Frequently Asked Questions

What does non-metallic (NM) construction mean and who needs it?

Non-metallic (NM) construction means the Caterpillar Crossrail contains no metal components whatsoever, including a composite toe cap instead of steel, non-metallic penetration resistant midsole, and non-metallic eyelets and hardware. This makes the boot ideal for workers who regularly pass through metal detectors and security checkpoints such as airport personnel, security professionals, and workers in secure facilities. The NM construction is also essential for electrical workers and utility personnel who require non-conductive footwear when working near live electrical systems. Despite being metal-free, the Crossrail maintains full S3 safety certification with the same level of protection as steel toe boots, proving that non-metallic construction does not compromise safety performance.

What does wide-fit mean and who should choose this boot?

Wide-fit safety footwear is specifically designed for workers with broader feet, providing extra room throughout the boot to prevent discomfort, pinching, and pressure points. The Caterpillar Crossrail is ideal for workers who find standard safety boots too narrow, those with bunions, or anyone who prefers additional space in their work footwear for all-day comfort. The wide-fit design provides generous room in the toe box and midfoot area while maintaining a secure heel fit, ensuring comfort during extended outdoor shifts without compromising safety, support, or the comprehensive protection features including waterproofing, heat resistance, electrical hazard safety, and non-metallic construction.

Is the Caterpillar Crossrail fully waterproof?

Yes, the Caterpillar Crossrail features WP (Waterproof) certification with a fully waterproof membrane construction that provides complete protection against water penetration. This advanced waterproofing system keeps feet completely dry even during prolonged exposure to wet conditions, heavy rain, standing water, and damp working environments. Unlike water resistant boots that only protect against light moisture, the WP rating ensures the Crossrail is suitable for outdoor construction work in all weather, utilities maintenance, and any environment where complete waterproof protection is essential throughout extended shifts. The sealed waterproof membrane works in conjunction with the premium leather upper to provide reliable all-weather protection while maintaining the non-metallic construction.

What does S3 HRO FO SRC WP NM rating mean?

This comprehensive safety rating provides multiple layers of protection in a metal-free design. S3 under EN ISO 20345:2011 includes composite toe cap (200 Joules impact resistance), non-metallic penetration resistant midsole, water resistant upper, antistatic properties, and energy absorbing heel. HRO adds heat resistance up to 300°C for high-temperature environments. FO provides fuel and oil resistant outsole with electrical hazard protection. SRC indicates the highest level of slip resistance on both wet ceramic tile (SRA) and steel with glycerol (SRB). WP confirms fully waterproof construction. NM indicates completely non-metallic construction for metal detector compatibility. This makes the Crossrail suitable for demanding outdoor construction, utilities work, security environments, and industrial facilities requiring metal-free footwear.

Does the Caterpillar Crossrail run true to size?

Yes, the Caterpillar Crossrail fits true to size in the wide-fit specification. We recommend ordering your regular UK shoe size. The wide-fit design provides extra room throughout the boot, particularly in the toe box and midfoot areas, while maintaining a secure fit at the heel for stability on outdoor terrain. The composite toe cap provides a more spacious toe box compared to steel toe boots, enhancing comfort without compromising protection. Customer feedback consistently reports the Crossrail is comfortable straight out of the box with minimal break-in period required. The waterproof membrane and non-metallic construction do not affect the internal fit or sizing. If you wear very thick outdoor work socks or have exceptionally broad feet, you may consider ordering a half size up for additional comfort.
