Product Overview
The Cosmos S3 ESD SRC from the Base Oxford collection is a sophisticated low-profile safety shoe that balances technical protective requirements with all-day comfort. Designed for professionals who require robust foot protection without the weight of traditional safety boots, this shoe is a masterclass in modern PPE engineering. It provides a comprehensive safety solution, including puncture resistance and impact protection, while maintaining a professional aesthetic suitable for various industrial settings.
Key Features
- Water-resistant upper: The upper material is engineered to prevent water penetration, keeping your feet dry and comfortable during outdoor tasks or in damp indoor environments.
- 200 Joules resistant toe-cap: The integrated SpaceCap provides vital protection against heavy falling objects and compression, ensuring your toes remain safe in hazardous conditions.
- Puncture resistant sole: Featuring a Fresh’n Flex midsole, this shoe protects against sharp objects underfoot, such as nails or shards, without sacrificing flexibility.
- ESD Protection: These shoes are specifically designed to protect electronic devices from electrostatic discharges, making them essential for high-tech manufacturing and laboratory environments.
- SmellStop Deluxe Lining: This innovative lining offers antibacterial and anti-odour properties, ensuring your footwear remains fresh even after a demanding shift.
Design & Performance
Performance is at the heart of the Cosmos design. The shoe utilizes an AirTech Single Density outsole, which provides a lightweight yet durable platform for long-term wear. This material choice ensures that the shoe remains flexible, reducing foot fatigue during extended periods of standing or walking. The men’s width fit is tailored to provide ample room without being loose, allowing for a secure and stable stride.
Furthermore, the shoe is completely metal-free. By using non-magnetic, nickel, and ferrous-free components, it is entirely metal detector friendly. This makes it an ideal choice for professionals working in high-security environments or those who frequently move through scanners, such as airport or logistics staff.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on the Cosmos S3 ESD SRC as it is a critical piece of Personal Protective Equipment. Any alteration to the shoe’s upper, such as embroidery or heat-transfer printing, could potentially compromise the water-resistant properties or interfere with the specialized ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) pathways. To ensure your footwear remains fully compliant with the UNI EN ISO 20345:2012 safety standards, we supply these items in their original, tested condition.
Use Cases
These shoes are ideally suited for professionals working in electronics manufacturing, automotive assembly, and light industrial sectors where ESD protection is a requirement. They are also a sensible choice for warehouse operatives and logistics personnel who require a sturdy, puncture-resistant shoe that remains comfortable for hours on end. Because they are metal-free, they are particularly advantageous for security personnel or anyone working in facilities with frequent metal detection checkpoints.

Practical Advice
The Cosmos is designed with a standard men’s width fit. When selecting your size, consider the type of socks you will be wearing, as thick thermal socks may require a slightly more generous fit. As these shoes feature a water-resistant upper, they provide a sturdy feel out of the box; however, the AirTech sole and Fresh’n Flex midsole are designed to provide flexibility quickly as you begin to wear them.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and safety certifications of your Cosmos footwear, regular maintenance is essential. Keeping the upper clean of dirt and debris will prevent the material from drying out or cracking, which ensures the water-resistant barrier remains intact for as long as possible.
It is important to regularly inspect the outsole for wear. The SRC slip resistance and ESD properties rely on the integrity of the sole's tread and material composition. If the tread becomes significantly worn or the sole is heavily contaminated with oils or chemicals, the protective qualities may be reduced. Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth after use and allow them to dry naturally away from direct heat sources to preserve the internal materials and the SmellStop lining.
