IF you’re working in the fisheries and aquaculture industries, you need: comfortable and durable gumboots with maximum grip, slip resistance and waterproof protection. After 80 years of delivering superior quality safety boots to a wide range of industries, Wayne knows a thing or two about gumboots.
Since 1940, it has focused on what it does best – gumboots, and gumboots alone –emerging as specialists in the field and pioneers in both innovation and quality. PureMax polyurethane boots are at the cutting edge of comfort and protection, the benefits needed when working in cold, wet conditions.
All-day comfort
With directly enhanced thermal properties, the Pure Max provides excellent insulation against both heat and cold. The Wayne manufacturing method has been carefully honed to deliver a lightweight boot without compromising on durability and protection, with comfort further enhanced with a PU footbed insole.
Long-lasting durability
Due to their inherent strength and unique characteristics, PU boots last up to three times longer than regular PVC boots. To further guarantee a long lifetime of service, the seams in the lining are ultra-sonically welded, imbuing the boots with superior abrasion resistance. As a result, the Pure Max has been flex tested to over 900 000 flexes with no significant deterioration.
Unrivalled protection
Beyond the inherent protective qualities of PU, boots are subjected to a multi-stage curation, which gives them a protective ‘outer skin’ that forms a barrier against chemicals, dirt, oil and water. The sole has been designed to ensure the highest possible SRC slip resistance rating, providing peace of mind when working in wet conditions, as well as a self-cleaning outsole with torsion control for uneven terrain.
To keep feet dry and hygienic, PU boots are enhanced with antimicrobial and anti-fungal treatments, with moisture wicking properties that expel moisture away from the foot.
