Frequently Asked Questions
What does S3 WR SRC safety rating mean?
The S3 WR SRC rating indicates this boot provides comprehensive workplace protection. The S3 classification includes toe protection tested to 200 Joules impact and 15,000 Newtons compression, an antistatic sole, energy absorbing heel, water-resistant upper, and penetration-resistant midsole. WR confirms the water-resistant upper construction, whilst SRC demonstrates slip resistance on both ceramic tile with cleaning agent and steel with glycerol, providing superior traction across multiple surface types.
Is the Amblers FS006C Apex suitable for outdoor work?
Yes, the Amblers FS006C Apex is specifically designed for outdoor working environments. The water-resistant leather upper protects against moisture during extended outdoor exposure, whilst the penetration-resistant steel midsole guards against sharp objects commonly found on construction sites and outdoor work areas. The slip-resistant SRC rated outsole provides excellent traction on wet and slippery surfaces, making this boot ideal for construction, building projects, agriculture, and outdoor maintenance work.
Does the Amblers FS006C Apex run true to size?
Yes, customer feedback and professional testing confirm the Amblers FS006C Apex fits true to size. Workers can confidently order their regular UK shoe size without sizing adjustments. The boot features a standard fit design with adequate toe room and a secure heel cup. For workers who require additional width or have broader feet, Amblers offers wide-fit alternatives in their safety boot range.
What is the difference between composite and steel toe caps?
Composite toe caps like those fitted to the Amblers FS006C Apex are manufactured from non-metallic materials such as carbon fibre, Kevlar, or fibreglass. They provide the same 200 Joules impact protection as steel toe caps but offer several advantages including lighter weight, no thermal conductivity in cold environments, and no interference with metal detectors at security checkpoints. Composite toe caps meet the identical EN ISO 20345:2011 safety requirements whilst delivering enhanced comfort during extended wear.
Can the Amblers FS006C Apex be worn in warehouses and logistics environments?
Absolutely. The Amblers FS006C Apex is well suited for warehouse operations and logistics environments. The composite toe cap provides essential protection against impact from falling objects and equipment, whilst the slip-resistant SRC rated outsole ensures safe movement across warehouse floors that may have cleaning agents or moisture. The antistatic protection makes this boot suitable for environments with sensitive electronic equipment, and the shock-absorbing dual density PU sole reduces fatigue during long shifts spent walking and standing on concrete floors.
