The Stein Defender Max, Class 2 chainsaw protective boot, continues the tradition of value-for-money, quality and features found in the original Defender Classic. The Defender Max features the same naturally water repellant, breathable Perwanger leather but has a 360-degree rubber rand and unique D3O side impact protection. The D3O Impact Protection helps protect the lower fibula from knocks and impacts. In addition, a climate-regulating membrane protects against external moisture. It maintains breathability, further increasing comfort—the anatomical padding inside the boot along with the padded tongue complete the foot comfort package. VIBRAM® bi-directional high-profile lug design improves traction and braking combined with the self-cleaning system. The VIBRAM® asymmetrical heel has an undercut design for more secure braking and allows for a natural touchdown when walking. Manufactured in ITALY.
