Vulcanised rubber is a process that was invented back in 1844 and the basics of the method is that natural rubber is mixed with sulphur and then heated. The heating will change the chemical structure of the material creating crosslinks between polymers to make them stronger and more durable! The name is inspired by Vulcan who is the Roman god of fire.
The thick canvas fabric is made of 100% cotton. They’re also finished off with an extra thick rubber toe cap that serves as a toe guard for added safety and durability.
