In the fast-changing world of safety clothing , footwear is where theory meets concrete floors, wet steel decks, and long shifts. The Anti-collision shoes here are S3 CE-certified steel-toe boots built for both men and women—cow leather uppers, indestructible vibe, and a surprisingly comfortable midsole. I’ve seen them on construction sites at 6 a.m., and, to be honest, that’s where marketing claims get humbled or proven.
Three trends are driving the upgrade cycle: stricter auditing under EU PPE rules, higher slip incidents in logistics (wet loading bays, anyone?), and employers pushing for unisex fits that actually fit. It seems that buyers want S3 protection without the brick-like feel. This model hits that balance better than most in its bracket.
| Parameter | Spec | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | EN ISO 20345 S3, CE | PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425 |
| Toe Protection | Steel, 200 J | Impact/Compression tested |
| Midsole | Puncture resistant ≥1100 N | Lab vs. site results may vary |
| Outsole | SRC slip resistance | Oil/wet tiles; ≈better grip in logistics |
| Upper | Cow leather | Water penetration + absorption control |
| Service life | ≈12–24 months | Depends on abrasion and care |
Materials are cut (CNC), stitched, and bonded; toe caps and midsoles are integrated before outsole molding. Each batch goes through impact/compression rigs, puncture tests, slip tests on ceramic/steel with detergent/glycerine, and aging checks. Actually, the heel energy absorption is one of the sleeper features—less fatigue by hour nine.
Customer notes: “Grip on oily tiles is better than our old pair,” one facilities manager told me. Another buyer liked the unisex sizing—less guesswork for HR. That’s the thing with safety clothing : comfort often decides whether people actually wear it correctly.

Branding, lace/eyelet choices, reflective piping, and outsole compounds are available, which is helpful for site-specific risks. Factory origin: 26 YongPing Road, Northern Industrial Base, Hengshui City, Hebei, China. If your safety clothing policy requires traceability, keep those details on file for audits.
