Product code: FW19
The Portwest FC14 Compositelite Safety Shoe is a lightweight, 100% non-metallic safety shoe featuring a composite toe cap, composite midsole and full-grain action leather upper. Designed with a dual-density PU sole, it combines slip resistance, durability and comfort in a low-cut profile.
The FC14 is constructed with a durable action leather upper and a low-cut design for flexibility and everyday comfort. A padded collar helps provide a comfortable fit around the ankle, while the lightweight construction reduces overall shoe weight.
A 200-joule composite toe cap is integrated into the design, providing protection without the use of metal components. The shoe also features a pierce-resistant composite midsole, maintaining a lightweight and non-magnetic construction throughout.
The dual-density PU/PU outsole combines durability with underfoot cushioning. An energy-absorbing heel region enhances comfort, while the outsole is fuel and oil resistant and certified to SRC slip resistance standards on ceramic and steel surfaces.
The FC14 is antistatic, water-resistant and fully metal-free, making it suitable for environments where non-metallic footwear is preferred. It is certified to EN ISO 20345 S1PS SR safety standards.
