Collection: Safety Boots

S3 safety boots and other classes: S1P, S3, S3L or S3S?

• S1P: toe cap and puncture-resistant midsole, not water-resistant – for dry indoor work.
• S3: adds a water-resistant upper and cleated sole – the standard choice for construction sites (EN ISO 20345).
• S3L / S3S: newer markings of EN ISO 20345:2022 for S3 boots with a non-metal puncture-resistant midsole; S is tested with a thinner nail (3 mm) than L (4.5 mm).
• CI: cold insulation – choose it for winter sites.

ESD safety shoes

ESD safety shoes lead static charge safely to the floor, with shoe resistance within the ESD range of EN 61340-5-1. Choose them for electronics work, technical rooms and sites where the client requires ESD footwear. Look for the ESD marking next to the safety class, for example S3 ESD. ESD shoes do not protect against electric shock. See ESD safety shoes or read ESD safety shoes explained.
