     Why buy safety shoes? They are required in the workplace by OSHA Occupational Safety and Health Administration for industrial environments. Lightweight safety shoes are very comfortable and will protect your feet from bumps, crushing forces, and impact from heavy dropped objects. 

     Shoe features such as "all leather", insulation, water resistant, cushioned inserts, and EVA soles will cost more. However, your demand for safety footwear design include quality materials, extra stitching, and greater protection from hazard will be met.

     Note: new lightweight safety shoes or boots require "breaking in". The shoes will stretch and conform to your feet as you wear them daily. There are even shoe inserts that activate and keep your feet warm for outside or working in cold temperatures.

     Maintenance: shoes are easier to maintain when you keep them clean using warm soap and water. Apply matching color dye, polish, and water repellent spray as needed.  Scothcguard is a brand name product that will protect the fabric portion. To bring out the shine you use a buff pad. This will take several strokes of buffing.

     May we suggest: keep two pairs of lightweight safety shoes or boots for work. Alternate using them so, they can air out overnight. This will allow any damp perspiration to dry out.

     European style shoes usually offers a wider boxed or rounded toe end with added toe protection. These styles are unique and are very comfortable because the toes are not squished together like in narrower toe width shoes. Lower grade shoes will use thinner, cheaper materials that won't last as long. 
   
There are various shoe ratings to include different materials to protect the toes.

Materials description/ANSI ratings:

Steel - protective toe caps made of steel can get cold when working outside, thus make your toes cold.

Composite toe - are typically constructed using hard plastics to protect the toes.

EH have safety toe / Electrical Hazard rating designed for electrical and maintenance personnel performing electrical duties, such as maintenance and lock out/tag out.
