First, work footwear protects against adverse factors. So safety shoes are supplied with special protective elements and properties. The presence or absence of protective elements depends on the area of use and the overall working conditions.

Second, work shoes must provide maximum comfort while working, which significantly affects efficiency and productivity.

Also, specialized footwear, according to European quality standards, has an op class of protection, which is determined by the presence of protective elements and properties.

Let's consider the main differences between the protection classes:

The EN-345 standard identifies footwear as work footwear. A distinctive feature is a shock-resistant toe cap that can withstand an impact force of up to 200 J.

According to the EN-346 standard, footwear is characterized as protective. This type of shoe has a shock-resistant toe cap that can withstand impact forces up to 100 J.

According to the EN-347 standard, these are professional footwear that does not provide for a shock-resistant toe cap.

Also, in addition to a protective toe cap, safety shoes can be supplied with other protective elements:
Anti-puncture insole - in other words, it is a barrier that protects the feet from impacts and punctures up to 1200 N.

acts as a barrier, located between the inner layer of the shoe and the lining. Provides protection for legs from cuts and punctures up to 1200 N.

Reflective inserts - increase the visibility of the person during the work process.

Rubberized toe cap - has several functions. Firstly, the rubberized toe cap prevents quick abrasion of the shoe, thereby extending the product's lifespan. Secondly, the sock has anti-slip properties.
