PUNTURE RESISTANT
HYTEST® Puncture Resistant footwear meets ASTM standards. Designed with a steel or fabric plate to reduce the risk of puncture wounds to the bottom of the feet.
STATIC DISSIPATING 35
HYTEST® Static Dissipating 35 (SD 35) footwear is designed to meet ASTM testing standard of 1-35 megohms. The footwear helps to prevent the build-up of static electricity on uninsulated surfaces.
STATIC DISSIPATING 10
HYTEST® Static Dissipating 10 (SD 10) footwear is designed to meet ASTM testing standard of 1-10 megohms. The footwear helps to prevent the build-up of static electricity on uninsulated surfaces.
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
HYTEST® Electrical Hazard footwear meets ASTM standards. They are designed to protect the wearer against open circuits.
WATERPROOF
HYTEST® Waterproof footwear will keep the wet out. Designed with waterproof leathers, sealed seams and many styles with waterproof membrane construction to keep your feet dry.
HEAT RESISTANT
HYTEST® Heat Resistant footwear is designed to be worn in the most extreme environments. Built with heat and flame-resistant materials to provide foot protection in temperatures reaching or exceeding 400˚C.
NON-METALLIC/STEALTH
HYTEST® Stealth footwear is made with a non-metallic construction that will not activate security screening devices.
INSULATED
HYTEST® Insulated footwear protects against the cold and allows you to tackle tough environments.
CONTOURMET
ContourMet™ an internal metatarsal guard that provides superior flexibility and less bulk for unrestricted movement.
FOOTHOLDS
HYTEST® FootHolds® Rubber Outsoles are strategically designed and tested to reduce the risk of slips and falls in the workplace. The built in channels allow liquids to escape while a 90˚ edge at the tip of the tread digs in for added traction.
CONDUCTIVE
HYTEST® Conductive footwear meets ASTM standards. They are designed for use in areas where static build up could be harmful. Not to be used in areas with live electrical circuits.
INSIDE ZIPPER
Inside zipper for ease with taking the footwear on and off without compromising durability.
TERRAPIN METATARSAL GUARD

SUPER-GUARD X
HYTEST® ultimate metatarsal guard system combines two external metatarsal shields with an internal XRD® metatarsal guard. Built for taking high impact while providing great comfort and flexibility.
CORETEMP TEMPURATURE CONTROL LINING
Temperature regulating lining absorbs heat to create a cooling effect and releases the stored heat energy to warm. The continuous cycle manages temperature 24/7 to maintain all-day comfort no matter what the conditions.
XERGY TECHNOLOGY
Anti-fatigue foam midsole absorbs shock and returns energy to increase stamina.
XRD
XRD® Extreme Impact Protection material has been tested to absorb 90% of energy from impact, surpassing the performance of current protection materials in various applications.
3M THINSULATE INSULATION
3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation is warm yet lightweight, powerful yet thin. It helps trap body heat, while allowing moisture to escape.
VIBRAM
Vibram® maximum performance outsoles provide comfort, functionality and durability during work and play.
TECTUFF
TecTuff is abrasion, scuff, oil, stain and water resistant material that lasts 10x longer than traditional leather.
