Blundstone RotoFlex safety boot range

Blundstone has launched a design-driven range of composite toecap safety boots, developed using biomechanical technology for stability and flexibility. The RotoFlex range by Blundstone provides a suite of industrial composite boots that are fit for purpose across a range of industries. Created on new tooling and hardware, the RotoFlex range is full of safety and comfort features that provide innovative, evidence-based, detailed protection for the worker that wants strong yet flexible footwear.

The biomechanics system central to the design of each boot can be broken down into four key elements: GripTek HD, Fortalite, AirCell and SoftCell.

GripTek HD is Blundstone’s all-new sole design, designed to provide all-day stability and comfort. The sole, with its unique tread pattern, is lightweight, durable and crafted to make the RotoFlex boot suitable for hard surfaces and graded ground. GripTek HD provides a strong foundation from the ground up, through the unique polyurethane PU tread patterns and super-cushioned midsole, with zoned support, designed to provide comfort for the entire day.

The Fortalite toecap provides compression-proof safety by using a patented Polymer composite material that holds strong under immense pressure. The Fortalite toecap retains its shape without restricting toe movement for all-day comfort.

An AirCell footbed provides air flow and full-body comfort with every step. This is achieved by a socialised zoning design, where the footbed is constructed to activate ventilation, moisture control and cushioning comfort as workers walk and move. The material breathes, pumps air and is soft, providing better air circulation and cushioning for workers.

Blundstone’s fit system, SoftCell, creates more room to move within a stable foothold. This is achieved through understanding of the connection between a moving foot and the inside of a boot, providing a form-fitting and comfortably snug boot with space to move.

The RotoFlex range brings six safety boots into the Australian PPE market and is suitable for workers across a range of industries. The range includes four unisex styles; the 6″ #8560 and #8561, the 5″ #8553 and #8550, and two women’s boot styles: the #8863 and #8860.

The RotoFlex range is available in September 2022. Blundstone boots are available online and in stores via select retailers throughout Australia and are backed by a 30-day comfort and six-month manufacturing guarantee.
