SELECTING THE RIGHT FOOTWEAR​

Please refer to the tongue label to identify the specific safety and protection properties built-in to your pair of REBEL boots or shoes. It is important that the specific style and size of boot or shoe selected for use meets requirements for the environment and application in which it will be used.

Where the environment is not known, it is very important that consultation is carried out between the seller and the purchaser to ensure, where possible, the correct footwear is provided.

It is very important to note that damaged footwear will not provide the necessary protection you require, and they should be replaced immediately if not in the suitable condition to protect your feet.
