Key Features
- 200 Joules Resistant Toe-Cap: Provides a robust shield for the front of the foot, protecting against impact and compression from heavy objects falling or rolling in the workplace.
- Shock Absorption Heel: Specifically designed to dissipate energy upon impact, this feature reduces the physical strain on your joints during long periods of standing or walking on hard surfaces.
- Hydrocarbons Resistant Sole: The outsole is treated to resist degradation when in contact with oils and fuels, ensuring the longevity of the shoe and maintaining grip in challenging environments.
- Anti-Static Properties: Built-in anti-static footwear technology prevents the accumulation of static electrical charges, protecting both the wearer and sensitive electronic equipment.
- DGUV112-191 Compliant Footbed: This orthopaedic made-to-measure footbed capability allows for custom support requirements while remaining fully compliant with European safety standards.
Design & Performance
The Concorde S1P FO SR is constructed with a focus on durability and inclusive fit. By offering both men’s and women’s widths, the shoe ensures a more secure and ergonomic fit for all team members, which is essential for preventing blisters and foot fatigue. Despite its substantial, sturdy build, the shoe maintains a low-profile silhouette that allows for excellent ankle mobility.
Performance-wise, the slip-resistant (SR) and fuel-oil resistant (FO) sole provides a stable foundation on various industrial surfaces. The materials chosen for the upper are designed to withstand the daily rigours of a busy site, maintaining their structural integrity even in high-activity roles. While we haven't quite managed to make safety footwear feel like a pair of slippers, the integrated shock absorption certainly makes a ten-hour shift feel considerably less like a forced march.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation, such as embroidery or heat transfers, on the Concorde S1P FO SR. The integrity of safety footwear is paramount; piercing the material with needles or applying high heat can compromise the protective membranes and structural strength of the shoe. To ensure these shoes continue to meet their EN ISO 20345:2022 safety certifications and protect your feet as intended, they are sold strictly as-is.
Use Cases
These shoes are ideally suited for indoor environments where toe protection and slip resistance are required but full water penetration resistance is not a primary concern. They are a staple choice for warehouse operatives, light industrial workers, and professionals in the automotive or logistics sectors who frequently encounter oil or fuel spills.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the type of work socks you intend to wear. A thicker thermal or cushioned work sock may require a slightly more generous fit. Given that these shoes offer specific widths for men and women, ensure you select the correct variant to benefit from the intended ergonomic support. For those requiring specific orthopaedic support, the DGUV112-191 compliance means you can use specialized footbeds without voiding the safety rating.
Caring for your product
To maintain the safety performance and extend the life of your footwear, regular maintenance is required. Start by removing loose dirt and debris with a soft brush after each shift. Keeping the outer material clean ensures that the shoe remains breathable and prevents the fabric from becoming brittle.
If the shoes become wet, allow them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. Forced drying with high heat can damage the internal components and the adhesive bonds of the sole, potentially compromising the safety features. Regularly check the outsoles for any embedded stones or debris to ensure the slip-resistant and hydrocarbon-resistant properties remain effective.
