Iconic footwear brand Blundstone has launched its RotoFlex range of safety footwear.
This world-leading, biomechanical design is a result of years of customer-driven research and development into the needs of workers in the trades and construction industries.
The RotoFlex range available in New Zealand includes two six-inch, unisex styles — the wheat (#8560) and black (#8561).
Every component used in the RotoFlex range has been researched, tested and trialled in collaboration with the University of Tasmania’s School of Health Science’s biomechanics experts.
Blundstone’s dedicated design team considered several options for each element of RotoFlex to ensure a truly innovative, better performing safety boot.
If they couldn’t find the perfect piece, they created it so the company could deliver best-in-market safety footwear.
Along with zip side convenience for easy on, easy off, and laces for a personalised fit, the range offers a series of safety features, including a Fortalite composite toe cap.
This provides lightweight, compression-resistant protection, suitable for a variety of industries.
The range also has a biomechanically-conforming GripTek sole design. Providing stability with every step, this unique TPU tread pattern and super cushioned midsole offers all-day stability, maximum comfort, and optimum grip.
The innovative design of the GripTek sole also reduces slip-hazard risk, fatigue and ankle injury.
The #8560 and #8561 feature a water-resistant upper and an all-new zoned airflow footbed — AirCell. The AirCell footbed has been uniquely constructed with specialised zoning designed to activate ventilation.
This allows air to be pumped through channels to the heel, arch of the foot and between the toes, offering moisture control and cushioning comfort as the wearer walks and moves.
The overarching comfort system, SoftCell, uses a combination of specialist materials and a unique biomechanical foot-cradling design.
This increases stability, balance and manoeuvrability — providing all-encompassing comfort from day one.
It incorporates Infinergy — an E-TPU material that is a super elastic energy foam from BASF which is soft but resilient — providing enhanced cushioning and reducing the impact of every step taken.
RotoFlex is the benchmark for the safety footwear market — put Blundstone’s innovation to work at participating stores.
