STIHL has launched an updated set of breathable and comfortable safety boots, designed to support and protect wearers when undertaking gardening and landscaping jobs.
Enhancing its current footwear range, STIHL has manufactured the updated steel toe capped S3 safety boots to comply with the safety standard of footwear EN ISO 20345:2011, with additional features such as anti-static protection, puncture protection, oil, fuel and water resistance, energy absorption in the heel and mid heel penetration resistance.
For optimal comfort and protection, these light-weight safety boots boast additional ankle support, a replaceable insole and steel cap protection that can resist a 200-joule impact, assuring the user’s safety while wearing the boots and operating gardening and landscaping equipment.
The S3 boots are made with durability in mind, featuring breathable fabric and quick drying textile lining with a padded collar, making them the ultimate gardening footwear for any weather. With an excellent grip on uneven soils and a rough profile sole, any outdoor job can be completed with ease while maintaining a stable and secure grip.
Available in UK sizes 5.5 – 13, the S3 safety boots have an updated design with reflective material and strips on both sides, enabling greater visibility when working. These boots are not suitable for chainsaw use.

About STIHL
It all started with a chainsaw, and to this day, it’s still the product for which the STIHL brand is best known worldwide.
Ever since Andreas Stihl invented the first portable chainsaw, the STIHL name has stood for revolutionary technology, driven by significant investments in research and development and a single-minded passion for making people’s lives easier when working in nature. It’s because of this that STIHL has been the world’s best-selling petrol chainsaw brand since 1971.
But the STIHL name is now synonymous with many other industries too, as well as with home gardeners looking for premium quality tools. The extensive STIHL range includes hedge and grass trimmers, multi-tools, pressure washers, construction tools, lawn mowers, lawn tractors, robotic mowers and of course, chainsaws.
A family-owned business based in Germany; STIHL employs almost 18,200 people worldwide and sells products in more than 160 countries globally.
STIHL GB is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the global STIHL Group. In Great Britain, STIHL products are available from more than 700 specialist Approved Dealers who offer expert advice and after sales support. Selected tools are also available from quality garden centres and from STIHL’s own online store https://shop.stihl.co.uk/
Whatever STIHL tool you choose and however it’s powered – battery, petrol or electric – each features countless innovations, exceptional performance and lasting quality.
