Do You Really Know About Anti-Slip Safety Shoes?

The picture below shows a pair of non-slip safety shoes with a predominantly black and grey upper. Many people would think that anti-slip safety shoes are just like their name, they are able to resist water or oil on the ground etc. and prevent you from slipping and falling. Do you think you already know a lot about slip resistant safety shoes?

If you think you already know a lot, I recommend coming to Kameymall to try and pick out a pair of anti-slip safety shoes for yourself. Today, I would like to share with you a few common misconceptions about choosing safety shoes.

Myth 1: Oxfords are the most slip resistant

Many people buy shoes, and the attendant will mostly introduce shoes with a cowrie sole, which has a good, non-slip sole. In fact, the wear resistance of shoes with cowhide soles is the best, but natural rubber soles are the most non-slip. This is because the cowrie sole will slowly harden in the cold winter low temperature environment, therefore affecting the anti-slip effect of the sole. Natural rubber soles, on the other hand, are more resistant to cold than cowhide soles and therefore have the best slip resistance.

Myth 2: The more patterns, the more slip-resistant

Everyone thinks that the more patterns on the sole, the more slip resistant it is. In fact, this is not absolute. If you have done experiments, you will find that through the experiments you can see that the greater the friction on the sole, the shorter the gliding distance, and the relatively better the slip resistance of the shoes. And the larger the area that actually touches the ground, the greater the friction.

The pattern of the sole can effectively increase the contact area between the shoe and the road, and on some gravel, earth, lawn and other surfaces the raised pattern of the sole can penetrate deep into the soft road surface, so that the vertical part of the raised pattern also becomes the part in contact with the ground, thus greatly increasing the friction. On the street and even on tiled floors, which have a very hard surface, the pattern on the sole reduces the contact area between the shoe and the ground and significantly reduces friction. So the pattern of the sole does not have to be the more the better, the deeper the more non-slip, but the material of the sole is soft and resilient, so the non-slip nature of the sole is good.

Recommendations

The actual contact area varies depending on the softness of the sole material and the instantaneous deformation of the material. The actual contact area of softer materials is usually higher, resulting in higher friction and increased slip resistance. The safety shoes in the picture have a rubber sole, so they are very effective in preventing slipping. If you want to buy non-slip safety shoes, whether they are for men or safety shoes for women, you can come to Kameymall.
