Quest for safety

safety shoes are tested and comply with EN 20345: 2011 – footwear equipped with toecaps, which protects our customers from impacts and crushing, with resistance to energies of 200 Joule (equivalent to 20 kg material drops from 1M height) and to pressure loads of 15,000 Newton (equivalent to 1,529kg).

Penetration resistance protection is featured in part of our collection with steel / Kevlar protective midsole is moulded inside the sole to protect against piercing object up to the force of 1,100 Newton.

EN 20345: 2011 safety shoes have all the basic properties of safety basic (SB), and are mainly divided into the following categories: S1, S1P, S2, S3
