Types of safety footwear
- Safety shoes: low and high ankle shoes with a steel, composite, fibre or FRP toe cap, in leather, suede, nubuck, microfibre or knit, from Allen Cooper, Kavacha, Jama, Zain, Hillson, Acme, Karam, Udyogi and Raga.
- Safety boots: taller boots for more ankle support, such as the Jama Boulder Chelsea slip-on and Tactical lace-up boots, the Kavacha R504, R505 and S19, the Allen Cooper 6053 zipper boot and the Portwest FW23 Steelite Kumo (S3, maker's rating).
- PVC gumboots: one-piece moulded boots for rain, mud, water and chemicals: Hillson Century, Welsafe, BR Welsafe, Chota Hathi, Don and 101, with or without lining, and Udyogi PVC gumboots with or without a steel toe.
- PVC moulded work shoes: Hillson Rockland, U4 and the 7 Star ankle shoe (without steel toe), for wet and dirty work on a tight budget.
- Toe guard: the Kavacha S15, a leather cover with a composite toe cap that straps over ordinary shoes, useful for visitors and short plant tours.
- Uniform shoes: Kavacha SG 904 and SG 906 pure leather police style shoes for security staff and guards.
How to choose safety footwear for your site
- Dry factory floors and warehouses: low ankle safety shoes with a PU sole are the everyday choice.
- Construction, mining and steel plants: high ankle shoes or boots support the ankle on uneven ground and keep out dirt.
- Wet, muddy or washdown areas: PVC gumboots, or washable microfibre safety shoes for food and pharma units.
- Hot floors: a nitrile rubber sole handles heat better than plain PU.
- Electrical work and metal detectors: metal-free shoes with a composite toe and a shock resistant sole (maker's rating).
- Women workers: ladies models from Allen Cooper, Kavacha, Karam and Raga fit narrower feet better than small men's sizes.
