Product Overview
The Steelite Slip On Safety Shoe S2 FO SR is a highly specialised piece of footwear designed for professionals who demand both safety and convenience. Engineered specifically for the medical and food industries, this slip-on shoe eliminates the need for laces, reducing trip hazards and making it easier to maintain high hygiene standards. With its S2 safety rating, it provides a robust barrier against moisture and impact, ensuring your feet remain protected during long shifts in demanding environments.
Key Features
- Integrated Steel Toecap: Provides vital protection against heavy falling objects and compression, meeting rigorous safety standards for high-risk environments.
- Water-Resistant Microfibre Upper: The synthetic material acts as a barrier against spills and splashes, keeping feet dry while being significantly easier to sanitise than traditional leather.
- Excellent Slip Resistance: The outsole is designed to provide superior grip on ceramic and steel surfaces, reducing the likelihood of accidents on wet or oily floors.
- Fuel and Oil Resistant Outsole: Ensures the sole does not degrade when in contact with hydrocarbons, extending the life of the shoe in industrial settings.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a high-quality water-resistant microfibre, the upper of this shoe is both practical and durable. Unlike natural hides, this material is consistently uniform and withstands frequent cleaning without cracking. The interior is designed for comfort during prolonged periods of standing, while the mono-density PU outsole offers a balanced combination of cushioning and stability.
The shoe adheres to the EN ISO 20345:2022 S2 standard, which guarantees not only toe protection but also water penetration and absorption resistance. This makes it a reliable choice for environments where floor conditions are unpredictable and hygiene is paramount. Despite its protective features, the shoe maintains a manageable weight, ensuring that safety does not come at the cost of fatigue.
Why No Customisation?
As this is a specialised piece of safety footwear, we do not offer customisation services such as embroidery or printing. Altering the upper material of a safety shoe can compromise its water-resistant properties and may void its safety certification. Our priority is ensuring that the protective integrity of the Steelite range remains intact for your safety.
Use Cases
These shoes are ideally suited for professionals in the catering and food production sectors, including butchers, bakers, and kitchen staff. They are also a staple in medical environments and laboratories where a clean, professional appearance must be paired with anti-slip and protective functionality.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the type of socks you will be wearing. For the best fit in a slip-on style, we recommend a standard work sock that provides enough padding without causing the foot to feel constricted. As there are no laces to adjust, ensuring a snug fit at the heel is essential for maximum stability.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your safety shoes, regular maintenance is required. The microfibre upper should be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild detergent after every shift. Allowing organic matter or chemicals to sit on the material for extended periods can eventually degrade the surface and compromise its water-resistant finish.
We advise against drying these shoes near direct heat sources such as radiators. Rapid drying can cause the materials to become brittle and may affect the bond between the upper and the outsole. Instead, allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area. Periodically checking the tread for debris will also ensure that the slip-resistant properties remain effective.
