The Tingley 27211 Flite Safety Toe Work Shoe is a six-inch, no-lace boot designed to protect the wearer in demanding work environments while remaining lightweight. It features a composite safety toe that meets ASTM F2413 M/I/C EH and won’t trigger metal detectors, aiding efficient movement through security checks. The footwear is built with Aerex 1.5.5, a proprietary, chemical-resistant, thermally-insulative microcellular polymer, which contributes to reduced weight and improved insulation. The outsole is a cleated, nitrile rubber, slip-resistant design intended to provide grip across dry, wet, and contaminated surfaces, while the inner construction emphasizes energy absorption with a removable, contoured insole. The model is 100% liquidproof and offers chemical resistance to a broad range of substances, including fats, oils, hydrocarbons, and many acids and alkalies, making it suitable for environments like kitchens, food processing, warehouses, and workshops where chemical exposure is a concern.
Practical features support ease of use and safer handling during daily tasks: a unique thumb pocket at the top opening provides a firm, no-slip grip for donning, and a wrap-around heel kick enables hands-free removal. The design eliminates laces to reduce trip hazards and contamination risk, while the replaceable insole enables continued comfort and support even after wear. Insulation and Aerex 1.5.5 materials help maintain a more comfortable foot temperature in varying conditions, contributing to sustained wear throughout long shifts. Note that while the shoe offers Electric Hazard protection features in the sole and heel, performance can deteriorate in wet environments or with excessive wear on the soles and heels.
The Tingley 27211 is packaged as a pair with a case quantity of six and is sized for adult unisex use. It is designed as a work boot suitable for industries including warehousing, construction, transportation, municipal services, janitorial, and various food processing applications, where chemical exposure and slip resistance are considerations. For maintenance, refer to the included spec sheet and follow standard care for Aerex-based footwear and removable insoles to preserve insulation and cushioning.
