The DuPont™ Tyvek® 400 Shoe Cover with Tyvek® Sole provides lightweight, limited-use protection for footwear in dusty and contaminated environments. Made from flash-spun high-density polyethylene, Tyvek® 400 fabric delivers an inherent barrier against particles down to 1.0 micron. Unlike microporous films, the protection is built directly into the fabric, maintaining consistent performance even after wear and abrasion. With a 5-inch height and elastic top, this shoe cover supports contamination control and reliable lower-foot coverage in industrial applications.

Key Features

Tyvek® 400 construction: Flash-spun HDPE offering durable and lightweight particle protection
