About Dunlop
Dunlop Protective Footwear is a world-leading manufacturer of premium protective boots for agriculture, fishery, food processing, industry, and mining, with a history dating back over 130 years. Known for innovation and safety (ISO, ASTM, CSA standards), Dunlop uses proprietary technologies like Purofort and Acifort to create waterproof, comfortable, and durable boots.
Dunlop manufactures boots designed for specific hazards, including slip-resistant, thermal-insulated, and chemical-resistant footwear. Dunlop footwear offers two main, distinct fits: the Classic Fit - spacious, traditional, easy on/off and the Sneaker (trainer) Fit - snug, modern, engineered for comfort and stability. The Sneaker Fit locks the foot in place to eliminate heel slippage, ideal for all-day wear, while the Classic Fit provides a more traditional, roomy boot experience.

Dunlop Technology
Dunlop Footwear specialises in durable protective boots using proprietary materials: Purofort (lightweight, thermally insulating, air-pocketed material) and Acifort (a robust, chemical-resistant blend of PVC, nitrile rubber, and polymers). Both are designed for industrial, agricultural, and food-processing environments, focusing on comfort, durability, and safety.


Engineered for Superior Performance. Purofort is the unique Dunlop material with millions of air pockets that are evenly distributed in a cross-linked structure. This creates a lightweight and thermally insulating material that is exceptionally strong and flexible, guaranteeing you superior product performance. Once you've tried Purofort boots, you'll never want another boot again.


Engineered for Enduring Protection. Acifort is Dunlop’s unique invention of PVC, nitrile rubber and polymers. Nitrile rubber ensures a longer lifetime and better resistance to oil, fat, blood and chemicals. Polymers add flexibility to your boot, thereby increasing comfort. Dunlop developed special Acifort boots for each industry to give you the comfort and protection you deserve.
