Why choose Solid Gear Vapor 3 GTX Mid
Solid Gear Vapor 3 GTX Mid delivers a combination of waterproofing, grip and comfort, making it suitable for various work environments. The GORE-TEX® lining keeps your feet dry in rain, snow or mud. The Vibram® outsole and ETPU midsole ensure reliable traction and protection regardless of the challenge. The BOA® Fit System guarantees a precise and comfortable fit, reducing foot fatigue during long workdays.
Reliable protection and grip in changing conditions
The boot resists oil, water, mud and slippery surfaces. The fiberglass toe cap and soft puncture-resistant plate, combined with the slip-resistant outsole, provide the required safety level even on difficult terrain. This makes the model a strong choice for construction sites, warehouses and outdoor work environments where surfaces can be slippery or uneven.
All-day comfort and support
The ETPU midsole and OrthoLite® insole absorb shocks and distribute weight evenly, reducing foot strain and improving overall comfort. The wide fit and precise BOA® adjustment keep your feet comfortable even during extended work shifts.
How it compares to competitors
Versatility combined with strong protection
Many safety boots are suited either for indoor or outdoor use, but few combine waterproofing, strong grip and comfort this effectively. Solid Gear Vapor 3 GTX Mid performs well in warehouses, on construction sites and outdoors in rain or snow. This makes it a cost-effective choice — one pair can handle multiple working environments.
Lightweight yet durable construction
Though the boot offers high protection and a supportive structure, its ETPU midsole and microfiber upper help keep weight and stiffness under control. This reduces fatigue and makes movement easier.
