not be a replacement for medical advice from an expert in foot care. If you are not used to arch support, it is recommended that you give your feet time to adjust to your new insoles by wearing them for longer and longer each day before you decide they are not for you.

Also, while the Camdens are indeed rugged, they’re necessarily more streamlined so as to offer up a greater sense of style. This means they’re not as hard-wearing as other entries on our list, so be sure to keep this in mind if durability is your top concern. While this is a general term to describe how a boot is made, the industry often uses it as a term to specifically denote how the uppers join to the sole. There are three primary methods used in boot making:

Finally, we come to the Camden, DeWalt’s answer to anyone looking for industrial footwear that doesn’t look too bulky or technical. Camden may be easy on the eyes, but they’re tough against the hazards which threaten your feet on or off the job. The Hammer’s soft toe and EVA midsole allow for a lightweight boot (just 1.8kg), and you wouldn’t be uncomfortable walking 10 miles a day or more in these. The tough, full-grain leather does take a little bit of time to break in, but once they do you’ll never find a better fit. That said, if you’re a half size, you’ll probably want to size up; the crazy horse leather isn’t going to stretch a whole lot! Be aware that the toe cap isn’t as spacious as some may like, so keep this in mind when choosing your safety boot. The Spenco Cross Trainer insoles, on the other hand, are much thinner in profile while still having an impressive level of cushioning with their stretchy, nylon fabric construction. For those who want comfort without sacrificing space, these are a good choice. The Dr. Scholl's Plantar Fasciitis insoles are comfortable and have slight support in the arch and heel for those who suffer from the common plantar fasciitis, which can be very painful. The cushion in these orthotics is designed to help ease the pain associated with this injury and to provide simple support to the plantar fascia. Unlike many rigger boots which flood the market as fashion items, the DeWalt Rigger work boots are the real deal. Conforming to EN-345 safety standards, these feature both a steel toe and ample ankle support, guarding you on the job.
