Waterproof boots

DUNLOP Hevea has introduced a new type of agricultural rigger boot which is claimed to be the first on the market to be 100% waterproof.

The Rig-Air boot is made from a polyurethane foam compound which provides insulation – warm feet down to -25C is claimed – and also allows boots to be up to 35% lighter than conventional rubber or leather boot. Dunlop Hevea says the boots have a strong resistance to manure, oils and most chemicals.

Fitted with anti-slip soles and steel toecaps, the Rig-Air boots are available in brown with leather trim. (0151-530 2406)
