 A pair of steel-toed rubber boots, the sort worn by firefighters. Highly resistant to heat and flame, they provide excellent protection from injury. 

This is a somewhat heavy clothing item made of plastic and nomex, which covers 100% of your feet, and which has no storage capacity. It is bulky, encumbers you a bit, and will keep the areas it covers quite warm.

It offers low protection against bashing attacks and low protection against cutting ones (that includes bullets), while offering good protection from environmental hazards.

It can be made to fit the character's body via tailoring or mechanics, dramatically reduces your chances of getting wet, is more resistant to damage.

This clothing item can be repaired, fitted (if appropriate) and reinforced via the mechanics skill, by using a soldering iron and plastic chunks.
