Features

Safety Standards

  • SRA: Slip Resistant with Water on Ceramic Tiles

    Benefit: Provides sufficient slip resistance to prevent a fall when working on soapy wet tiles.

    What is it: Australian Standards 2210.3:2019 Additional Classification. SLS (soapy water) solution on ceramic tile test. Slip resistance coefficient only heel contact is > 0.28, and slip resistance coefficient with whole shoe flat contact is > 0.32.

    Where is it: Outsole

Outsole

  • Perpetual Rubber™

    Benefit: Hardest wearing material enhancing the durability and longevity of the shoe. Excellent traction between the shoe and the ground. Non-marking.

    What is it: Specially formulated vulcanized rubber.

    Where is it: On the bottom of the shoe where it contacts the ground.

Cushioning

  • Arch Support Insole (PU)

    Benefit: Arch support insole with increased arch support and more cushioning. Longer lasting than other insole materials. Removable, and so able to be replaced with orthotics if needed.

    What is it: Polyurethane sponge formed to cup around the heel and under the arch (thicker under the arch than our normal arch support insole providing more support).

    Where is it: Inside the shoe, directly under the foot.

  • BUNGEE™

    Benefit: Provides great energy return over a long period, so that the spring stays in your step no matter how far you walk or run.

    What is it: Bouncy elastic sponge material.

    Where is it: Mostly used in the midsole (for a limited number of styles), or the insole.

  • EVA

    Benefit: Soft, lightweight cushioning that absorbs impact shock.

    What is it: ethylene-vinyl acetate

    Where is it: The midsole of the shoe, which is the part under the foot, between the outsole and the upper.

  • POLIMAX® Strobel

    Benefit: Cushions and protects the area directly underneath the foot. Assists in keeping the foot cool, and controlling sweat.

    What is it: Open cell soft urethane foam.

    Where is it: Stitched to the upper underneath the insole.

Stability

  • Heel Stabiliser

    Benefit: Additional heel stability and ‘hold’ around the base of the heel. The Scholar style has an extended heel stabilizer, providing additional medial stability for over-pronators.

    What is it: A hardened thermoplastic urethane moulded wedge.

    Where is it: Wraps around the base of the upper at the heel, between the upper and the midsole. The flange extends under the thermoplastic heel counter, holding it in place.

  • Kinetic Matrix™

    Benefit: A system of technologies combining to enhance gait efficiency and reduce fatigue to the foot and lower limbs.

    What is it: Firm, lightweight sculpted EVA cradle, Full length BUNGEE cushioning and a thermoplastic heel stabiliser.

    Where is it: The midsole of the shoe, which is the part under the foot, between the outsole and the upper.

  • Nylon Shank

    Benefit: Supports the arch area of the foot, and prevents the shoe from bending in the wrong place (in the middle of the shoe). The shoe should naturally bend across the joints in the forefoot region.

    What is it: A hardened nylon piece.

    Where is it: Placed internally (in the sole) in the arch area of the shoe.

  • TR ExoFrame

    Benefit: Supports the ankle and holds the heel firmly in place, providing excellent stability when the foot first strikes the ground. A firm heel counter is essential for fundamental support and stability.

    What is it: Thermal Rubber material that is shaped to match the contours of your heel.

    Where is it: Inside the upper part of the shoe, surrounding the back and sides of the heel.

Upper

  • Full Grain Leather

    Benefit: Hard wearing and breathable, becoming richer and deeper with wear, molding and adapting to your foot like no other material. Resistant to high temperatures, resistant to tearing, cracking, and peeling. It’s naturally insulating, but also breathable.

    What is it: Natural full grain cow hide, tanned and dyed through with authentic techniques. This is the premium grade of leather.

    Where is it: On the upper (top part)

  • Medial Self-Locking Zip

    Benefit: Easy on-off capability for ease of wear. Lacing system still allows complete fit adjustability.

    What is it: Side zip with self locking mechanism.
