Safety trainers for work
Safety trainers give you a protective toe cap in a pair that looks and feels like normal trainers. They suit site work, warehouses and any job where you’re on your feet all day but don’t need the ankle support of a boot. If you do, our safety work boots are the better call. If you’d rather have a smarter leather style than a sporty one, take a look at our safety shoes instead.
Steel toe cap trainers or composite?
Steel toe cap trainers are a popular choice for site work, from budget Beeswift pairs to Portwest Steelite trainers. Composite work trainers use a non-metallic toe cap and are generally lighter, and we stock plenty, including Amblers, Solid Gear and JCB. A few pairs, such as the Puma Rio and Helly Hansen Chelsea Evolution, use aluminium toe caps. If you want to avoid metal altogether, see our non-steel safety footwear.
S1P or S3?
Many of our safety trainers are rated S1P or S3, and both include a protective toe cap and slip-resistant sole. S1P adds a penetration-resistant midsole and suits dry sites and indoor work. S3 has a water-resistant upper as well, so it’s the one to pick if you’ll be outdoors in wet weather. For something properly waterproof, we also have a few options, like the Apache Motion and the Solid Gear Hydra GTX, plus our waterproof safety boots.
Lightweight and comfortable safety trainers
Lightweight safety trainers are easier on your feet over a long shift. Many of ours have breathable uppers, and some use a BOA dial instead of laces, like the Solid Gear Vapor 3 and Portwest Compositelite Boa. There are slip-on safety trainers too, including the Portwest FD62, and black is the most common colour. Pair them with good workwear socks and they’ll stay comfortable well past lunch.
Men’s and women’s work trainers
Many of our trainers are unisex, so the men’s safety trainers and women’s work trainers overlap. There are also women’s-specific pairs, such as the Portwest FW39, Amblers FS47 and Helly Hansen Luna. A few styles carry anti-static or ESD protection, like the Puma Airtwist. Beyond the brands above, you’ll find safety trainers from DeWalt, JCB and Amblers.
