The first major freeze of a winter is not exactly a nice thought for anyone who has to work outdoors all day, and absolutely dreadful if your feet are cold. But who’s talking about cold feet?

Just for these conditions, Bata Industrials offers various safety shoes and boots in its range that help wearers prevent having cold, wet feet and the other discomforts that go along with these.

Safety boots with artificial fur
With the Tonto and Taho safety boots, you can keep your feet dry even in deep snow. Thanks to the fullgrain leather boots with a minimum amount of stitching, water cannot penetrate (water-repellant for up to 60 minutes). The boots are also made with artificial fur. The lining ensures the retention of heat, but also transports perspiration back out to the exterior of the shoe. The rubber outsole insulates feet from the cold, and is characterised by its good anti-slip properties, offering optimal slip resistance even on slippery surfaces.

Gore-Tex for wet working conditions
People who work in humid or wet environments (for 60 minutes or longer) need shoes that are waterproof in order to keep their feet warm and dry. Bata Industrials supplies safety shoes equipped with Gore-Tex laminate just for these conditions. This material ensures that the shoe is waterproof, yet at the same time, can breathe.

Matching socks
When you wear boots, also be sure to wear long socks containing wool which insulate, keeping the heat in. For example, the Thermo ML sock with virgin wool and Pro-Cool to keep feet warm and dry. For the Gore-Tex models, there is a special 100% synthetic sock, Thermo MS 1, which is extremely strong and warm. Perfect for anyone working in cold conditions.
