Bison XT Ankle Lace Up Zip Sided – Stone

Bison XT Ankle Lace Up Zip Sided – Stone

The Bison XT Ankle Lace Up Zip Sided Boot in Stone is built for modern Australian workplaces, offering unmatched comfort, protection, and performance across a range of industries. Designed to meet the demands of workers who spend long hours on their feet in challenging environments, the Bison XT combines ergonomic design, advanced safety features, and durable materials for a reliable and high-performing boot.

One of the standout features of the Bison XT is its wide fit sole sizing, which minimises trip hazards and eliminates rub zones while maximising surface area grip. This ensures enhanced stability and traction on all types of surfaces, whether you’re navigating wet concrete, loose gravel, or slippery workshop floors. The boot’s Bison Grip nitrile rubber outsole compound with multidirectional tread design delivers maximum grip, giving you confidence and safety with every step.

Inside the boot, the Antipenetration IMFLEX insole uses advanced thermoforming technology, providing additional comfort at the heel strike and up to 20% more flex across the forefoot. This insole complies with ISO 20345:2004 International Safety Standards, ensuring both flexibility and protection. Paired with a lightweight EVA midsole, the Bison XT provides superior impact absorption, reducing fatigue during long shifts.

Stability and support are key in the Bison XT. The boot features a unique four-layer heel support system, designed to enhance heel and lower leg stability and prevent ankle roll—a common cause of workplace injuries. The boot is made from high-durability materials that are resistant to abrasion, heat, chemicals, and exposure to organic fats, oils, and acids, making it a long-lasting and reliable choice for tough work conditions.

The ergonomic rocker bottom sole aids forward motion, helping to reduce wearer fatigue and minimising the risk of toe trips or heel-strike slips. The nitrile rubber outsole can withstand extreme temperatures of up to 300°C, making it suitable for environments where heat protection is essential.

Comfort is carefully engineered in the Bison XT. The Self Dispersing Venting System (SDVS) footbed base, combined with a breathable lining, enhances heat dispersion and reduces moisture, keeping feet cool and dry throughout the day. The moulded footbed compound with athletic arch support provides compression-resistant cushioning and improved support, while the Thermo Performance support foam moulds to the wearer’s heel for a personalised, custom-fit comfort.

Safety is paramount, and the Bison XT comes with a steel toe cap, offering 200J impact protection to safeguard against heavy loads and workplace hazards.
