GORE-TEX EXTRAGUARD safety footwear is durably waterproof thanks to the GORE-TEX lining technology (bootie construction).
GORE-TEX EXTRAGUARD safety footwear keeps feet comfortable in a broad range of climates by allowing sweat vapour to escape.
GORE-TEX EXTRAGUARD safety footwear protects against commonly occurring chemicals.
Robust, waterproof and breathable safety footwear must offer reliable protection in all working and weather conditions. While wearers were looking for increased lightweight and comfort in their safety footwear, they are often facing the dilemma that robust protection often came with the downside of more weight and less comfort. Now for the first time, the new three-layer EXTRAGUARD Upper technology is paving the way for the construction of a new generation of highly robust and lightweight safety footwear. an innovative solution. When dry , the EXTRAGUARD upper material is 40 % lighter than leather, and due to its low water absorption properties, it remains lightweight even in extremely wet and muddy conditions.
