Top 5 safety shoes transport and logistics

Crucial protection in a hazardous environment

Personal protective equipment is essential for work in transport and logistics. Indeed, employees work in demanding environments and are exposed to various risks; from heavy machinery and goods to dangerous situations in depots or loading bays. A good pair of safety shoes should therefore be included in the wardrobe of every lorry driver, air freight carrier, warehouse worker, dock worker, freight train operator, packer or forklift driver.

Protection and safety

The safety shoes from EMMA Safety Footwear provide crucial protection against physical dangers. There is even a shoe collection created especially for the transport and logistics sector! The unique design of these shoes provides protection from falling objects, heavy tools and sharp objects, such as nails, glass or splinters. The special anti-slip sole platform provides grip and stability, thus preventing a fall and injury. So, even if you get out of your lorry in winter weather or are required to load in a dock where oil has just leaked, you’ll remain standing. Plus, this series also includes several metal-free shoes with ESD certification. These shoes help in discharging static electricity. This prevents your body becoming statically charged as well as avoiding damage to apparatus or electronic equipment. Clearly, no luxury in a depot packed with electronic components, a factory with sensitive apparatus or a warehouse filled with technology.

High walking and wearing comfort

What is really unique about EMMA safety shoes is that they are really comfortable to wear and move around in. Thanks to the use of light materials, breathable fabrics, cushioning outsole plus unique inlay soles, these shoes can be worn all day long. Strain on the ankles, feet, knees and back is minimal. So, those long hours of standing up or many kilometres of walking in a large distribution centre are no longer a problem with the safety shoes from EMMA Safety Footwear!

Our top 5 for transport & logistics

CrossForce Fly low Sporty, dynamic, durable and metal-free. That is the CrossForce Fly low in a nutshell. This safety shoe ensures great wearing comfort thanks to the use of feather-light materials, an innovative inlay sole and specially designed Framework PU outsole. The CrossForce Fly low is made for use both indoors and outdoors, which means it is ideally suited to transport and logistics.

CrossForce X low The CrossForce X low is reputed for its ultimate grip. That is no surprise, since the Vibram Ecostep Pro outsole is specially designed to tackle uneven and slippery surfaces. This safety shoe is metal free, which makes it lovely and light and really comfortable. Thanks to the insoles with energy return, you can easily wear CrossForce X low for the entire day.

Clay Clay has the appearance of a sneaker and the properties of a safety shoe. The perfect combination for youthful or sporty employees in the transport or logistics sector. Thanks to the unique heel construction and shock-absorbing soles, Clay prevents strain and injury. This safety shoe has a wear-resistant coating on the toe cap, extending the service life significantly.

Jess Jess follows the natural, anatomical form of the female foot and is therefore the ultimate safety shoe for women. The robust sole for a ‘sticky’ grip on all surfaces and the sporty appearance give the shoe the look of a sneaker. With the innovative Hydro-Tec® antibacterial lining your feet stay dry all day, because moisture is immediately absorbed and removed.

Paris Paris is designed for both performance and looks. This sporty safety shoe is lightweight due to the use of materials like a Nano Carbon Composite protective toe cap. In combination with the airbag in the outsole, it makes the shoe comfortable to wear, without compromising on safety. Indeed, the PU-coated textile upper and the GripForce® Easy Twist sole provide maximum protection.

Inlay soles

Have you made your choice from these top 5 and found the perfect safety shoe for your ‘job to be done’? Now, find out more about the inlay soles from EMMA Safety Footwear. In fact, EMMA offers a variety of inlay soles to suit the people who wear its shoes. Designed for extra support and cushioning. That is no luxury when you stand on a concrete floor for hours or work regularly on an uneven surface. An inlay sole optimises the fit of your safety shoe, thus increasing comfort when you move around.

Comfort Soft & Comfort Soft Framework inlay soles
The ‘Comfort Soft’ inlay soles are washable, resilient and made of comfortable PU foam. The sole also contains a Hydro-Tec® top layer with breathable, moisture regulating and anti-bacterial properties, keeping your feet dry all day and preventing nasty odours. The ‘Comfort Soft’ inlay sole is predominantly used in shoes with a GripForce sole. Clay, Jess and Paris are therefore also fitted with these inlay soles. The CrossForce Fly low & CrossForce X are normally fitted with the ‘Comfort Soft Framework’ inlay sole. This innovative and soft inlay sole is specially designed to use on our Framework sole platform and, thanks to the thicker top layer, offers greater comfort than the regular ‘Comfort Soft’ inlay soles.

Since all of our inlay soles are interchangeable, you can easily choose an inlay sole to match your shoe and your requirements. EMMA Safety Footwear even has solutions for (semi-)orthopaedic adjustments!
