Why choose S7S safety shoes?
S7S safety shoes are a practical choice in sectors such as construction, logistics and industry, where protection against wet conditions is more important than extra ventilation. This safety class is well suited to work in rain, mud, wet floors and changing outdoor terrain. This is also reflected in the benefits for the wearer:
Better protected against moisture: suitable for prolonged wet working conditions.
More secure on slippery surfaces: ideal where grip remains important.
Suitable for tougher conditions: useful for outdoor work and wet terrain.
A logical choice for wet work: ideal when dry feet are more important than extra breathability.
S7S vs S3: what is the difference?
The difference between S7S and S3 lies in the technical classification within the latest safety standard. S7S models are more often made with modern, metal-free materials and a waterproof construction. As a result, they are better suited to prolonged wet working conditions than traditional S3 safety shoes. When dry feet are more important than extra breathability, S3S safety shoesare the better choice.
What are the main advantages of S7S safety shoes?
S7S safety shoes fall within the category of metal-free safety shoes. This means they are made without metal components in the protective parts, contributing to a lighter construction. Combined with a waterproof upper, this makes the category suitable for anyone looking for protection in wet working conditions.
S7S safety shoes for women and men
FootFellas deliberately does not opt for unisex models. The difference between women’s and men’s S7S safety shoes lies in the last, fit and construction of the shoe. Women’s models are adapted to the shape of the female foot, while men’s models are developed based on a fit that better suits the male foot. As a result, both versions fit better, providing more comfort and support during work.
