Let’s see now, one by one and more in detail, the 10 points to check for choosing the perfect economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear and the possible choices to make:

Indoor or outdoor use?

Make no mistakes here, if you work mostly indoor I recommend you not to choose a water resistant safety footwear. Don’t take water-resistant footwear unless at work you actually risk to wet your feet, as you would lose breathability. If your job is outdoors and it presents the risk of wet feet from sprays of liquids, then you should choose a water-resistant footwear.

Check the upper material

The different types of upper materials are full grain leather, printed leather, nubuck, suede leather, microfiber, textile, mesh. In general economical, cheap safety footwear water-resistant is made with economical buffalo printed leather and some PU materials for the collar and the tongue, while non water-resistant footwear is made with split suede leather and textile or mesh materials for the collar and the tongue. As I told you in the previous point, water-resistant leather is less breathable, especially buffalo leather and the parts of PU, so you should choose your economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear looking at the breathability of the materials.

Try to always go with the most breathable materials, choose open textiles and mesh, perforated uppers and grain leathers, as breathability is one of the major features that you are apt to lose when preferring economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear. So I suggest to you to try to get the most breathable product.

Check the toe cap

You know that the different types of toe caps are:

  • Steel (metallic)
  • aluminum (metallic)
  • plastic (composite) (non metallic)
  • carbon fiber (non metallic)
  • fiberglass (non metallic)

I doubt that you’ll find economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear with fiberglass, aluminum or carbon fiber toe caps, most likely you’ll find steel and composite toe caps. In this case your choice should depend from your specific needs. Choose steel if you need superior protection and composite if you need lightness.

Check the puncture resistant plate

You know that the different types of puncture resistant plates are two, that is:

  • Steel
  • textile

I would always go with textile plates because steel, in most economical footwear, can be not very well treated, in which case it could develop rust.

Check the comfort insole

This is one of the things that you should check while choosing your economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear because some manufacturers save on the insoles to lower prices. Check the comfort insole and choose a safety footwear with a removable one (it will allow you to change it when it’s worn out) and try to get a shoe with a thick insole, at least in the heel area. Imagine to walk or stand all day with no heel support and impact absorption.

Check the weight and flexibility

The weight of the footwear usually depends from the materials of which it is made. Steel parts are heavier than plastic, so in general footwear with a composite toe and a textile plate will weigh less than footwear with a steel toe and steel plate. The outsole has a big influence on the weight of the footwear too.

Check the side and tongue padding

Some manufacturers lower costs by reducing the padding, especially in the sides and in the tongue area. Make sure to check the padding of your economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear because it won’t be so comfortable to wear badly padded footwear all day.

Check the composition of the outsole

The outsole has a big influence on the comfort of footwear, because it affects flexibility and weight. PU is a very light material but in some types of work you’ll need outsoles made of other materials like rubber, that will make the shoe heavier. I recommend PU or PU/PU footwear if you do a regular job, PU/TPU if you need high abrasion resistance, EVA/RUBBER or PU/RUBBER if you need some chemical resistance and full rubber for special needs.

Check if there are additional features

Take economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear with additional features only if you need them, because overprotection is often not needed and leads to higher prices and, in some cases, lower comfort. So check the additional features in the list that follows, and decide if you really need them:

  • PR = puncture resistance
  • WP = waterproof resistance
  • M = metatarsal protection
  • ankle protection

Check the slip resistance

You might decide to take the most economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear and then have an accident by slipping on a floor. If you run this type of risk you better check the slip resistance of your economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear

 

I’m sure that there are some more details that you take into account when choosing your safety footwear, but these are the most important ones. Now you know the 10 points to check in order to choose the perfect economical safety footwear, cheap safety footwear for your needs.
