Safety boots for highest requirements
Your feet spend around 50 hours a week in work shoes. Depending on your profession, you may need specific apparel, occupational footwear or waterproof safety wellington boots of some kind. There is, however, one thing everyone wants, no matter the profession – comfort! Strauss offers excellent and comfortable safety boots for men and women that guarantee the correct protection of your feet.
Which safety boot is right for me?
“What do you do for a living?” That is the first question our shoe experts will ask. Finding the right footwear means first and foremost: deciding on the right level of protection.
SB, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7? – What safety class do you need?
No two types of protective footwear are the same: material and protective elements like steel toe caps or other safety toe caps determine the right work shoes for the right job. In any case: safety footwear is a must! (SB / S2 / S3 / S4 / S5 / S6 / S7).
Why a high shaft?
Someone stumbles, slips or falls in the workplace every day – amounting to more than 1,000 work-related accidents. Injuries to the upper and lower ankle are the most frequent results. Mid-ankle work shoes (Mid) and boots protect the ankle joint and tendons against strain injuries, while the foot is fully supported and protected. Waterproof rigger boots with a high shaft are a great choice for those working outdoors, as they provide the safety you need and keep your feet dry, warm and protected.
Safety boots in accordance with EN ISO 20345
Safety shoes and safety boots must comply with the European standard EN ISO 20345. To do this, they are subjected to a number of tests and must meet certain test criteria. Basic requirements for EN ISO 20345 are toe protection and slip resistance. Steel toecaps or toe protection caps made of lightweight aluminium or plastic offer protection against strong pressure and impacts.
Why S3 safety footwear is the number 1 choice on building sites
Why should you choose S3 if the safety class S5 already covers all eventualities? Well, S3 shoes are more attractive than their S5 counterparts, because they are offered in a variety of finishes like leather, textile, microfibre and more – and they are available in various colours. What’s more: they are extra comfortable. A plastic or rubber exterior is required for S5 to guarantee 100% waterproofing. S3s, however, only have to offer membrane-aided waterproofing up to 60 minutes, which means they are more breathable.
If you require a waterproof safety boot, you can choose from plastic or rubber boots as well as models of protection classes S6 and S7. In both protection classes, a permanent protection against water penetration is part of the standard requirement - unlike S3 shoes. Nevertheless, many Strauss S3 safety boots are permanently waterproof due to the implemented membrane, making them comparable in characteristics to S7 safety shoes.
When are Safety Wellington boots a must?
Wellingtons have long since grown past the job they were originally designed for - simple waterproofing. Today, these safety wellingtons are used in a variety of industries. Great examples are agriculture or the food processing sectors. They have also proven as invaluable gear for working in environments with oils, acids and all kinds of chemicals.
When are S5 Safety Wellingtons a must?
Wellingtons of the safety class S5 – like our Kore – offer everything you want in terms of safety and protection. They are completely impervious to water, have an anti-slip tread and integrated penetration protection. A steel toe cap or a lightweight toe cap made of aluminium or composite material will also be included to keep your toes safe. In short: our Safety Wellingtons have all the S3 characteristics you want, plus complete waterproofing.
