Product Overview
The Cobalto S2 HRO SRC is a specialist low shoe designed specifically for professionals in the hygiene and food production sectors. This white safety shoe combines a clean, clinical aesthetic with heavy-duty protection, meeting the rigorous EN ISO 20345: 2011 S2 standard. It offers a sophisticated balance between a professional appearance and the technical requirements of high-pressure environments where floor conditions and temperatures can be unpredictable. Its sturdy construction provides the wearer with confidence in hazardous settings while maintaining a smart, uniform look.
Key Features
200 Joules Resistant Toe-Cap: This integrated safety feature provides essential protection against falling objects and compression, ensuring foot safety in busy industrial workspaces.
Water Resistant Upper: Specifically engineered to prevent water penetration, these uppers keep your feet dry and comfortable during long shifts in damp or wet environments.
Heat Resistant Outsole: The sole is designed to withstand temperatures of up to 300°C for one minute (HRO), making it suitable for environments with hot surfaces or floor-level heat hazards.
Heel Shock Absorption: Built-in cushioning in the heel region reduces the impact on joints and muscles, which is vital for those standing or walking on hard floors for extended periods.
Anti-Static Protection: These shoes help to dissipate static electricity, protecting both the wearer and sensitive electronic equipment from electrostatic discharge.
Design & Performance
This footwear is built on a men’s width last to provide a stable and comfortable fit for the professional foot. Despite its sturdy and substantial construction, the shoe is designed for high-performance use throughout a full working day. The upper materials are selected for their durability and resistance to hydrocarbons, ensuring the shoe remains intact even when exposed to oils or chemical spills common in industrial kitchens or laboratories. The SRC slip resistance rating indicates that the sole has been rigorously tested for grip on both ceramic and steel surfaces, providing excellent traction where it matters most.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on the Cobalto S2 HRO SRC because it is a certified piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Any modification to the upper, such as embroidery or heat-applied logos, could potentially compromise the water-resistant membrane or the structural integrity of the shoe. To ensure you remain fully protected and that the footwear continues to meet its EN ISO 20345 safety certification, we provide this item only in its original, tested form.
Use Cases
This footwear is ideal for professionals working in the food processing industry, industrial kitchens, laboratories, and pharmaceutical environments. Its white colour is particularly suited to roles where visible cleanliness and hygiene standards are mandatory. It is an excellent choice for those working around hot equipment or in areas where liquid spills are a frequent workplace hazard.

Practical Advice
As these shoes are built to a men’s width specification, we recommend checking your sizing carefully to ensure a secure fit that prevents internal foot movement. A proper fit is crucial for the shock absorption and toe-cap placement to work effectively. We suggest pairing these with high-quality moisture-wicking socks to complement the water-resistant properties of the shoe and maintain a healthy environment for your feet during long shifts.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the cleanliness of your safety shoes is vital for both hygiene and the longevity of the materials. We recommend regularly wiping the uppers with a damp cloth and a mild detergent to remove contaminants and maintain the integrity of the water-resistant barrier. Allowing dirt to build up can eventually degrade the surface material.
Ensure the shoes are allowed to dry naturally at room temperature. Placing them too close to direct heat sources, such as radiators, can cause the materials to become brittle or compromise the adhesives used in the sole construction. Regularly inspect the soles for wear and tear, as the slip-resistant and heat-resistant properties can diminish if the tread becomes excessively worn or clogged with debris.
