FAQ
Everything you need to know
-
What does S1P mean?
S1P is a European safety classification that includes a protective toe cap, antistatic properties, energy absorption in the heel, fuel-oil-resistant soles and puncture resistance underfoot. XNEXZ shoes meet this standard.
-
Are lightweight safety shoes as safe as heavier boots?
Yes. Quality lightweight safety shoes meet EN ISO 20345 or ASTM standards and still provide toe protection, slip resistance, antistatic features, and underfoot support.
-
Who should wear S1P safety shoes?
They’re ideal for workers in construction, electrical trades, plumbing, warehouses, delivery and other roles where you need reliable protection in dry working environments.
-
Do they resist oil and acid?
Yes. The soles are designed to resist oils, and the materials provide acid and alkali resistance, helping to protect you in varied industrial settings.
-
Are they waterproof?
They’re resistant to water penetration and splashes but aren’t fully waterproof. For wet conditions, consider additional over-boots or our waterproof models when they become available.
