The Protector Pro 2.0 has been tested according to the standard DGUV 112-191 (BGR 191) and is therefore approved for orthopaedic insoles.

This allows the Protector Pro 2.0 to be adapted even more optimally to the foot and to support its anatomical structure.

At 23 cm, the Protector Pro 2.0 is cut slightly higher than the Trekker Mountain 2.0. In addition, the two models differ not only height, but also the colour and thickness of the material. The Protector Pro 2.0 is made with a slightly thinner leather of 2.5-2.7 mm, while the Trekker Mountain 2.0 is made with a leather of 2.6-2.8 mm.

In contrast to its predecessor, the Protector Pro 2.0 is equipped with an even more sturdy, comfortable and slip-resistant sole. Spikes can also be attached to these, which provide even better grip when working on slopes. For all those who do not want to compromise on safety.

The sole of the Protector Pro 2.0 provides the necessary grip so that you can carry out your activities without any impediment.

The Protector Pro 2.0 is equipped with a cut protection. This means that you can safely work with chain saws that have a running speed of 20 m per second.

Focus one hundred percent on your job thanks to complete protection of the Protector Pro 2.0.

Your Protector Pro 2.0 can be perfectly combined with the optionally available Grip + Spikes mounting set. The set consists of a two-part assembly spanner and ten small spikes. The metal spikes are screwed into the designated areas in the sole of the shoe and provide additional grip on tree trunks.

We produce in a UK shoe size system. The distance between our half UK sizes is only a few millimetres. This makes it more likely to find exactly the right shoe length.

Half UK sizes differ in length by only a few millimetres.

You can simply wash the dirty shoes with water and a brush. Please do not dry the wet shoes (even if they are wet on the inside) on an open fire, a hot stove or a heater. This will change the shape of the shoe. Simply remove the footbed and stuff the shoes with newspaper or use a shoe tree. Then allow the shoes to air dry slowly. We recommend washing the footbed regularly at 30°. In general, it is best to remove the footbed from the shoes after every wear to ensure optimal re-drying.
