Top 5 safety shoes construction

Prevent injuries and work in comfort

If there's one sector that truly puts safety shoes to the test, it's the construction sector. Employees carry out their work on rough ground in all weathers, using heavy materials and powerful tools. As they come into contact with sand, bricks, steel, cement and concrete, footwear for building workers needs to stand up to a very hard life indeed. That is why EMMA Safety Footwear has developed a range of safety shoes specially designed to withstand challenging work environments such as building sites. The shoes themselves are lightweight, but are still robust and offer excellent grip. In that sense, they provide the highest degree of safety, while still being comfortable to wear. Water-repellent, but still flexible and breathable.

After all, professionals can only do the work that they do in the best possible conditions!

Our focus on comfort

The main purpose of wearing safety footwear is to ensure our safety, but comfort is still equally important! After all, if you spend your whole working day standing or walking while doing your work, the last thing you need is trouble with your feet. That is why safety footwear from EMMA Safety Footwear has been developed especially with comfort in mind. The insoles made from PU foam provide increased cushioning and the outer soles that incorporate the very latest technology distribute your weight across the front and back of your foot. Your feet will also stay fresh and hygienic thanks to the anti-bacterial treatment in the insole and the padding. Not only is that good for your well-being, but it also makes your work a lot more enjoyable!

To prevent injury while not compromising on comfort, the professionals at EMMA Safety Footwear drew up a list of the top 5 safety shoes for the construction sector.

OUR TOP 5 FOR THE CONSTRUCTION SECTOR

CrossForce X high  Extreme work requires robust safety shoes. However, not all robust safety shoes are comfortable, but the CrossForce X high is!  This particular type of safety footwear is metal-free and therefore ultra lightweight, so the shoes themselves are comfortable to wear while still giving you enough room to move. Their trendy good looks, energy-return insoles and the Vibram outsole that offers ultimate grip are what make these shoes the real deal.

Lukas These all-round safety shoes can withstand every challenge that a construction site can throw at them! Lukas footwear doesn't only include steel toe caps, but an extra scuff cap. The easy-twist sole makes sure that your shoe stays firmly in contact with the ground, while the special grooves in the sole ensure that most of the dirt stays on the construction site and not on your shoes. This type of shoe is available in various width measurements and is ‘Climate Activator’ certified (and therefore sustainable).

Everon 2.0 Everon 2.0 is metal-free and therefore lightweight. That's a really great feeling when you spend long working days on your feet. What is more, its ergonomic design, its specially designed heels, the nubuck leather, the soft insole with PU foam and its perfect cushioning all play their part in making these shoes more comfortable to wear. With Everon, you can stay standing firmly on your feet, thanks to the Framework PU outsole.

Merula  Merula was made for people who are always outside. Do you work all day in all weathers? If so, a pair of water-repellent boots with a warm sheepskin lining should definitely have a place in your shoe cupboard! Merula footwear is tough, robust, breathable and stylish and is therefore especially popular amongst young people and an added benefit is that it is ‘Climate Activator’ certified too!

Clyde  Clyde is a metal-free safety shoe with the sporty appearance of a pair of trainers. Its special heel construction and reinforced, shock-absorbing soles protect your ankles, shins and joints from strain and injury. What is more, Clyde also includes a wear-resistant coating on the toe cap, which makes these shoes extremely suitable to wear in the rough world of construction!
