Product Overview
The Verdi S3 SRC represents a sophisticated approach to safety footwear within our Classic range. This ankle shoe is designed for professionals who require high-level protection without compromising on physical well-being during long shifts. It balances substantial protective elements with advanced comfort technologies, ensuring that the wearer remains supported from the first hour to the last. This is a sturdy safety shoe built for longevity in demanding industrial environments.
Key Features
Steel Toe Cap: The integrated 200-joule steel toe cap provides a critical barrier against impact and compression, ensuring the forefoot is protected from falling objects and heavy equipment.
Fresh’n Flex Midsole: This puncture-resistant midsole prevents sharp objects from penetrating the sole, offering essential underfoot security on busy or hazardous sites.
SmellStop Lining: An antibacterial and anti-odour lining maintains a hygienic internal environment, significantly reducing the build-up of bacteria that causes unpleasant smells.
Water-Resistant Upper: The upper material is engineered to prevent water penetration, keeping feet dry and comfortable when working in damp or unpredictable conditions.
Anti-Fatigue Outsole: The AirTech and Tpu-Skin technology in the sole provides superior shock absorption, reducing the strain on joints and muscles during extended periods of standing.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Verdi S3 SRC is rooted in its technical sole construction. The combination of AirTech and Tpu-Skin creates a flexible yet highly durable outsole that moves with the foot. This design focuses on reducing the thickness of the harder outsole layer, allowing for more cushioning material within. The result is a substantial safety shoe that feels surprisingly responsive.
Furthermore, the SRC slip-resistance rating ensures the highest level of grip on both ceramic and steel surfaces, even when covered with water or glycerine. The inclusion of an orthopaedic made-to-measure footbed, complying with European norms DGUV112-191, allows for professional modification for those with specific podiatric requirements without voiding the safety certification.
Why No Customisation?
The Verdi S3 SRC is a precision-engineered piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and is sold without customisation. This is to ensure the structural integrity and safety certifications remain intact. Adding embroidery would involve piercing the water-resistant upper, which would compromise the S3 rating. Similarly, high-heat transfer processes could interfere with the technical bonding of the AirTech outsole. We provide this item as-is to ensure your team remains fully protected and compliant with EN ISO 20345 standards.
Use Cases
These shoes are ideal for individuals working in construction, light engineering, and warehouse management. Given their resistance to hydrocarbons and anti-static properties, they are equally suited for automotive workshops or environments where static discharge must be controlled. They provide the necessary protection for any professional navigating a site where heavy machinery or sharp debris is present.

Practical Advice
The Verdi S3 SRC is available in both men’s and women’s widths to ensure a secure and comfortable fit across the workforce. We recommend pairing these shoes with high-quality, moisture-wicking work socks to maximise the effectiveness of the SmellStop lining. If you are between sizes, consider the substantial nature of the protective toe cap and ensure there is enough room for natural foot expansion throughout the day.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of your safety footwear is essential for ensuring continued protection and longevity. We recommend cleaning the uppers regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Allowing mud or chemicals to sit on the surface can degrade the water-resistant properties and weaken the material over time.
Always allow your footwear to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area. Never place them directly against a heat source, such as a radiator, as this can cause the technical materials to become brittle and may affect the bond between the upper and the outsole. Periodic treatment with a suitable leather or synthetic protector will help maintain the suppleness of the upper and extend the life of the shoe.
