The Nairobi ESD safety shoe from the RED 360 series, manufactured by U-Power, combines high protection standards with wearing comfort for professional use. This unisex low shoe in sizes 35 to 48 is distinguished by its black/orange color scheme and the breathable upper material made of perforated suede leather and nylon inserts. The composite toe cap and metal-free puncture protection offer optimal safety, while the slip-resistant and oil-resistant PU/PU outsole provides additional stability. The standards DIN EN 61340-5-1, EN ISO 20345 (S1P, SRC) confirm its suitability for various work environments. Additional features such as the breathable microfiber lining, the antistatic property, and the footbed with anti-fatigue insert, which can be replaced by orthopedic insoles according to DGUV 112-191 and ÖNORM Z 1259, emphasize the functionality of this shoe. Weighing about 540 grams in size 42 and standard width 11, this shoe offers an excellent balance between protection and comfort.
Shoes have been tested in accordance with the specifications of DIN EN 61340. They generally have a volume resistance of 7.5 x 10^5 to 3.5 x 10^7 ohms.
Safety class S1P
Shoes with a protective toe cap made of aluminum, plastic or steel. They are slip-resistant, antistatic and have energy absorption capacity in the heel area. They also have a puncture-resistant steel midsole and a closed heel area. A fuel-resistant sole is also possible.
Metal-free toe cap
Metal-free toe caps are plastic/composite toe caps made of fiber-reinforced plastic. They are lighter than steel or aluminum caps and are not thermally conductive.
Slip resistance SRC
The shoe is slip-resistant both on ceramic tiles with NaLS (sodium sulphate solution) and on steel floors with glycerine.
Penetration protection/midsole metal-free
The penetration protection protects the foot from nails and other sharp objects. Metal-free penetration protection made of textile fabric is lighter and more flexible and covers the entire surface of the foot. However, very sharp objects can penetrate it.
Metal-free
The shoe is completely metal-free. It is made of textile material and plastic elements (protective toe cap, eyelets, etc.).
Exchangeable insole
The insole is not firmly integrated into the shoe, but only inserted loosely. It can therefore be easily replaced if necessary.
DGUV 112-191
This regulation stipulates that orthopaedic insoles may only be used in safety footwear in conjunction with a valid type examination. This is to ensure that specified and tested properties (e.g. antistatic properties) are maintained.
BASF Infinergy®
Elastic like rubber, but resiliently light. The world's first expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (E-TPU). Combines the properties of TPU with the advantages of foams. Infinergy® has a low density, is extremely elastic and abrasion-resistant and has very good resilience. Infinergy® also has a permanent load-bearing capacity in a wide temperature range (-20 to over +40°C).
Toe cap Airtoe Composite
The revolutionary safety cap that allows the foot to breathe thanks to its innovative AirToe technology. AirToe is the answer to the need for breathability in safety footwear. It weighs approx. 60 g and is made of 200 joules of composite material.
Save and Flex plus
The exclusive puncture-resistant "no metal" insole is lighter than traditional steel, more flexible and safer. It is connected directly to the shaft and guarantees 100% penetration resistance.
U-POWER uses only the high-quality, puncture-resistant "Save & Flex" PLUS insole for all of its own products, the pressure load of which is far higher than required by the current standard.
Insole WOW
The WOW insole with an anatomical structure is made of a soft, dynamic material compound from BASF with an excellent self-sculpting property that evenly distributes body weight over the entire sole of the foot. This means more comfort and a long-lasting sense of well-being.
