Your feet possess some of the smallest bones of the body, making them among the more vulnerable parts of your body to injuries. You should always be aware of the potential for foot injuries and falls that can occur and how you can avoid foot injures with safety shoes and safety boots. This is especially true depending on your occupation.

Different industries and job responsibilities expose individuals to different dangers and potential injuries. One of the best ways you can guard against injuries is to get foot protection with safety shoes.

If you work under generally wet conditions you’ll want to look for safety shoes that feature thick rubber soles. Some of the most common workplace accidents are slips and falls caused by wet and slick floors. Rubber sole shoes will help your feet maintain a solid grip on wet surfaces.

If you are a construction worker and heavy industrial worker you should definitely consider steel toed safety shoes or boots. These shoes and boots can provide essential protection against dropped materials and sharp objects because they use a steel reinforcement in the toe area of the shoe. Leather work boots provide the ultimate in comfort, protection, and durability but to protect the foot they should have steel reinforced toes.

Regardless of the industry you work in, you should also consider safety boots that feature high-ankle support. Shoes that feature material that reaches as high to at least a quarter of the calf will provide much needed support. The additional ribbing along the length of the upper section of the shoe will provide the optimal amount of support as well as foot protection.

Safety shoes and safety boots cost a little more than regular shoes and boots but they are well worth the investment to prevent foot injuries.
