Demolition work exposes workers to falling materials, sharp debris, rough surfaces and repeated mechanical contact. Compared with general construction work, demolition footwear often needs a more protective and durable configuration for demanding outdoor and heavy-duty conditions.
These high-cut demolition safety boots are designed as a heavy-duty footwear option for demolition, building removal, structural dismantling and related construction work.
The current model is available in yellow and brown, with sizes China 39–47. The yellow version uses a nubuck leather upper, while the brown version uses Crazy Horse leather. Both configurations are designed for abrasion resistance and demanding work environments.
The boot combines a wide composite safety toe, TPU toe bumper, Kevlar puncture-resistant midsole, PU Goodyear-style outsole, deep traction tread and reinforced multi-line stitching.
The current configuration focuses on toe impact protection, puncture protection, abrasion resistance, outsole traction and structural durability.
For buyers requiring specific safety classifications or market-specific testing, the product can be customized according to the required protection level, standard and destination market.
Demolition work involves a different combination of hazards from relatively controlled construction activities.
Workers may be exposed to:
Falling building materials
Broken concrete
Bricks and masonry fragments
Nails and screws
Sharp metal pieces
Wood debris
Rough concrete surfaces
Heavy equipment
Uneven ground
Repeated impact and abrasion
During demolition, materials may fall or move unpredictably, while sharp debris can accumulate across the working surface.
For this reason, demolition footwear is often designed with greater emphasis on toe protection, puncture resistance, abrasion resistance, traction and overall durability.
This model is designed for workers who need a high-cut protective boot rather than a lightweight safety shoe intended primarily for indoor or relatively clean construction environments.
Typical applications include:
Building demolition
Structural dismantling
Concrete demolition
Renovation and building removal
Site clearance
Construction debris removal
Heavy-duty construction
Civil engineering and infrastructure demolition
Outdoor demolition work
The exact footwear configuration should still be selected according to the actual hazards and workplace risk assessment.
The current model combines several protection functions that are relevant to demanding demolition environments.
The boot uses a wide composite safety toe inside the front of the footwear.
The current specification indicates:
Impact resistance: up to 200 J
Compression resistance: up to 15 kN
The composite toe provides a non-metallic protective structure at the front of the boot.
Because composite materials generally have different thermal and electrical characteristics from steel, a composite toe can be considered when buyers want a non-metallic toe configuration.
A TPU protective layer is added around the toe area.
The toe bumper provides an additional layer of material between the outer environment and the main upper.
This is useful in demolition because the toe area can repeatedly contact:
Concrete
Brick
Metal
Wood
Tools
Construction debris
Rough ground surfaces
The TPU toe bumper helps protect the upper from repeated abrasion and physical contact.
The boot uses a Kevlar puncture-resistant midsole.
The current specification indicates penetration resistance of up to 1100 N.
This protection is relevant to demolition sites where workers may encounter nails, screws, broken metal, sharp fragments and other penetrating objects.
Kevlar also provides a non-metallic alternative to a conventional steel puncture plate.
For buyers requiring a specific puncture-resistance classification, the final footwear can be tested according to the required standard.
The outsole uses a PU Goodyear-style construction with a deep, irregular tread pattern.
The raised grooves provide multiple contact edges for outdoor traction.
This type of outsole is intended for demanding surfaces such as:
Concrete
Broken pavement
Gravel
Construction debris
Uneven ground
Dusty work areas
The current product is described as having good slip resistance and abrasion resistance based on its outsole design.
However, a specific certified slip-resistance rating should only be claimed when the finished footwear has been tested to the applicable requirement.
The entire boot uses multiple lines of mechanical stitching to reinforce the footwear structure.
This is particularly relevant to demolition work because the upper may experience repeated bending, pulling and contact with rough materials.
The reinforced construction is designed to improve the overall durability of the boot during demanding work.
The current model uses different materials for different functional areas.
| Component | Current Configuration |
| Boot Height | High-cut |
| Yellow Upper | Nubuck leather |
| Brown Upper | Crazy Horse leather |
| Upper Properties | Abrasion-resistant / work-oriented |
| Toe Cap | Wide composite safety toe |
| Toe Protection | Up to 200 J impact / 15 kN compression |
| Toe Bumper | TPU |
| Midsole | Kevlar puncture-resistant layer |
| Penetration Resistance | Up to 1100 N |
| Outsole | PU Goodyear-style outsole |
| Tread | Deep irregular traction pattern |
| Footbed | Soft PU insole |
| Construction | Reinforced multi-line stitching |
| Closure | Lace-up |
| Colors | Yellow / Brown |
| Sizes | China 39–47 |
The yellow version uses nubuck leather.
Nubuck provides a durable leather construction with a work-oriented appearance and surface texture.
The material is suitable for heavy-duty footwear where abrasion resistance and durability are important considerations.
The brown version uses Crazy Horse leather.
This leather configuration provides a different appearance while maintaining a durable work-boot construction.
Both leather options can be considered according to the buyer's preferred appearance, material availability, cost and application requirements.
The composite safety toe is positioned inside the front of the boot.
Compared with a steel toe, a composite toe provides a non-metallic alternative while still being available in configurations designed around impact and compression protection.
The current specification indicates:
200 J impact resistance
15 kN compression resistance
These figures should be treated as the specified performance of the protective toe component unless corresponding finished-footwear test documentation is available.
The external TPU toe bumper adds another protective layer around one of the most heavily exposed areas of the boot.
It is intended to improve resistance to repeated abrasion and contact with rough construction materials.
This creates a two-part toe structure:
internal composite safety toe + external TPU abrasion protection.
A Kevlar midsole is used to provide underfoot puncture protection.
The stated penetration resistance is up to 1100 N.
Kevlar can also provide a flexible, non-metallic alternative to steel puncture plates.
The boot uses a PU outsole with a Goodyear-style construction.
The outsole has deep grooves and an irregular tread pattern to provide traction across uneven outdoor surfaces.
The outsole can be customized according to requirements for:
Slip resistance
Oil resistance
Abrasion resistance
Heat resistance
Cold-weather performance
Different tread patterns
Different hardness levels
Any certified performance claim should be based on the final outsole and finished footwear testing.
A soft PU footbed is used inside the boot.
The purpose is to improve cushioning and wearing comfort during long working periods.
This is particularly relevant to demolition workers who may spend many hours standing and walking across rough construction surfaces.
The high-cut construction provides greater coverage around the ankle than a low-cut safety shoe.
For demolition work, this can be useful because workers may encounter:
Broken concrete
Sharp debris
Wood fragments
Metal pieces
Dust and rubble
Uneven ground
The higher upper also provides greater structural support around the foot and ankle area during outdoor heavy-duty work.
However, high-cut does not automatically mean the boot provides a certified ankle-protection rating.
The current model should therefore be described as a high-cut demolition safety boot, rather than claiming a separate ankle-protection standard unless specifically tested.
Demolition is not simply a heavier version of ordinary construction.
Workers often operate in areas where existing structures are being broken apart, creating large quantities of sharp, rough and abrasive debris.
The front of the boot can repeatedly contact:
Broken concrete
Brick
Reinforcing materials
Metal
Wood
Tools
Machinery
This makes the combination of leather upper + TPU toe bumper + composite toe particularly relevant.
The outer TPU bumper is intended to take repeated surface contact, while the internal composite toe provides the primary protective structure.
This separation between material durability and protective function is important when evaluating the product.
Not necessarily.
The exact toe material depends on the workplace requirements.
Steel, composite and fiberglass toe caps can all be used in safety footwear, depending on the desired combination of:
Impact protection
Compression protection
Weight
Electrical characteristics
Thermal characteristics
Cost
Certification requirements
The current model uses a composite toe because it provides a non-metallic toe configuration.
For buyers who specifically require steel toe protection, the toe component can be changed.
For buyers requiring fiberglass or another non-metallic toe, alternative configurations can also be developed.
Puncture protection is highly relevant to many demolition environments, but the exact requirement depends on the worksite.
Demolition debris may include:
Nails
Screws
Broken metal
Sharp construction materials
Reinforcing steel fragments
Other penetrating objects
For this reason, a puncture-resistant midsole is a logical protection option for heavy demolition work.
The current model uses a Kevlar midsole with a stated penetration resistance of up to 1100 N.
However, the final puncture-resistance classification should be based on the finished footwear test rather than simply the specification of the midsole material.
ASTM F2413-24 includes puncture resistance among the performance areas covered by its protective footwear specification. ASTM also notes that changes to footwear components or construction can affect compliance, which is why finished-product testing matters when a specific ASTM claim is required.
Oil resistance is application-dependent.
Demolition sites can involve machinery, hydraulic systems, fuels and lubricants, but not every demolition worker is regularly exposed to oil.
Therefore, oil resistance should not be treated as an automatic requirement for every demolition safety boot.
The current product has a PU outsole, but a specific certified oil-resistance rating is not being claimed without corresponding test documentation.
For demolition projects involving machinery maintenance, fuel exposure or oily working surfaces, an oil-resistant outsole can be specified and tested as part of the customized product configuration.
EH protection is not a universal demolition requirement.
Electrical hazards may exist on demolition sites because buildings can contain electrical systems, cables or temporary power equipment.
However, whether the footwear requires electrical protection depends on the worker's actual task and electrical exposure.
The current boot is not being presented as EH-certified footwear.
If the buyer requires electrical-hazard protection, an appropriate electrical protection configuration can be developed and tested separately.
This distinction is important because composite toe does not automatically mean EH protection.
ASTM's footwear framework separately identifies electric shock resistance, static-dissipative properties and puncture resistance as different performance areas.
There is no universal rule that every demolition worker must use an S3 or ASTM-certified boot.
The required standard depends on:
Country
Employer
Project
Procurement specification
Workplace risk assessment
Customer requirements
EN ISO 20345 specifies basic and additional requirements for safety footwear, including areas such as mechanical risks, slip resistance and thermal risks. It also notes that certain special risks are covered by complementary job-related standards.
ASTM F2413 covers protective footwear performance requirements including toe impact and compression, puncture resistance and other optional protection areas.
Therefore, the current product should be described accurately as:
A demolition safety boot using specified protective components and available for market-specific testing and certification.
It should not be described as:
ASTM-certified demolition boots
or
S3-certified demolition boots
unless the finished product has completed the corresponding testing and certification process.
This distinction is particularly important for B2B buyers.
The current boot uses protective components sourced according to the required performance specifications.
For example:
Composite toe: specified for up to 200 J impact and 15 kN compression
Kevlar midsole: specified for up to 1100 N penetration resistance
These components are selected according to their intended performance.
However, a safety footwear certification applies to the finished footwear configuration, not simply to individual components.
The final result can be affected by:
Toe cap manufacturer
Toe cap design
Upper construction
Midsole construction
Outsole
Manufacturing process
Last
Assembly
Other footwear components
ASTM's current test-method documentation specifically notes that changes to the toe cap, manufacturing method, upper, insole, outsole or midsole can affect the validity of testing.
Therefore, Dalu Shoes can supply standard production based on the buyer's required configuration, while specific certification testing can be arranged when required by the customer or destination market.
This gives B2B buyers the option to select the certification level that their project actually requires.
The current demolition boot can be customized according to the actual work environment.
Composite toe
Steel toe
Fiberglass toe
Different toe-cap widths
Different toe-cap structures
Kevlar midsole
Steel puncture plate
Other puncture-resistant materials
PU
TPU
Rubber
Enhanced slip resistance
Oil resistance
Abrasion resistance
Heat resistance
Cold-weather performance
EH where required
Other electrical protection configurations according to the target standard
Water-resistant upper
Waterproof construction
Waterproof membrane or bootie
Gusseted tongue
Depending on the target market:
EN ISO 20345
S-class protection
ASTM F2413
CSA requirements
Specific slip-resistance testing
Oil-resistance testing
Other customer-specific requirements
The final standard claim should correspond to the finished footwear and its applicable test documentation.
The current model is intended for demanding demolition and heavy construction environments.
Suitable for workers involved in dismantling buildings and removing structural materials.
The composite toe, TPU toe protection and puncture-resistant midsole are relevant where broken concrete and sharp debris are present.
Workers involved in structural dismantling may encounter metal, wood, concrete and other construction materials.
The high-cut structure and reinforced construction provide a work-oriented configuration for these conditions.
After demolition, construction sites may contain large quantities of debris and sharp materials.
Puncture-resistant footwear can therefore be useful for workers involved in site clearance and debris handling.
The product can also be used for other demanding construction environments where durability, toe protection and underfoot puncture protection are important.
Renovation projects involving partial demolition can expose workers to many of the same hazards as full demolition.
The footwear can be configured according to the specific work requirements.
This model is designed specifically around demanding demolition and heavy outdoor construction.
It should not automatically be treated as the ideal footwear for every work environment.
A lighter low-cut safety shoe may provide better mobility and ventilation for indoor construction.
Where waterproofing is the primary requirement, a dedicated waterproof construction safety boot with waterproof bootie and gusseted construction may be more appropriate.
The current boot should not automatically be marketed as heat-resistant footwear simply because the upper is described as resistant to heat or abrasion.
If workers are exposed to hot asphalt, molten materials or sustained high temperatures, a dedicated heat-resistant footwear configuration and appropriate testing should be specified.
Where electrical hazards are a primary workplace risk, dedicated electrical-hazard footwear should be considered.
Demolition involving hazardous chemicals or contaminated materials may require chemical-resistant footwear rather than a standard demolition boot.
This is why Dalu Shoes develops different footwear configurations according to the actual workplace hazard instead of treating one boot as suitable for every construction application.
The current model is available in:
Colors: Yellow / Brown
Sizes: China 39–47
Height: High-cut
Yellow Upper: Nubuck leather
Brown Upper: Crazy Horse leather
Toe: Wide composite safety toe
Toe Bumper: TPU
Midsole: Kevlar puncture-resistant layer
