Not every day calls for a heavy steel cap. The Redback Whistler (RWIB) is a lightweight, soft toe Chelsea boot that works on a site visit, in the office, at the pub or on a long weekend away. It's designed and made in Sydney by Redback. The Iron Bark colourway mixes earthy green, brown and grey tones, so it looks a little different from the usual black and brown.
The three-piece upper is cut from premium full grain leather chosen for durability and breathability. Elastic sides make it an easy pull-on boot. Inside, a full genuine leather lining and a removable, anatomically shaped closed-cell PU footbed add comfort. Underneath, a lightweight PU midsole sits on a slip and oil resistant TPU outsole with a high-traction pattern for stable footing on footpaths, polished floors and workshop surfaces.
