They combine <strong>water-repellent smooth cowhide leather, a GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane, BOA\u00ae Fit System and a technical MICHELIN\u00ae outsole<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The upper is made from <strong>smooth cowhide leather, 2.0\u20132.2 mm thick<\/strong>. Its water-repellent treatment reduces water absorption, while the durable leather construction withstands everyday mechanical stress. The black colour with orange details gives the boots a distinctive professional appearance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane<\/strong> prevents water from entering the boots while allowing moisture vapour to escape. Together with <strong>certified WR waterproof performance for the entire boot<\/strong>, it provides protection when working in rain and wet environments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">An <strong>anatomically shaped HI-POLY insole<\/strong> adds comfort. Made from lightweight polyurethane foam and covered with breathable MESH fabric, it supports the foot, helps cushion movement and has antistatic properties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>MICHELIN\u00ae PU\/RUBBER outsole<\/strong> combines polyurethane and rubber. It resists fuel oils, has antistatic properties and meets the requirements for <strong>SR slip resistance and HRO contact heat resistance<\/strong>. The HRO marking refers to brief contact with a hot surface at 300 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">A <strong>composite safety toe cap and non-metallic Kevlar PL penetration-resistant midsole<\/strong> provide mechanical protection for the toes and feet. The model also features <strong>certified AN ankle protection<\/strong>, which reduces the risk of injury from impacts around the ankle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>BOA\u00ae Fit System<\/strong> allows quick and precise fit adjustment using a dial mechanism, without conventional lace tying. The model meets <strong>EN ISO 20345:2022 \u2013 S7L FO HRO AN SR<\/strong> requirements.<\/p>\n<h3>Areas of use<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>High Safety Shoes CONNECTICUT BOA S7<\/strong> are suitable for construction, industry, assembly, maintenance, logistics, municipal services and outdoor work. They are intended for workplaces requiring waterproof performance, ankle protection and reliable mechanical protection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane and certified WR waterproof performance<\/strong> make the boots suitable for rain, wet construction sites and damp industrial environments. The membrane&#8217;s breathability helps moisture vapour escape during long working shifts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Water-repellent smooth cowhide leather<\/strong> reduces water absorption and provides a durable upper. It is suitable for everyday work involving moisture, abrasion and mechanical stress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>composite safety toe cap, Kevlar penetration-resistant midsole and AN ankle protection<\/strong> protect against different mechanical hazards. These features are useful where falling objects, sharp objects on the ground or impacts around the ankle present a risk.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>MICHELIN\u00ae outsole with SR slip resistance<\/strong> contributes to stability on various working surfaces. Fuel-oil resistance and HRO contact heat resistance are useful during industrial and technical tasks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>BOA\u00ae Fit System<\/strong> enables quick fit adjustments throughout the working day. Despite the waterproof construction, water can enter through the top opening if the boots are submerged. SR slip resistance cannot guarantee protection against slipping on every surface, particularly ice.<\/p>\n<h3>Material Composition and Technical Specifications<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Upper material:<\/strong> Smooth water-repellent cowhide leather, 2.0\u20132.2 mm thick<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Lining:<\/strong> Waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Insole:<\/strong> HI-POLY \u2013 anatomically shaped insole made from lightweight polyurethane foam, covered with breathable MESH fabric, antistatic<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Outsole:<\/strong> MICHELIN\u00ae PU\/RUBBER \u2013 technical polyurethane and rubber outsole, fuel-oil resistant, antistatic, SR slip resistant and HRO contact heat resistant<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Closure:<\/strong> BOA\u00ae Fit System<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Sizes:<\/strong> 39\u201348<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Colour:<\/strong> Black with orange details<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Model:<\/strong> Men&#8217;s \/ Women&#8217;s, high<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Manufacturer:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmfootwear.cz\/index.php\/en\/\">VM Footwear<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Technical features:<\/strong> S7L, FO, HRO, AN, SR, smooth water-repellent cowhide leather, 2.0\u20132.2 mm thick, waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane, certified WR waterproof performance, BOA\u00ae Fit System, anatomically shaped antistatic HI-POLY insole, composite safety toe cap, non-metallic Kevlar PL penetration-resistant midsole, certified AN ankle protection, antistatic properties, heel energy absorption, penetration resistance, fuel-oil resistant outsole, HRO contact heat resistance, SR slip resistance, MICHELIN\u00ae PU\/RUBBER outsole<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Toe protection:<\/strong> Composite safety toe cap<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Midsole protection:<\/strong> Non-metallic Kevlar PL penetration-resistant midsole<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Standard:<\/strong> EN ISO 20345:2022 \u2013 S7L FO HRO AN SR<\/p>\n<h3>Standard Description<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>CONNECTICUT BOA S7<\/strong> has an <strong>S7L FO HRO AN SR classification under EN ISO 20345:2022<\/strong>. This includes toe protection, penetration resistance, whole-shoe waterproof performance, ankle protection and additional protective properties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>composite safety toe cap<\/strong> protects against impact and compression. Under the standard, it must withstand an impact energy of <strong>200 J<\/strong> and a compression force of <strong>15 kN<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>S7L<\/strong> marking identifies safety footwear with certified WR waterproof performance for the entire boot and a non-metallic PL penetration-resistant midsole. It also includes antistatic properties and heel energy absorption.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>Kevlar PL penetration-resistant midsole<\/strong> is tested using a <strong>4.5 mm diameter nail<\/strong>. It reduces the risk of injury from sharp objects on the ground. Penetration protection has limitations, so footwear should be selected according to workplace hazards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>WR waterproof performance<\/strong> means the entire boot has passed a standardised water penetration test. The waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane complements this protection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>AN<\/strong> marking confirms certified ankle protection against impact. The high-cut design and protective construction reduce the risk of injuries around the ankle but cannot prevent every possible injury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>FO<\/strong> marking confirms outsole resistance to fuel oils. The <strong>HRO<\/strong> marking confirms contact heat resistance during a standardised test involving a surface at <strong>300 \u00b0C<\/strong> for a limited period. It does not mean the footwear is suitable for continuous exposure to that temperature.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>SR<\/strong> marking confirms additional slip resistance under EN ISO 20345:2022. Testing involves a ceramic surface with glycerol and does not guarantee equal grip on every surface.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The model has antistatic properties but has no separately specified certified ESD protection. Antistatic footwear is not electrically insulating footwear and is not intended to protect against hazardous electrical voltage.<\/p>\n<h3>Collection Description<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>CONNECTICUT BOA S7<\/strong> belongs to the Safety collection by VM Footwear. It is designed for professionals who need waterproof safety footwear with a durable leather upper, certified ankle protection and a quick fastening system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>smooth cowhide leather, 2.0\u20132.2 mm thick<\/strong>, provides a durable upper. Its water-repellent treatment reduces water absorption, while the GORE-TEX\u00ae membrane adds moisture protection and allows moisture vapour to escape.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>BOA\u00ae Fit System<\/strong> allows quick fit adjustment using a dial mechanism. Wearers can tighten or release the boots without conventional lace tying, making the system practical for everyday work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>anatomically shaped HI-POLY insole<\/strong> is made from lightweight polyurethane foam and covered with breathable MESH fabric. It supports the foot and has antistatic properties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>composite safety toe cap, Kevlar PL penetration-resistant midsole and certified AN ankle protection<\/strong> protect against different mechanical hazards.
