Was dubious about buying, a bag, of the beeswift mp1 gloves, as I was actually looking for an alternate brand, I've had gloves before that were all bundled together, where the rubber was too hard and the material like an old rope, the company sent them out really fast delivery, individually wrapped, premium gloves, really happy, top drawer, as these will be stored in the garage, no damp or spider issues, big thanks to George @ gloves & stuff.

Decent gloves at a reasonable price. Delivered within a good delivery window. These gloves have reasonable longevity in medium workloads.

Good company to buy from; just took a bit longer than expected (9 days)from order to being despatched for delivery. The response was quick when I emailed them with a query. Will definitely use again.

C Cherie Rowdenvia Trustpilot

I've always had a good experience with this family run business, always able to ring and get any queries sorted. Quick delivery and products all as described on the website.
The process from order to delivery is smooth and stress free. I would definitely recommend them.

What an amazing company. I bought safety shoes from them and could not fault them with anything. Communication from the seller was spot on. Kept me updated on delivery times and delivery was super quick as well, not to mention that they had the best price out there. These shoes are so comfy :). Thank you very much, I would happily use them again and highly recommend to anyone. I am glad I did not cancel my order because of the previous bad reviews.

A pleasure to do business with George, Paul and the team. Have been using them for years and will continue to do so. Great customer service, speedy shipping and an extensive range of products.

Ordered some safety trainers as they offered the fastest delivery and lowest price. My order was a day late but this was due to a supply chain issue with the manufacturers. George kept me up to date and they still arrived before other company’s expected delivery date. The quality of the trainers are amazing and I will be definitely using this company again for my future supply’s.

Description

Metal-Free Protection That Doesn't Weigh You Down

The Portwest FC18 Apex Composite Mid Safety Boot delivers serious protection without the bulk of traditional steel-toed boots. Built with a 100% metal-free construction, these mid-height boots are perfect for electricians, ESD-sensitive environments, and anyone working around security checkpoints. The composite toe cap and non-metallic penetration-resistant midsole give you full S3S-rated protection that won't set off metal detectors.

Key Features:
  • Composite Safety Toe Cap: Lightweight, non-magnetic protection that's 30% lighter than steel. Includes reinforced scuff protection to handle kneeling and toe drag without wearing through.
  • Heat-Resistant Outsole (HRO): Rated to 300°C contact heat. Walk across hot asphalt, welding sparks, or factory floors without worrying about sole meltdown. The PU/rubber dual-density construction also resists fuel and oil.
  • Side Zipper Access: Water-repellent zipper lets you get these boots on and off in seconds. No more wrestling with laces when you're in a hurry or wearing gloves.
  • ESD Compliant: Meets IEC 61340-5-1:2016 standards for electrostatic discharge protection. Essential for electronics manufacturing, pharmaceutical work, or anywhere static buildup could damage sensitive equipment.
  • Action Leather Upper: Durable leather construction with water penetration resistance keeps feet dry in light rain and damp conditions. Reflective trim improves visibility in low light.
  • Superior Slip Resistance (SR): Advanced tread pattern grips on wet, oily, and uneven surfaces. The dual-density sole also absorbs impact at the heel, reducing fatigue during long shifts on concrete.
  • EN ISO 20345:2022 S3S Certified: Meets the latest safety standards with anti-static properties, energy-absorbing heel, penetration resistance, and water-resistant upper. CE certified by TUV SUD Danmark (Notified Body 2443).

Portwest's CompositeLite collection combines modern materials with practical design. Available in Black/Yellow (BKY) and Black/Blue (BKB) colourways, sizes 35-47. Order now for metal-free protection that doesn't compromise on safety.
