The End of Steel Toe Caps

Composite Toe Safety Footwear has given rise to a number of component innovations which have led the way in producing more comfortable, durable and aesthetically appealing designs and styles. The producers which have embraced the component technologies have produced some remarkable and even ground breaking safety footwear designs. One component that has led the way alongside the composite toe cap is the Kevlar Midsole. Protective midsole are put into safety boots and shoes to prevent sharp objects such as broken shards of glass, nails, large splints of timber, metal objects and many more hazards around the work place from injuring the underside of the foot.

Traditionally the midsole is manufactured from a thin steel plate which is inserted into the foot bed of the footwear. Although the steel midsole does provide functional protection from these types of every day hazards they very nature of the steel plate means that it is not very flexible and therefore can restrict movement and the boots can feel stiff under foot which can also increase foot fatigue. Kevlar midsoles on the other have all the safety benefits which its steel counter parts deliver but have the advantages of being far lighter and its very make up means that the Kevlar is extremely flexible and this means safety footwear have combined the superb wearer benefits of these components and the result is a stunning collection of safety work boots with composite toe caps and midsoles.
