Product Overview
The Eris Top S1PL FO SR ankle shoe is a refined entry in the Smart Evo collection, designed for those who require rigorous protection without sacrificing comfort. Combining technical textile and suede leather, this shoe provides a balanced approach to modern industrial footwear, ensuring your feet remain protected while offering the breathability needed for long shifts.
Key Features
The 200 joules resistant SlimCap toe-cap offers vital protection against heavy impacts and compression, significantly reducing the risk of injury in high-risk environments.
An integrated puncture-resistant Fresh'n Flex fabric insole prevents sharp objects from piercing the sole, maintaining a barrier of safety underfoot.
Specialised shock absorption in the heel region mitigates the strain on joints during repetitive movement, which is particularly beneficial when working on hard surfaces.
The SmellStop lining features permanent antibacterial treatment to combat odours and bacterial growth, keeping the interior hygienic and fresh over time.
Equipped with an SR-rated slip-resistant Mono PU outsole, these shoes provide dependable traction on ceramic and glycerin surfaces, preventing slips and falls.
Design & Performance
The construction of the Eris Top reflects a sophisticated blend of materials. The technical textile and suede leather upper provide water resistance, which is essential for maintaining dry feet during light exposure to moisture. This material choice also ensures the shoe remains flexible, accommodating the natural movement of the foot rather than restricting it.
A notable technical aspect is the metal-free design. By excluding metal components, the shoe is lighter and non-conductive, making it suitable for environments with metal detectors or anti-static requirements. The Mono PU outsole is also resistant to hydrocarbons, ensuring durability even when in contact with oils or fuels.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take safety standards seriously. Because the Eris Top is a safety shoe certified to EN ISO 20345:2022, any structural modification or embroidery could potentially compromise the integrity of the protective materials or the water-resistant coating. To ensure you remain fully protected and compliant with health and safety regulations, we supply these as designed by the manufacturer.
Use Cases
This shoe is ideally suited for professionals working in light industry, warehousing, and transportation where puncture resistance and toe protection are mandatory. Given its anti-static properties and metal-free construction, it is also an excellent choice for personnel working in airports or high-tech manufacturing facilities where magnetic interference must be avoided.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the type of work socks you intend to wear. These shoes feature an orthopaedic made-to-measure footbed complying with DGUV112-191 norms, so they are designed to provide a precise fit. If you are between sizes, we generally recommend opting for your usual size as the SlimCap is designed to provide internal space without excessive external bulk.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your footwear, it is essential to clean them regularly. Use a soft brush to remove dirt from the suede and technical textile sections. Allowing dirt to build up can cause the fabric to degrade prematurely and reduce the effectiveness of the water-resistant properties.
Avoid placing these shoes near direct heat sources like radiators after use. Forced drying can cause the suede to become brittle and may affect the bond of the Mono PU outsole. Instead, allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area.
Treating the suede with a suitable protector spray can help maintain the water-resistant finish. Regular maintenance ensures the SmellStop lining continues to function effectively, keeping your footwear fresh for the duration of its service life.
