PSSJW-110
Swift Water Rescue Boots
＄ 43.90
The PSSJW-110 Swift Water Rescue Boots are purpose-engineered water rescue boots for professional rescue teams. Compared with the PSSWH-109, the 110 adds a precision dial closure (BOA®-style) to achieve single-hand don/doff in 3–5 seconds with ± 1 mm micro-adjustment and a lock strength of ≥ 35 kgf—delivering faster readiness and a consistently secure fit in wet, high-pressure missions. The boot is designed and tested to meet the core performance requirements of NFPA 1952 (surface water operations footwear) and aligns with GA 628-2013 and selected ISO 20345 S5 elements (waterproofing, slip, puncture). Not third-party certified.
Built for swift-water, flood, and boat-deck operations, the PSSJW-110 takes the protective platform of the PSSWH-109—reinforced synthetic-rubber upper, ≥ 5 mm dive-grade neoprene liner, and ≥ 7 mm neoprene insole—and integrates a dial closure system that maintains tension through immersion, impact, and repeated flex. Operators can tighten or release the boot single-handedly in 3–5 seconds, fine-tuning fit by ± 1 mm even with wet gloves; the locking mechanism resists ≥ 35 kgf pull to minimize loosening incidents during wading, ladder work, and vessel transfers. Underfoot, the platform is validated for 100,000 flex cycles with crack length ≤ 9 mm, while dual-zone puncture layers provide ≥ 1.9 kN resistance in the outsole and ≥ 145 N in the shaft to defend against submerged nails, glass, and metal fragments. Traction is tuned for slick, irregular surfaces, achieving a start-to-slip angle ≥ 25° on a wet inclined-plane method, supporting confident footing on decks, ramps, and rocky beds. Total mass is controlled at ≤ 1.3 kg per pair (≈ 2.87 lb) to reduce fatigue over prolonged deployments. (The dial mechanism follows the same operating principle as BOA®-style closures commonly seen on certified NFPA footwear; BOA® is a registered trademark of Boa Technology Inc., referenced here descriptively.)
Use & Care
Rinse after salt/contaminant exposure; air-dry away from heat sources.
After sandy/muddy use, flush the dial closure path and lace guides to remove grit; do not force the dial under load.
Inspect tread, puncture layers, and closure function regularly; service/replace if damaged.
Rapid Precision Fit: Dial closure enables 3–5 s single-hand don/doff and ± 1 mm tension control for consistent seal and comfort.
Retention Under Load: Lock strength ≥ 35 kgf helps maintain fit through immersion, climbing, and transfers.
Cold-Water Protection: Dive-grade neoprene liner + insole slow heat loss during extended exposure.
Marine-Tuned Traction: ≥ 25° ramp angle on wet surfaces for decks, ramps, and rocky beds.
Long-Cycle Durability: Platform validated to 100,000 flex cycles; dual-zone puncture protection (≥ 1.9 kN / ≥ 145 N).
