High Safety Shoes BERLIN S1P

High Safety Shoes BERLIN S1P

High Safety Shoes BERLIN S1P by VM Footwear are designed for professionals who need lightweight, breathable and reliable safety footwear for everyday work. They feature a modern microfibre upper, traditional lace-up fastening and a dual-density PU/PU outsole with enhanced heel energy absorption. Their black colour gives them a functional industrial appearance.

The upper is made from brushed, breathable poromeric microfibre. This material allows air to circulate and contributes to comfort throughout the working day. The lightweight construction helps reduce the additional weight carried by the feet. Meanwhile, the high-cut design provides additional ankle coverage. The material is particularly suitable for indoor workplaces where breathability and prolonged comfort are important.

Inside, a laminated breathable MESH lining helps maintain a comfortable environment around the foot. The anatomically shaped EVA insole offers high moisture absorption and antistatic properties. Its design provides support and contributes to comfort during walking and prolonged standing.

Traditional lace-up fastening allows users to adjust the fit along the entire height of the shoe. The laces can be tightened according to individual foot shape and personal preference. This helps achieve a secure fit during everyday work and prolonged wear.

The dual-density PU/PU outsole is manufactured using direct injection. It features a special system for enhanced heel energy absorption. This helps cushion each step during walking and prolonged standing. The outsole is fuel-oil resistant, antistatic and slip resistant. Its SR marking confirms additional slip resistance under EN ISO 20345:2022.

Mechanical protection comes from a composite safety toe cap and Kevlar midsole. The toe cap protects against impact and compression. The midsole provides penetration protection against sharp objects on the ground. Both protective components are non-metallic, complementing the lightweight construction.

The model also features ESD properties for controlled electrostatic discharge. This makes it suitable for appropriately equipped workplaces where electrostatic risks must be managed.

Areas of use

High Safety Shoes BERLIN S1P are suitable for industrial manufacturing, assembly, maintenance, logistics, warehousing and other workplaces. They are designed for environments where mechanical protection and breathable footwear are important.

Their ESD properties also make them suitable for appropriately equipped workplaces requiring controlled electrostatic discharge. When handling sensitive electronic components, a complete ESD protection system is necessary. This includes suitable flooring and other prescribed protective measures.

The breathable microfibre upper and MESH lining are particularly useful for indoor work. Traditional laces allow individual fit adjustment. The outsole with enhanced heel energy absorption contributes to comfort during prolonged movement.

The composite safety toe cap and Kevlar midsole protect against impact, compression and penetration hazards. Additional outsole slip resistance supports movement on suitable industrial surfaces.

Standard Description

The EN ISO 20345:2022 standard specifies requirements for safety footwear. Protective toe caps must withstand an impact energy of 200 J and a compression force of 15 kN. BERLIN features a composite safety toe cap.

The manufacturer classifies this model as S1 PS. The S1 category includes toe protection, antistatic properties, heel energy absorption and an enclosed heel.

The PS designation indicates penetration protection using a non-metallic insert tested with a 3.0 mm diameter nail. BERLIN uses a Kevlar midsole for this purpose. Testing with a smaller nail addresses penetration hazards from thinner sharp objects.

The FO marking confirms outsole resistance to fuel oil.

The SR marking indicates additional slip resistance under EN ISO 20345:2022. Footwear is tested on ceramic tiles with glycerol.

The ESD designation refers to controlled electrostatic discharge properties. The manufacturer also specifies EN ISO 61340-5-1:2017 for this model. This standard addresses the protection of electronic devices against electrostatic phenomena. Effective ESD protection depends on the complete working environment, suitable flooring and correct use of protective equipment.

Antistatic and ESD properties do not provide electrical insulation against hazardous voltage. This model has no declared waterproof rating. It is therefore not intended for prolonged work in wet conditions.

Collection Description

The BERLIN S1P model belongs to the Safety collection by VM Footwear. It combines lightweight construction, non-metallic protective components, a breathable poromeric microfibre upper and traditional lace-up fastening.

Its key features include ESD properties, PS penetration protection and an outsole with enhanced heel energy absorption. The composite safety toe cap and Kevlar midsole provide mechanical protection.
