The Portwest FC61 is a low-cut nubuck leather safety shoe for work in varied environments, including wet conditions. Its composite toecap and composite midsole give underfoot and toe protection with a completely metal-free build, so it suits workplaces with metal detectors.
A dual density sole unit and an energy absorbing seat region help cushion each step. The outsole is slip resistant, resists fuel and oil, and is heat resistant to 300ºC.
