If the shoe

To find safety footwear with good support and effective shock absorption is crucial. Not only in the short term, to avoid tired legs after a long workday on hard and/or uneven work surfaces, but also in the long term, so as not to cause undue harm to your legs and back. The footwear must not have any sharp edges on the inside that could cause chafing, the feet must not get too warm, and the shock absorption must be of the highest calibre. Ideally, we want safety footwear that is just as flexible and supportive as footwear designed for sports or fashion.

Safety combined with optimal comfort

MASCOT has risen to the challenge and is launching four models in a newly developed series of safety footwear that comes as close to the comfort of athletic shoes as possible. The focus has been to unite 100% safety with flexible and comfortable footwear. The range is comprised of safety boots, safety sandals, and two styles of safety shoes, all of which have the same safety components and fit.

Metal-free toe cap, that doesn’t rub

The obligatory toe cap curves upward over the toes at the spot where the toes bend when squatting so that you won’t notice the toe cap when working on your knees. The toe cap is brand new and made of a composite material that is entirely metal-free. By virtue of the textile midsole and plastic eyelets, the shoes, sandals, and boots are completely free of metal. This is an incredible advantage if you have to pass through airport scanners, for example. In addition, metal is, by its very nature, conductive and heavy, giving distinct advantages to footwear that is free of metal. Finally, the textile midsole bends more easily increasing the flexibility of the footwear.

This new range of safety footwear from MASCOT is found both in safety class S3 - a boot and a shoe - and S1P, a shoe and a safety sandal with hook & loop band fastening. All are equipped with a durable sole of PU/PU, that won’t leave scuff marks (non-marking). The new range of footwear can easily be used by a broad spectrum of disciplines, such as craftsmen, light construction, transport and logistics.
