Frequently Asked Questions

What is a dealer boot and why is it convenient?

A dealer boot, also known as a Chelsea boot, features a pull-on design with elastic side panels that allow quick and easy entry and removal without laces or zippers. The Amblers FS5 is ideal for workers who need to remove their footwear frequently throughout the day, such as mechanics working on vehicles, delivery drivers entering homes or businesses, warehouse workers transitioning between areas, or anyone who values time-saving convenience. The elasticated gussets stretch to accommodate your foot during entry, then provide a secure, comfortable fit during wear. This design eliminates the time spent lacing and unlacing traditional boots, making the FS5 perfect for workers who prioritize quick access while maintaining essential safety protection.

What does SBP SRA rating mean?

The SBP SRA rating under EN ISO 20345:2011 provides essential safety protection at an economical level. SBP includes steel toe cap protection tested to 200 Joules impact resistance and 15,000 Newtons compression resistance, plus a penetration resistant midsole tested to 1100 Newtons that protects against sharp objects like nails and metal shards. SRA indicates slip resistance tested on wet ceramic tile with cleaning agent. This makes the FS5 suitable for light construction, warehousing, automotive workshops, and light industrial environments where basic toe and penetration protection with slip resistance are required, but additional features like water resistance or antistatic properties are not necessary. For environments requiring higher protection levels, consider boots with S1P, S3, or higher ratings.

Does the elastic side panel compromise safety or security?

No, the elastic side panels on the Amblers FS5 are engineered to provide both convenience and security. The high-quality elasticated gussets create a snug, secure fit around the ankle and lower leg, ensuring the boot stays firmly in place during work activities. The boot maintains full SBP safety certification with steel toe cap and penetration resistant midsole, meeting the same rigorous safety standards as lace-up boots. The elastic panels accommodate various leg widths while maintaining stability, and the robust construction ensures the boot provides reliable protection throughout demanding workdays without any compromise in safety performance. The pull-on design is trusted by workers worldwide in light industrial and workshop environments.

Does the Amblers FS5 run true to size?

Yes, the Amblers FS5 fits true to size. We recommend ordering your regular UK shoe size. The elasticated side panels provide flexibility and accommodate various leg widths, ensuring a comfortable fit for different calf sizes. Customer feedback consistently reports the FS5 is comfortable straight out of the box with minimal break-in period required. The elastic gussets stretch during entry and then provide a secure fit around the ankle. The leather upper will conform slightly to your foot during the break-in period for a personalized fit. If you prefer thick work socks or have particularly wide calves, the elastic panels will accommodate this naturally without requiring a larger size.

Is the Amblers FS5 suitable for outdoor construction work?

The Amblers FS5 is primarily designed for light construction, indoor warehousing, workshops, and automotive environments rather than heavy outdoor construction. The SBP rating provides essential toe cap and penetration protection suitable for light construction tasks, but the boot lacks water resistance, which is important for outdoor work in wet conditions. The SRA slip resistance is tested on ceramic tile rather than outdoor surfaces, and the dealer boot design is optimized for convenience in environments where frequent removal is needed. For heavy outdoor construction, wet conditions, or rugged terrain, consider boots with higher protection ratings such as S3 with water resistance and more aggressive tread patterns. The FS5 excels in workshop environments, light industrial facilities, and indoor construction tasks where convenience and basic protection are priorities.
