Black leather with orange details gives them a distinctive appearance. Their high-cut design also provides additional ankle coverage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The upper is made from <strong>full-grain cowhide leather, 2.0\u20132.2 mm thick<\/strong>. This durable material is suitable for everyday use in challenging conditions. Its water-repellent treatment reduces water penetration and absorption, making the shoes suitable for occasional exposure to moisture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">A <strong>laminated breathable MESH lining<\/strong> helps maintain comfort and air circulation inside the shoes. The anatomically shaped <strong>HI-POLY insole<\/strong> is made from lightweight polyurethane foam covered with MESH fabric. Its antistatic properties and cushioning design provide support during walking and prolonged standing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">A distinctive feature is the <strong>dual-density PU\/rubber outsole<\/strong>, manufactured using direct injection. It combines the cushioning properties of polyurethane with the durability of a rubber tread. The outsole is fuel-oil resistant, antistatic and slip resistant. Its <strong>HRO<\/strong> marking confirms contact heat resistance in testing at 300\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For mechanical protection, the shoes feature a <strong>composite safety toe cap and Kevlar midsole<\/strong>. The toe cap protects against impact and compression. The non-metallic midsole reduces the risk of penetration from sharp objects on the ground.<\/p>\n<h3>Areas of use<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>High Safety Shoes HALIFAX S3<\/strong> are suitable for construction, industrial manufacturing, maintenance, assembly, logistics and other demanding workplaces.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The PU\/rubber outsole with HRO certification is particularly useful where brief contact with hot surfaces may occur. Its fuel-oil resistance and additional slip resistance also make it suitable for many industrial environments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Water-repellent leather allows use during occasional exposure to moisture. The high-cut design provides additional ankle coverage. Meanwhile, the composite toe cap and Kevlar midsole protect against impact, compression and penetration hazards.<\/p>\n<h3>Material Composition and Technical Specifications<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Upper material:<\/strong> Water-repellent full-grain cowhide leather, 2.0\u20132.2 mm thick<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Lining:<\/strong> Laminated breathable MESH fabric<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Insole:<\/strong> HI-POLY \u2013 anatomically shaped lightweight polyurethane foam, MESH-covered, antistatic<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Outsole:<\/strong> PU\/rubber \u2013 dual-density, direct-injected, contact heat resistant at 300\u00b0C (HRO), fuel-oil resistant, slip resistant and antistatic<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Closure:<\/strong> Laces<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Sizes:<\/strong> 36\u201348<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Width:<\/strong> Standard<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Colour:<\/strong> Black with orange details<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Model:<\/strong> Men&#8217;s \/ Women&#8217;s, high<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Manufacturer:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmfootwear.cz\/index.php\/en\/\">VM Footwear<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Technical features:<\/strong> S3L, FO, HRO, SR, water-repellent upper, antistatic properties, heel energy absorption, fuel-oil resistance, additional slip resistance, contact heat-resistant outsole, penetration protection, dual-density PU\/rubber outsole<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Toe protection:<\/strong> Composite safety toe cap<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Midsole protection:<\/strong> Kevlar penetration-resistant midsole<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Standard:<\/strong> EN ISO 20345:2022 and EN ISO 20345:2022\/A1:2024 \/ S3L FO HRO SR<\/p>\n<h3>Standard Description<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>EN ISO 20345:2022<\/strong> standard specifies requirements for safety footwear. Protective toe caps must withstand an impact energy of 200 J and a compression force of 15 kN. HALIFAX features a composite safety toe cap.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The manufacturer classifies this model as <strong>S3L<\/strong>. This category includes toe protection, antistatic properties, heel energy absorption and a cleated outsole. It also requires resistance to water penetration and absorption in the upper. The <strong>L<\/strong> designation indicates penetration protection using a non-metallic insert tested with a 4.5 mm diameter nail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>FO<\/strong> marking confirms outsole resistance to fuel oil.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>HRO<\/strong> marking indicates outsole resistance to contact heat. Testing is conducted at 300\u00b0C. This does not mean the shoes are suitable for continuous exposure to that temperature.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>SR<\/strong> marking confirms additional slip resistance under EN ISO 20345:2022. Footwear is tested on ceramic tiles with glycerol.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The manufacturer also specifies <strong>EN ISO 20345:2022\/A1:2024<\/strong>, an amendment updating the requirements of the original standard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Water-repellent leather reduces water penetration and absorption but does not make the entire shoe waterproof. Antistatic properties help dissipate electrostatic charge. They do not provide electrical insulation against hazardous voltage.<\/p>\n<h3>Collection Description<\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>HALIFAX S3<\/strong> model belongs to the Safety collection by VM Footwear. Its key features include full-grain cowhide leather, a high-cut design, a composite safety toe cap and a Kevlar midsole.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The <strong>dual-density PU\/rubber outsole with HRO marking<\/strong> is particularly valuable in demanding working conditions. It combines contact heat resistance, fuel-oil resistance and additional slip resistance. The MESH lining and anatomically shaped HI-POLY insole complement the protective construction with everyday comfort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Choose <strong>High Safety Shoes HALIFAX S3<\/strong> when you need durable leather footwear with penetration protection and a contact heat-resistant outsole.
