STEEL BLUE SOUTHERN CROSS ZIP TPU SOLE STEEL TOE GRAPHENE SCUFF CAP BOOT
Description
The Southern Cross® Zip GraphTEC™ is a world first PureGRAPH® Graphene enhanced work boot. Graphene is one of the strongest impermeable semi-metals discovered to date. PureGRAPH® Graphene has been independently tested, with results showing an increase of over 200% in abrasion resistance. Steel Blue’s GraphTEC™ range is designed, developed and made in Australia.
The Southern Cross® Zip GraphTEC™ is a Men’s ankle height, Zip Sided work boot that includes a GraphTEC™ enhanced Scuff Cap and Outsole. The addition of Graphene in the durable TPU Outsole and Scuff Cap provides world leading durability, abrasion resistance and strength. Tests show that Graphene is one million times thinner than a piece of paper, superior in strength to diamonds and 200 times stronger than steel.
This safety boot is crafted from premium Water Resistant Leather and is a popular choice for Construction, Mining and Civil Engineering. The padded collar and tongue offer all day comfort, while the quick release side zip provides convenience. The durable TPU Outsole includes Anti-Static properties, is heat resistant to 130ºC and offers Slip & Oil Resistance.
All Steel Blue boots feature Trisole® Comfort Technology which cushions your feet, knees, hips and lower back from day-to-day fatigue.
The Southern Cross® Zip GraphTEC™ is made from premium leather that has been ethically and environmentally sourced and is available in Black Full Grain or Wheat coloured Nubuck Leather.
Boot Technology
GraphTEC
Steel Blue's GraphTEC range of work boots include a Scuff Cap and TPU Outsole that are enhanced with PureGraph Graphene to provide world leading durability and resistance.
Leather
All Steel Blue boots are made from high quality, long-lasting leather, including Nubuck, Full-Grain, TECtuff®, Suede and more.
Steel Toe Cap
Made from hardened steel for premium toe protection.
TPU Outsole
Our standard durable outsole with heat resistance to 130°C.
Slip & Oil Resistance
All Steel Blue footwear is designed to exceed the Slip resistance requirement in both the AS 2210.3 and EN ISO 20345. Our boots are rated as SRC which means that the footwear has been tested in laboratory conditions on both a ceramic tile floor with a Sodium Laureth Sulfate solution (SLS) and on a steel floor with Glycerine.
Anti-Static
Prevents the build-up of static electricity within your body by dissipating it through the sole.
Water Resistant
A special tanning process treatment means all Steel Blue boots are water resistant.
Scuff Cap
An abrasion resistant, streamlined toe cover that covers more of the boot.
Lace Up
A classic fastening for snug, well-fitting work boots.
Zip Sided
Lace Up for comfort, then use the side zips for quick access.
Fresche QuatLock™
A renewable resource that offers long-term antibacterial and antimicrobial protection against fungus, bacteria and the odours caused by bacteria.
The Materials
Full Grain Leather & Nubuck Leather
Each Leather is specifically chosen to ensure the style of boot is fit for purpose and is ethically and environmentally sourced from members of the Leather Working Group (LWG).
Baltico® Lining
A soft, non-abrasive, hydrophobic material that wicks perspiration away from the foot, enabling the skin to remain cool and dry.
Ortho Rebound® Footbed
Our patented Ortho Rebound® Footbed is uniquely designed to reduce foot fatigue. Made from high quality Polyurethane, it always retains its shape and thickness to ensure support from heel to toe, is antifungal, and the high wicking material keeps your feet cool and dry.
Poron
Strategically placed high-tech Poron® pads are placed in the sole and under your foot’s peak stress areas. We included Poron® in our Trisole® Comfort Technology, which is now the benchmark for safety boots.
