Footwear Accessories

Footwear accessories support regular cleaning, maintenance and the replacement of compatible components. At The Coalface Workwear and Safety, the collection includes work socks, footbeds, insoles, replacement laces, zip attachments and boot care products.

Brands include Steel Blue, Blundstone, Mongrel, Redback, Hard Yakka, KingGee, FXD, Bisley, GRVL and NNT. Sof Sole, DryGuy, Yaktrax and other specialist brands add cleaning, drying and practical footwear accessories.

The range complements both safety footwear and non-safety boots and shoes, with product suitability depending on the footwear’s materials and construction.

Work Socks for Different Footwear and Conditions

The work socks collection includes ankle, quarter, crew and longer styles, with different materials, cushioning and pack sizes available. Selected designs use cotton, bamboo-rich blends, wool blends or performance fibres.

Sock length and thickness should suit the footwear and intended activity. A thicker sock can change the fit of a boot, while longer styles provide coverage above the collar of higher-cut footwear.

Explore women’s work socks for additional sizing and styles, alongside the men’s safety boots and women’s safety boots collections.

Replacement Footbeds and Insoles

The footbeds and insoles collection includes brand-specific replacements and selected cushioning options. Styles from Steel Blue, Blundstone, Mongrel, Redback, Hard Yakka, Bata and Wide Load provide different constructions and fit options.

Replacement footbeds should be checked for compatibility with the shoe or boot. In certified safety footwear, changes should follow the manufacturer’s guidance so the intended fit and protective performance are maintained.

Boot Laces and Compatible Zip Attachments

Replacement laces and zip attachments are available in different lengths, colours and designs. The appropriate lace depends on the boot height, eyelet arrangement and manufacturer’s recommendations.

Selected Steel Blue zip attachments are designed for particular footwear models and size ranges. They should not be assumed to fit every lace-up boot.

For complete footwear with built-in zip access, explore the men’s zip side safety boots and women’s zip side safety boots collections.

Cleaning, Leather Care and Footwear Drying

The boot care range includes leather wax, dubbin, renovating cream, polish, cleaners and selected protective sprays. Products should be chosen according to the upper material, as smooth leather, suede, nubuck and textile footwear require different care.

Waterproofing sprays do not automatically make an entire shoe waterproof. Existing waterproof membranes and other components should be maintained according to the footwear manufacturer’s instructions.

Selected accessories include a boot scrubber, boot jack, deodorising products and a boot-and-glove dryer. These provide practical options for footwear used in trades, agriculture, landscaping, workshops and everyday outdoor activities.

Prices and Regular Maintenance

Current prices range from approximately $5 for selected replacement laces to $195 for a powered drying accessory. Many socks, care products and replacement components fall below $50, with prices varying by brand, pack size and purpose.
