FIRE HUNTER EXTREME Upper Materials The upper material of the HAIX® Fire Hunter Xtreme is made of smooth leather with a recessed handle at the top on each side to make it easy to pull the boots on in a hurry. Combined with the inner lining, the Fire Hunter Xtreme also gives extra protection against chemicals and bloodborne pathogens. The leather is a HAIX® Sun Reflect specialty leather to keep your feet cool, even in direct sunlight. The HAIX® AF Ankle Flex system gives your ankles the support they need but also the flexibility to kneel, operate equipment, and bend as needed. The exterior rubber toe cap (profiled) gives the boot extra abrasion resistance. Insole, Lining, and Footbed With the Secura Liner®, you can be assured that your liner will stay in place rather than wrinkling or pulling out. HAIX® Climate System helps your feet stay dry and cool even when your surroundings are hot. A Ladder shank has been added to give more support when having to stand on ladder rungs. Your toes are safely protected via the steel protective toe cap. Padded shin protection ensures that your feet and legs suffer as little damage as possible during the workday. For protection against nails and other sharps, HAIX® Fire Hunter Xtreme comes with steel puncture protective soles. The CROSSTECH® material makes the boot both breathable and waterproof. Sole HAIX® MSL (Micro soft light) PU foam is throughout the sole of the boot; the PU material is injected throughout the sole to give it optimal shock absorption and insulation from hot and cold temperature extremes. The slip resistant and highly heat resistant rubber sole will keep you on your feet when duty calls.
