The quality of work shoes is crucial not only because they provide immediate protection, but because they preserve the worker's overall physical and mental health in the short, medium and long term. Each job requires a specific and appropriate safety shoe, based on the classification of safety standards that comply with European regulations on workplace protection.
Safety shoes are also classified according to their protection level and general characteristics, distinguished by their resistance and design, allowing you to choose the most suitable ones for your workplace.
In this buying guide, we'll help users choose the most suitable work shoes for their needs.
SRA: Slip resistance on ceramic floor with water and detergent

LG: Sole with heel detached from footbed for ladder rung grip
The last essential feature we want to highlight in safety shoes is their resistance to electrostatic discharge, indicated by the ESD (ElectroStatic Discharge) marking, which refers to a static electricity discharge between bodies that can be risky in work environments because, even if weak, it can ignite fires when flammable materials are present. These shoes are recommended in environments working with microchips, production of sensitive electrical parts, painting, laboratories, medical fields, and when working with flammable liquids and gases.
The right work shoes for you are those classified as safety standard S3 with water-repellent upper, anti-crush toe protection, oil- and hydrocarbon-resistant anti-slip sole, heel shock absorption, and anti-puncture insole.
Carpenters and woodworkers often need to bend and assume uncomfortable positions during work, requiring flexible and high-performance shoes. For those working indoors, we recommend S1P standard safety shoes.
If you regularly use welding equipment, you'll certainly need safety footwear that protects against sparks, without laces, and resistant to potential molten metal splashes. The right shoes for your needs are high-risk environment footwear in S3 HI HRO WG SRC safety standard.
You definitely need shoes that protect against hazardous dust, are water-resistant and anti-puncture. The protection level we suggest is S3.
You work indoors, in a closed environment where water resistance won't be a priority feature in your choice, but breathability certainly will be. The required safety standard will be S1 or S1P.
You'll need comfortable work shoes with anti-slip soles and uppers resistant to dust and water, but also flexible and high-performing. Our suggestion is the Lift Carpet model by Red Carpet. Shoes with all the safety features of S3 CI SRC ESD standard.
