Product Overview
The Girder Composite Low Shoe S3S is a technically advanced safety shoe designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern industrial and service environments. Combining Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) properties with exceptional slip resistance, this shoe provides a stable and secure foundation for professionals. Its modern design prioritises both safety and efficiency, featuring a high-performance textile upper and a sophisticated closure system.
Key Features
- Innovative Wire Lace System: This mechanism allows for significantly faster lacing and a quick-release function, ensuring a precise, secure fit that remains consistent throughout the working day.
- Level A Cut Resistance: The heavy-duty textile upper is engineered to provide essential protection against sharp objects, reducing the risk of injury in hazardous workspaces.
- High Abrasion Toe Bumper: A reinforced front bumper shields the most vulnerable part of the shoe from wear and tear, ensuring longevity even when performing tasks that involve frequent kneeling or scuffing.
- Supportive TPU Back Part: The inclusion of a thermoplastic polyurethane heel section provides structural stability, helping to maintain correct foot alignment and reducing fatigue during long shifts.
Design & Performance
The construction of the Girder shoe focuses on high-durability materials that do not compromise the wearer's agility. The upper is made from a wear-resistant textile that offers substantial protection while maintaining flexibility. Beneath, the PU/PU outsole is designed for superior grip (SR) and is resistant to fuel and oil (FO), making it highly effective on varied floor surfaces. This is a sturdy, well-engineered shoe that provides the peace of mind required in professional settings.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on this specific item because it is a safety-critical piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Footwear must maintain its structural integrity and technical certifications; adding embroidery or heat-applied transfers could potentially damage the specialized fabrics or interfere with the ESD properties that are vital for your safety.
Use Cases
This shoe is highly recommended for those working in commercial kitchens, bakeries, or butchery environments where spills are common and slip resistance is non-negotiable. It is also perfectly suited for electronic manufacturing or laboratory settings where ESD protection is a mandatory requirement to protect sensitive equipment.

Practical Advice
When using the wire lace system for the first time, take a moment to ensure the tension is distributed evenly across the foot before locking it into place. This ensures maximum comfort. As these are composite shoes, they offer excellent protection without the thermal conductivity issues often associated with traditional steel, making them a more comfortable choice in temperature-sensitive environments.
Caring for your product
To maintain the safety performance of your footwear, it is essential to keep the outsoles clean. Regularly remove any trapped debris or grease from the tread pattern to ensure the slip-resistant properties remain fully functional. Neglecting this can significantly reduce your grip on smooth surfaces.
The textile upper should be cleaned with a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid soaking the shoes or using aggressive chemical detergents, as these can degrade the technical fibres and the adhesives used in the sole construction. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally; using direct heat sources like radiators can cause the materials to stiffen and may lead to premature cracking.
