Shoecare & Product Advice

If you can't add a size to the cart, and experience the message 'out of stock', then, unfortunately, we are sold out.

We recommend giving our CAT Experts a call on 1300 020 375 and press option 1 once prompted.

We've made it super easy to identify the difference between our boots. 

All of our safety toe styles will be marked with an ST (steel toe) or CT (composite toe) in their name on the website.

Alternatively, you can shop our steel toe styles here.

For composite toe styles, please click here.

Occasionally we do get feedback that the shoes are squeaky. This is not actually a manufacturing fault, but a pocket of air which is trapped between the insole and the outsole.  Try taking the insole out, sprinkle talcum powder on the base and leave overnight to settle, then next day shake out the excess talc.  This should get rid of the squeaking!

Generally, all material and design information can be found in or under the product description page.

Still can’t find the information? Get in touch with the CAT Experts below and we’ll be able to help you out.

Want to keep your CAT boots squeaky clean? We've got you covered.

1. Cleaning

We recommend brushing away any surface dirt with our Block & Brush kit on a regular basis. This will help to keep the footwear looking its best! After extended, rugged use, wash with mild soap and warm water. Be sure to rinse all soap off as it is hydrophilic. (Do not soak the shoes or get any leather parts wet for too long).

2. Drying

Open the shoes fully and remove the insoles and laces and let them dry at room temperature. (Never expose them to heat).

3. Conditioning 

Recommended treatment depends on the construction and material of the footwear. Many treatments do slightly alter the colour and appearance of the shoes.

4. Shine

Our instant Shine Sponge is perfect for a quick clean and shines in between polishing. This sponge is suitable for travel and everyday use and will last for 50 to 100 pairs of shoes. This sponge should only be used on smooth leather and not for suede, nubuck or fabrics.

5. Protect

We also recommend using a protector spray for an added layer of protection against water, dirt and stains. Our CAT Footwear & Stain Protector will do the job. It's suitable to use on Leather, Suede, Nubuck & Fabric.
How to use: Hold the bottle 6cms from the surface and spray. Do not saturate. Be sure to spray area thoroughly and evenly, including all seams. For best results, let dry 24 hours. During harsh weather, use more frequently.
