Working with high heat applications, such as welding and furnaces, even more safety considerations must be brought into the workplace. Not only are regular PPE requirements still expected to be met to the same high standards expected in every industrial environment, such as high piercing resistance, anti-slip protection, and appropriate support, but the proximity to extremely high heats must also be taken into consideration. Goliath's HM2006WSI series of DDR Foundry Boots were designed together with foundry representatives to create safety footwear that protects the wearer and takes comfort to the next level within this hazardous industry.
The full grain cow leather upper is hydrophobic, waterproof, flame retardant, and still breathable to provide the utmost protection and comfort for the wearer, and with a moisture wicking inner lining and a removable, washable insole, hygiene is also taken into consideration. The quick release Velcro fastening ensures boots can be removed quickly in cases of accident or emergency, reducing the risk of further injuries or accidents. The steel toe cap and steel midsole prevent piercing and drop fall damage, and the high sides of the boots cover the foot all the way up to the ankle, ensuring there is no access for hot, hazardous materials to directly impact the skin.
To fully round out the high protection provided by the HMW2006WSI series, the dual density rubber soling is flame retardant with antistatic properties and excellent shock absorption and cushioning to protect the feet from external factors. The sole pattern is designed to prevent the clogging of materials in the sole of the shoe, preventing materials from cross-contaminating across foundry areas and introducing potentially dangerous material combinations.

The FORGEMAX ankle foundry boot is made of 2.2 - 2.7mm flame retardant, hydrophobic, waterproof and breathable full grain cow hide leather.
