Product Overview
The London S1PS ESD LG SC FO SR from the Base Run@Work range is a sophisticated piece of technical footwear designed for those who require the agility of a running shoe with the unyielding protection of a safety boot. Engineered with a technical fabric upper, this shoe is substantial enough for industrial environments while remaining breathable. It is a metal-free solution that integrates advanced anti-fatigue technology, making it ideal for professionals who spend long hours on their feet and require a shoe that responds to their movements rather than restricting them.
Key Features
- SlimCap Non-Metal Toe-Cap: At just 6.5mm thick, this lightweight toe-cap provides 200 joules of impact resistance without the bulk or thermal conductivity of traditional steel.
- SmellStop Antibacterial Lining: This specialised hi-tech 3D fabric lining prevents the proliferation of microorganisms, effectively controlling bad odours and maintaining foot hygiene.
- Fresh'n Flex Plus Super Light Insert: An ultralight, non-metallic puncture-resistant insert that protects the sole of the foot from sharp objects like nails while maintaining flexibility.
- ESD Protection: Designed specifically to protect sensitive electronic equipment by discharging static electricity safely through the shoe to the ground.
- SR Slip Resistance: Tested for superior grip on both ceramic and glycerin surfaces, ensuring stability on challenging floors.
Design & Performance
The core of the London shoe’s performance lies in its AirTech+Tpu-Skin anti-fatigue sole. By reducing the thickness of the tread, Base has created a sole that offers greater elasticity and a persistent cushioning effect, which is vital for reducing leg fatigue during a shift. The technical fabric upper provides a flexible fit, while the TPU scuff cap protects the front of the shoe from high-impact damage during kneeling or crawling.
The inclusion of HIFLAP technology is a standout design choice. It utilises two independent flaps that facilitate natural foot movement while guaranteeing stability in varied positions. Complemented by the Dry'n Air Comfort Cub3 system, the shoe achieves maximum breathability and lightness, ensuring the internal climate of the footwear remains comfortable even during high-intensity activity.
Why No Customisation?
As a piece of safety footwear certified to EN ISO 20345:2022 standards, this item is sold without customisation. Modifying the shoe through embroidery or heat-sealing would compromise the structural integrity of the technical fabrics and could potentially invalidate the safety certifications, such as the ESD protection or puncture resistance. We prioritise your safety by providing these shoes exactly as the manufacturer intended.
Use Cases
These shoes are perfectly suited for professionals in electronics manufacturing, where ESD protection is non-negotiable. They are also an excellent choice for warehouse staff, delivery drivers, and tradespeople who frequently use ladders, thanks to the dedicated ladder grip feature. Being vegan-friendly and metal-free, they are a versatile choice for modern, security-conscious, or environmentally aware workplaces.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please note that this model is designed with specific widths in mind: 10.5 for women and 12 for men, ensuring a more ergonomic fit for different foot shapes. We recommend pairing these shoes with high-quality moisture-wicking socks to get the most benefit from the Dry'n Air breathability system.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your safety footwear is essential for ensuring it continues to provide the protection you rely on. Regularly removing dirt from the technical fabric upper with a soft brush or damp cloth will prevent abrasive particles from damaging the fibres over time.
Do not use harsh chemical cleaners or bleach on the London shoe, as these can degrade the TPU sole and the anti-fatigue properties of the material. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the technical fabrics to harden or crack.
To maintain the effectiveness of the SmellStop lining, ensure the shoes are allowed to breathe between shifts. Replacing the inner soles periodically, if they become worn, will help maintain the cushioning and anti-fatigue performance of the footwear.
