Low Safety Shoes MINNEAPOLIS BOA S3

Low Safety Shoes MINNEAPOLIS BOA S3

Low Safety Shoes MINNEAPOLIS BOA S3 by VM Footwear combine durable materials, a modern sporty design and reliable protection for demanding workplaces. They feature the BOA® Fit System, which allows quick and precise fit adjustments without traditional laces.

The upper is made from abrasion-resistant PUTEK polyamide fabric. This material provides a durable construction while keeping the shoes lightweight. Its water-repellent treatment reduces water absorption and makes the shoes suitable for occasional exposure to moisture.

The interior features a laminated breathable MESH lining. It contributes to breathability and comfort during prolonged wear.

The anatomically shaped HI-POLY insole is made from lightweight polyurethane foam and covered with MESH fabric. It has antistatic properties and provides cushioning and support during walking and prolonged standing.

The dual-density PU/PU outsole is fuel-oil resistant, slip resistant and antistatic. Its direct-injection construction combines two polyurethane densities for cushioning, stability and durability.

The composite safety toe cap protects against impact and compression. A Kevlar midsole provides penetration protection. The model also features ESD properties for controlled electrostatic discharge.

Areas of use

Low Safety Shoes MINNEAPOLIS BOA S3 are suitable for manufacturing, logistics, warehouses, assembly, service and maintenance work. Their S3 classification and water-repellent upper make them suitable for workplaces with occasional exposure to moisture.

ESD properties are useful where electrostatic discharge must be controlled. This includes workplaces handling sensitive electronic components. ESD protection does not provide electrical insulation against hazardous voltage.

The BOA® Fit System allows quick fit adjustments and makes the shoes easy to put on and take off. The composite toe cap and Kevlar midsole provide protection against mechanical hazards. The PU/PU outsole contributes to stability and grip.

Standard Description

The EN ISO 20345:2011 standard specifies requirements for safety footwear. The protective toe cap must withstand an impact energy of 200 J and a compression force of 15 kN. MINNEAPOLIS features a composite safety toe cap.

The S3 classification includes toe protection, antistatic properties, heel energy absorption and penetration protection. It also requires a cleated outsole and resistance to water penetration and absorption in the upper. The Kevlar midsole provides penetration protection.

The SRC marking combines SRA and SRB slip-resistance tests under EN ISO 20345:2011. SRA refers to testing on ceramic tiles with a detergent solution. SRB refers to testing on a steel surface with glycerol.

Compliance with EN ISO 61340-5-1:2016 confirms suitability for use within electrostatic discharge protection systems. ESD properties allow controlled dissipation of electrostatic charge. They do not provide electrical insulation against hazardous voltage.

The water-repellent upper reduces water penetration and absorption. However, this does not mean the entire shoe is waterproof. The model is not intended for prolonged exposure to water or immersion.

The dual-density PU/PU outsole is fuel-oil resistant, slip resistant and antistatic. Its direct-injection construction combines two polyurethane densities for cushioning, stability and durability.
