The Portwest FC08 is a lightweight men’s safety trainer with a knitted upper made from recycled PET bottles. It suits work where you need toe and underfoot protection along with the lighter feel of a trainer.
The construction is 100% metal free, so it is a practical choice where you pass through metal detectors during the working day. The outsole resists fuel and oil and grips on ceramic and steel surfaces.
