Each year millions of workdays are lost due to injury. Safety shoes protect your feet from injuries in the most hazardous of environments, but safety shoes are designed primarily for protection, comfort is secondary. Wearing inferior safety shoe day-in, day-out becomes a hazard in itself. More than twice the days lost to injury are lost to pain and discomfort.
Most pain & discomfort can be traced to wearing the wrong type / size / fit of shoe. In fact, 80% of workers are wearing the wrong type of shoe i.e. shoes as per the wrong hazard.
Common Issues arising due to ill-fitting shoes include:
-
Heel & arch pain (Plantar Fasciitis Metatarsalgia)
-
Ingrown nails
-
Blisters
-
Calf, leg & foot crowns
-
Knee and back pain
-
Hammer toe & hallux valgus
-
Neuromas in the foot
Merely, wearing shoes with the right fit ensures that all the support and cushioning technology in the shoe are aligned at the proper place, so you get the benefit and protection that the shoe provides.
