Totectors Waterproof Safety Boots & Shoes

The New Totectors Waterproof footwear will be featuring the OutDry technology. OutDry uses three-dimensional laminating process to adhere a waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane to the inside of the outer most layer of shoes/boots. Unlike other waterproof liners or booties that leave a gap for moisture to seep in, OutDry’s Technology permanently bonds to the shoe creating flawless fit with no folds, seams or seam-sealing tape. The system creates a more waterproof finished product, reduces “wet weight” and improves comfort and dexterity. It also prevents the ingress of contaminants, such as dirt, dust, sand fuel and oils from penetrating to the inner of footwear.

OutDry also keeps a healthy environment as a top priority using recyclable, non-toxic materials and is PTFE-free. For more information on OutDry, please visit www.outdry.com

Some of the benefits of Totectors Waterproof footwear with OutDry membrane are:

Extreme waterproofness 

OutDry system moves the waterproof barrier from the internal lining to the external upper. As a result, the water stays on the outer surface of the shoe and your feet remain dry. You will never experience again the unpleasant feeling of humidity, typical of footwear utilizing current waterproofing lining ("bootie" system). 

Superior breathability

OutDry membrane is specifically engineered for foot protection. It has very high water vapor permeability, certified by the primary international testing facilities. The complete absence of any seam-sealing tape, enables the system to exploit 100% permeability of the waterproof barrier surface, thus increasing overall breathability.

Unmatched comfort

OutDry system creates a larger volume of dry air between the foot and the waterproof barrier; this dramatically reduces the risk of condensation from excessive perspiration and helps to mantain a stable temperature of the foot skin (by eliminating the loss of heat caused by direct conduction: foot-lining-water).

Perfect fit

OutDry system uniformly seals the upper's inner surface with a thin waterproof barrier (0.05 millimeter). There are no folds, no seams and no seam-sealing tapes. This eliminates potential points of friction with the foot, and consequently decreases the risk of blisters. Blistering is the #1 cause of foot discomfort when hiking under extreme conditions.

Lighter all day

Thanks to OutDry system, water cannot penetrate inside the upper and stagnate between the upper and the lining; you no longer need to carry this excess weight around your feet. Exertion is reduced and performance increased. Also, OutDry system insures that the upper absorbs less water and dries much faster.

High quality and durability

The materials and processes utilized by OutDry® system are engineered for durability in extreme conditions, and mantain their characteristics for the entire lifetime of the footwear.
