Product Overview
The Scuba S1P SRC from the Base Record collection represents a significant step forward in professional footwear engineering. These low shoes are not merely a piece of attire but are precision-engineered tools designed for those who spend their working day on their feet in demanding environments. Combining a sleek Black and Orange aesthetic with rigorous safety standards, they provide a professional appearance without compromising on the protective features required by modern industry standards.
Key Features
- 200 Joules Resistant Toe-Cap: This integrated safety feature provides critical protection against heavy falling objects or compression, significantly reducing the risk of foot injuries in hazardous zones.
- Puncture Resistant Sole: The reinforced sole acts as a barrier against sharp objects such as nails or glass, ensuring your feet remain safe even when navigating sites with underfoot hazards.
- Shock Absorption in the Heel: By absorbing the energy generated during walking, this feature reduces the strain on your joints and lower back, which is vital for long shifts on hard surfaces.
- Hydrocarbons Resistant: The sole material is specifically formulated to resist damage from oils and fuels, preventing the degradation of the shoe and maintaining grip in slippery conditions.
- Orthopaedic Compatibility: These shoes are designed to accommodate made-to-measure orthopaedic footbeds complying with European norms DGUV112-191, allowing for a personalised fit that supports long-term musculoskeletal health.
Design & Performance
The Scuba S1P SRC is built with a substantial, sturdy construction that reflects its technical capabilities. The low-shoe design offers greater flexibility at the ankle, making it ideal for roles that require frequent crouching or movement. The fabric and sole materials are selected for their durability and performance under pressure, meeting the EN ISO 20345: 2011 S1P (SRC) standards for safety footwear. The SRC rating specifically denotes the highest level of slip resistance, providing confidence when walking on both ceramic and steel surfaces covered with water or glycerine.
Inside, the shoe is tailored to a men’s width, ensuring a secure and stable fit that prevents internal foot movement, which can lead to blisters or instability. The anti-static properties further enhance safety by preventing the build-up of static electricity, a critical requirement in many technical and industrial settings.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on the Scuba S1P SRC because these are classified as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Any modification, such as embroidery or heat-seal printing, could potentially compromise the structural integrity of the shoe or interfere with its certified safety ratings. When it comes to safety footwear, we believe that maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications is the only way to ensure your protection is never compromised.
Use Cases
These shoes are perfectly suited for professionals working in logistics, warehousing, light manufacturing, and indoor trades. If your role involves navigating environments where underfoot hazards and falling objects are a risk, but you also require the comfort of a shock-absorbing shoe, the Scuba S1P SRC is an excellent choice. They are particularly useful for workers who require orthopaedic adjustments to their footwear without losing the protection of a certified safety shoe.

Practical Advice
Given the sturdy weight and men's width of the Scuba S1P SRC, we recommend pairing them with high-quality work socks to ensure maximum comfort and moisture management. If you require orthopaedic insoles, please ensure they are fitted by a professional to maintain compliance with the DGUV112-191 standards mentioned in the technical specifications.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your safety footwear is essential for ensuring they continue to provide the protection you rely on. We recommend cleaning your shoes regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Allowing mud or chemicals to sit on the surface can cause the materials to dry out and crack over time, which would compromise the hydrocarbon resistance and overall durability.
If your shoes become wet, always allow them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. Excessive heat can damage the adhesives and synthetic components, leading to premature failure of the shoe's construction. Proper care ensures that the shock absorption and anti-static properties remain effective for the life of the product.
