Taro - RF500

Product description

The RF500 Taro The RF500 Taro redefines everyday workwear by fusing a timeless, low-profile trainer look with the proven protection that makes Rock Fall trusted on site. A classic cup-sole construction, leather upper and streamlined toe shape give it a modern, street-ready edge while retaining the strength to handle the toughest tasks. Behind the clean design lies serious defence: a steel toe cap guards against impact and dropped equipment, while a flexible penetration resistant protective insert protects against unexpected underfoot hazards. For long shifts on unforgiving floors, a shock-absorbing comfort footbed helps reduce fatigue and maintain support hour after hour. The slip-resistant outsole gives reliable grip and stability across varied surfaces. This is infused with Solum’s Verdura™, a bio-based additive that partially replaces fossil-based chemistry. Built to work hard and look good doing it, the RF500 combines Rock Fall’s hallmark durability with everyday style you can wear well beyond the job.
