Best Protection in a Super Affordable Boot
Acton Canada recently launched the Progum-I-Met boot with METATECH SYSTEM 360° technology that provides comfort and superior metatarsal protection with its unique patented internal rigid system. The feet are protected from injuries on the top and lateral sides, eliminating the feeling of pain caused by impact.
Originally developed for the STC brand, METATECH SYSTEM 360° has been introduced in the new Progum-I-Met to offer the best protection in a super affordable boot. Despite having one of the lowest prices on the market for a boot with internal M protection, the Progum-I-Met leaves nothing to chance: full-grain leather with sealed seams, breathable antimicrobial lining, 200g insulation, cushioned collar/tongue, and an oil-resistant dual density anti-slip natural rubber outsole.
This new wide fitting style is also available in extra-small and extra-large sizes (3-17). Discover the

Scoops are true utility workhorses in your soft rock mine. They handle multiple tasks, including maintenance, re-supply, clean-up, and rock dusting. To help get the job done, the redesigned battery-powered Joy 02ESV scoops offer excellent operator comfort and robust time between charges.
Equipped with OptiDrive technology developed specifically for these next-generation 240-volt machines, OptiDrive can improve reliability, boost operator productivity, improve motor performance and help reduce maintenance costs.
