Product Overview
The Stockholm work shoe from the Base Run@Work range is a sophisticated piece of safety footwear designed for professionals who require the protection of a traditional boot with the agility and comfort of a modern athletic shoe. Built with a technical fabric upper and featuring the advanced EN ISO 20345:2022 S1 certification, this shoe is specifically engineered to meet the demands of fast-paced industrial environments where movement is constant and safety is non-negotiable.
Equipped with a suite of proprietary technologies including the anti-fatigue AirTech+Tpu-Skin sole and the antibacterial SmellStop lining, the Stockholm provides a comprehensive solution for foot health and workplace safety. Its sleek black and green design belies a substantial construction that offers resistance against punctures, hydrocarbons, and electrostatic discharges, ensuring you remain protected across various surfaces and conditions.
Key Features
- SlimCap Toe Protection: Unlike standard metal alternatives, the 6.5 mm SlimCap provides essential 200-joule impact resistance with a significantly reduced weight profile, ensuring comfort during long shifts without sacrificing safety.
- SmellStop Antibacterial Lining: This specialised lining prevents the proliferation of microorganisms responsible for odours and mycosis, maintaining a hygienic internal environment for the wearer.
- Fresh'n Flex Plus Super Light Insert: A high-performance, non-metallic insert provides robust puncture resistance against even small nails, ensuring the sole remains flexible yet impenetrable.
- SR Slip Resistance: Tested on ceramic and glycerin surfaces, the sole offers superior grip to prevent slips and trips in challenging workplace environments.
- ESD Protection: Designed to protect electronic devices from electrostatic discharges, making these shoes suitable for sensitive technical or manufacturing roles.
- HIFLAP Technology: Features two independent flaps that facilitate natural movement while guaranteeing stability in every position, reducing the risk of ankle strain.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Stockholm shoe is centered around the innovative AirTech+Tpu-Skin anti-fatigue sole. By reducing the tread thickness, Base has created a sole that offers greater elasticity and a lasting cushioning effect, which is vital for professionals who spend hours on their feet on hard surfaces. The technical fabric upper provides the necessary durability for daily wear while ensuring the shoe remains breathable.
Internally, the Dry'n Air Comfort Cub3 system maximises breathability and lightness. This works in tandem with the technical upper to move moisture away from the foot, keeping you dry and comfortable. The inclusion of a ladder grip and hydrocarbon-resistant materials ensures the shoe performs reliably in varied settings, from warehouse floors to external maintenance tasks.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on the Stockholm work shoe to ensure the absolute integrity of its safety certifications. Adding embroidery or heat-applied prints could potentially compromise the technical fabric upper or the specific ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) properties of the footwear. As a piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), maintaining the manufacturer's original specification is essential for your workplace safety compliance.
Use Cases
The Stockholm is perfectly suited for warehouse operatives, logistics personnel, and light industrial workers who require agile footwear with high-level protection. Its ESD properties make it an excellent choice for technicians and engineers working in electronics manufacturing or data centres. Additionally, the ladder grip feature makes it a safe option for those frequently climbing steps or rungs during their working day.

Practical Advice
The Stockholm shoe is available in specific widths for optimal comfort, with a Men’s Width 12 and a Women’s Width 10.5. We recommend selecting your standard shoe size, but do consider the type of work socks you intend to wear, as a thicker technical sock may influence the fit. The technical fabric upper is designed to be resilient, but regular inspection for wear and tear is advised to ensure the safety features remain effective.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your footwear is essential for ensuring its long-term safety performance and durability. Regular care prevents the degradation of technical materials and ensures the anti-fatigue properties of the sole remain effective over time.
We recommend cleaning the technical fabric upper with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution when necessary. Avoiding harsh chemicals or bleaches is vital, as these can break down the antibacterial properties of the SmellStop lining and weaken the fabric's structure. If the shoes become wet, they should be allowed to dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the TPU skin and soles to become brittle and crack.
To maintain the slip-resistant properties, ensure the tread is kept clear of debris and build-up. Regularly cleaning the outsole with a soft brush will help maintain the integrity of the ladder grip and SR-rated traction.
