NEO TOOLS Occupational Ankle Boots O2 SRC, Nubuck, Size 45

On busy workshop floors and in logistics hubs, professionals need footwear that keeps pace with long shifts and unpredictable surfaces. The NEO TOOLS Occupational Ankle Boots O2 SRC in size 45 are built for exactly that: a lace-up nubuck leather upper with a breathable textile lining, a dual-density PU sole, and SRC-rated slip resistance. Certified to EN ISO 20347:2012 as O2 SRC, these boots provide water-resistant protection, antistatic properties, and energy absorption in the heel—all without a protective toe cap, making them ideal for non-safety-critical work environments where comfort and durability matter most.

Why choose it

These ankle boots combine the ruggedness of nubuck leather with the flexibility of a dual-density PU sole, offering excellent shock absorption and slip resistance on wet or oily floors.

The O2 SRC rating ensures reliable performance in occupational settings where a safety toe is not required but slip resistance and antistatic properties are essential.

• Warehouse and logistics operations
• Light industrial and assembly work
• Facility maintenance and cleaning
• Driving and delivery services
• General occupational use where comfort and slip resistance are priorities
