Description:
The Redback Lynx Side-Zip Work Boot is a lightweight black lace-up safety boot with an ASTM F2413-18 certified composite toe and a side zipper for fast entry and exit. It is built for mechanics, automotive technicians, warehouse staff, tradespeople and industrial workers who need toe protection without the weight of steel. A protective scuff cap, a slip-resistant military-inspired outsole and the Redback Rebound footbed round out the design.
Key Features
- Composite safety toe: certified to ASTM F2413-18, giving impact protection that is lighter than steel and does not conduct heat or cold the way metal does.
- Lace-up front with side zip: set the laces once for a secure fit, then use the zipper to get the boot on and off quickly during the day.
- External scuff cap: reinforces the toe, the area that wears fastest, to help extend the life of the boot.
- Slip-resistant outsole: a military-inspired tread puts roughly 30% more of the sole in contact with the ground for traction and stability on changing surfaces.
- Flexible wedge sole: bends with the natural movement of the foot to help reduce fatigue over long shifts.
- Nubuck leather and tactical textile upper: sanded full-grain nubuck with a water-repellent treatment, combined with textile panels for breathability and lighter weight.
- Redback Rebound footbed: podiatrist-designed insole that adds responsive cushioning and support for long hours standing and walking.

Sizing
Redback is an Australian brand that sizes its footwear in UK sizes. Our size menu lists the US men's size first, followed by the approximate US women's size and the original UK size. To convert, US men's equals UK plus 1 (UK 8 is a US men's 9), and US women's is roughly the US men's size plus 1.5. If you are between sizes, contact us before ordering and we will help you choose.
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Lynx has a composite safety toe certified to ASTM F2413-18, plus an external scuff cap over the toe.
Does the Redback Lynx have a zipper?
Yes. It laces up the front and has a side zipper, so you can adjust the laces once and zip in and out after that.

They are not described as waterproof. The nubuck leather has a water-repellent treatment for protection in changing conditions.
How do Redback sizes convert to US sizes?
Redback uses UK sizing. Add 1 to the UK size for the US men's size, and about 2.5 for the US women's size. Our size menu already shows the US conversion.
