Skechers steel toe cap and composite toe cap safety shoes

Every toe cap certified to EN ISO 20345 is tested to withstand an impact of 200 joules and a compression of 15 kilonewtons, whether it is made of steel, composite or alloy, so all three give the same certified level of toe protection. Steel toe caps are the traditional choice. Composite toe caps are made without metal and are usually lighter, which makes them popular for long shifts and for workplaces that limit metal. Alloy toe caps are a lighter metal alternative to steel. The toe cap material is shown in each product name and on each product page.

Skechers safety ratings explained

• SB: the basic safety rating, with a protective toe cap. Our SB styles also have slip resistant soles, and most have fuel and oil resistant soles.
• S1P: a toe cap plus a closed heel, an anti-static sole, an energy absorbing heel and a puncture resistant midsole, which stops sharp objects such as nails coming up through the sole.
• S3: everything in S1P plus a water resistant upper and a cleated sole.
• S1PL and S3L: the newer markings under EN ISO 20345:2022, showing the puncture resistant midsole is a non-metal insert tested to the L standard.
• ESD: many Skechers safety trainers are ESD (electrostatic dissipative) for workplaces with sensitive electronics.

Why Skechers safety trainers are so comfortable

Skechers calls itself The Comfort Technology Company, and its safety footwear is built with the same comfort technology as everyday Skechers. Many styles have Memory Foam or Air-Cooled Memory Foam insoles, selected styles have Skechers Arch Fit, which Skechers describes as a podiatrist-certified insole and arch support system, and Relaxed Fit styles give a roomier fit across the toes. Hands-free Skechers Slip-ins safety trainers, with a composite toe cap and a moulded Heel Pillow, let you step straight in at the start of a shift. Safety footwear that is comfortable is safety footwear that gets worn properly all day.

Who wears Skechers safety shoes?

Skechers safety trainers are worn in warehouses, logistics and distribution, manufacturing, engineering, trades, maintenance, estates and facilities management, and anywhere a toe cap is required. Their trainer look and lighter feel make them popular with staff who move about all day, and ESD styles suit electronics and technical environments.

Women's Skechers safety trainers

Women's Skechers safety trainers come in UK 2 to UK 9 with composite toe caps, in S1P, S1PL, S3 and S3L ratings, with ESD soles, Memory Foam and Arch Fit options, and hands-free Slip-ins.

Men's Skechers safety shoes run from UK 5.5 to UK 14 and women's from UK 2 to UK 9, with half sizes in most styles. Relaxed Fit styles give extra room across the foot. Each product page shows the sizes in stock, the toe cap, the safety rating and the standard.
