Product Overview
The Montmartre S3S LG FO SR is a sophisticated, low-profile safety shoe that refuses to compromise between formal appearance and heavy-duty protection. Crafted with a sleek, all-black water-resistant leather upper, this footwear is designed for the professional who moves between the office, the warehouse, and the site without wanting to change their shoes. It combines high-performing technical materials with an ergonomic design to ensure that safety feels as natural as a standard dress shoe.
Key Features
200 Joules Resistant Steel Toe-Cap: This provides essential protection against impact and compression, ensuring your feet are shielded from falling objects or heavy equipment in hazardous environments.
Puncture Resistant Midsole: Featuring a non-metallic Fresh'n Flex insert, this shoe protects against sharp objects like 3mm nails without the added weight or rigidity of traditional steel plates.
SR Rated Slip Resistance: Tested on ceramic surfaces with glycerin, the outsole provides superior grip to prevent slips and falls on challenging surfaces.
Ladder Grip (LG): The specific outsole design includes a dedicated grip zone for ladders, providing additional security for those working at heights.
SmellStop Antibacterial Lining: An integrated treatment that prevents the growth of bacteria and fungus, significantly reducing unpleasant odours and maintaining foot health.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Montmartre shoe is built around the AirTech Anti-Fatigue single-density outsole. This technology creates a cushioning effect that returns energy to the wearer, making a long shift on hard concrete feel considerably less taxing. The leather upper is treated for water penetration and absorption resistance, keeping your feet dry during brief exposure to wet conditions while maintaining vapour permeability for breathability.
Internally, the shoe features a Dry'n Air comfort insole which encourages air circulation, preventing the build-up of moisture. The Fresh'n Flex midsole is remarkably light, ensuring the shoe remains a manageable, sturdy weight rather than a heavy burden. Every element is ergonomically designed to promote efficiency and reduce the physical strain of repetitive movement.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take safety standards seriously. The Montmartre S3S is a piece of certified Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). We do not offer customisation, such as embroidery or heat-applied logos, on this item because piercing or heating the water-resistant leather upper could compromise its integrity and void its safety certifications. This ensures the product performs exactly as intended by the manufacturer to keep you safe.
Use Cases
These shoes are ideal for site managers, surveyors, and logistics supervisors who require the protection of an S3S rated shoe but prefer a discreet, professional aesthetic. The inclusion of the ladder grip makes them particularly suitable for maintenance staff or technicians who frequently use steps or ladders as part of their daily routine.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please note that the Montmartre is designed with distinct width fittings to accommodate different foot shapes: a 10.5 width for women and a 12 width for men. This ensures a more precise fit, reducing friction and the likelihood of blisters. If you are between sizes, we generally recommend choosing the larger size to allow for the natural swelling of the feet that occurs during long periods of standing.
Caring for your product
Proper maintenance of leather safety footwear is essential to ensure longevity and continued performance of the water-resistant properties.
Regularly remove dirt and debris from the leather upper with a soft brush or damp cloth. Allowing mud to dry on the leather can leach away natural oils, leading to cracking and the eventual failure of the water-resistant barrier.
Avoid drying your shoes near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the leather to become brittle and may affect the bond of the AirTech outsole. Allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area.
The SmellStop lining is highly effective, but we recommend rotating your footwear or removing the insoles periodically to allow the interior to fully dry out, which helps the antibacterial properties remain active for the life of the shoe.
