Flite® - A Revolution in Protective Footwear™
Made from Aerex 1.5.5® – a proprietary, chemical-resistant, thermally-insulative, microcellular polymer, resulting in boots that are over 40% lighter compared to most steel toe PVC and rubber knee boots. Lightweight upper, cushioned heel, slip-resistant nitrile rubber outsole and composite toe provide superior comfort and safety.
Ideal Applications: Food Processing (Dairy, Meats, Vegetables, and Refrigerated/Frozen Foods), Petrochemical, Farm/Ag, Chemical
Chemical Resistance: Superior chemical resistance to fats, oils, hydrocarbons, certain acids, and caustics
● 15-inch height upper with composite safety toe and Safety-Loc outsole
● Composite safety toe meets ASTM F2413 M/I/C EH* and will not set off metal detectors
● Durable, seamless upper is 100% liquidproof
● Slip resistant per ASTM F3445, the standard specification as of July 2021
● Safety-Loc nitrile rubber outsole for superior grip on dry, wet and contaminated surfaces
● Tiny air bubbles in the material keep feet warm in cold and cool in heat
● Anti-fatigue Aerex 1.5.5™: Studies show that every pound reduced in footwear weight is like 5lbs off your back and 5% less energy expended**
● Calf-Relief Topline™ (CRT) for easier on and off and roomier calf space
● Beveled heel for reduced back and leg strain
● Tread wear indicators to show when half the tread has worn away
● Achieved a passing result for
*Electrical Hazard soles and heels are intended to reduce the hazards due to accidental contact with live electrical circuits, electrically energized conductors, parts or apparatus. Electric Hazard soles and heels are not intended for wear in those work environments where volatile chemicals or explosives may be present, where conductive footwear is required.
Warning: Electric Hazard features of the soles and heels will deteriorate in wet environments, and when worn with excessive wear on the soles and heels.

Material that is self-insulating and speaks directly to the numerous studies that show every 1 lb. reduction in footwear weight is like 5 lb. off your back and 5% less energy expended.
