How to choose within the CIMBRA family (practical guide)

  • Choose CIMBRA if you need waterproof workwear: Gore-Tex® lining is specified, making it suited to routine wet-weather use.
  • Choose by environment: Best for outdoor work and mixed-surface days; if you mainly work indoors on smooth floors, a lower, lighter work shoe may suit better.
  • Choose by coverage preference: The high cut height suits those who want more coverage and a supportive boot feel.
  • Plan lifecycle: If long-term serviceability matters, factor in the specified AKU-only resoling condition.

 

Fit & sizing guidance

  • Start point: Use your normal EU size as a baseline, then confirm any model-specific guidance on the product page.
  • Sock choice: Decide sizing with the socks you work in (thinner for higher-output days; slightly thicker for colder, wetter months).
  • Return-reduction tip: Aim for secure heel hold and enough toe room for descents/steps, then fine-tune with lacing before committing to outdoor use.

 

Care & longevity

  • Brush off grit/mud; pay attention to seams and the outsole edge.
  • Clean with lukewarm water and a soft brush; avoid aggressive detergents.
  • Dry naturally at room temperature; remove insoles to help moisture escape.
  • Avoid radiators/direct heat.
