What does the ASTM F2413 label mean?

ASTM F2413 is the standard that defines performance requirements for protective toe footwear, and the label inside the boot lists the standard, its edition year and its impact, compression and other designations, such as Mt, PR and EH. Listings mix editions (-11, -18, -24), so read the year on the pair. Use the Decode the tag section for a line-by-line legend.
