Safety footwear for electricians: protection starts from the feet up!

Protection and comfort for those who work with electricity

Anyone who works with electricity knows that safety is not a detail. A simple mistake can have serious consequences, and that is why protection must always come first.

If you are an electrician or work in the maintenance of electrical equipment, you know well the importance of following safety procedures and using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) suitable for the risks of your activity. Whether in contact with electrical installations, power cables, or electric vehicle equipment, choosing the right safety footwear for electriciansis part of preparing for a safe workday.

It was with these challenges in mind that we developed our VOLT1 collection, with the WATT and OHM models, which combine electrical protection features, comfort, and durability. And because we never stand still, we also have an option with a sportier attitude: the SPARK LOW, from the WORKOUT collection.

VOLT1 Features

High voltage? Protection cannot be an afterthought.

Our VOLT1 collection was developed with professionals who work in electrically hazardous environments in mind, including electricians and electric vehicle maintenance technicians. The WATT and OHMmodels have been subjected to electrical insulation tests at 18,000 V for one minute at 60 Hz, in accordance with the American standard ASTM F2413-18. But VOLT1 is about more than just electrical protection. There is much more to discover!

Comfort in every step

The PU midsole and cork insole combine cushioning and thermal insulation to keep up with the demands of your workday.

Anti-perforation protection

The non-metallic Q-Flex insole provides protection against the risk of sole perforation, in accordance with applicable technical requirements.

Grip and resistance

The Fusion sole, made of PU and nitrile rubber, features slip and contact heat resistance characteristics, in accordance with the models' specifications.

Dry feet, greater comfort

The nubuck leather upper and Sympatex membrane combine water resistance and breathability, helping to keep water out while releasing moisture generated inside the footwear.

Why should you choose VOLT1?

Because when safety is at stake, every detail counts.

The VOLT1 collection brings together features developed to meet the requirements of those who work with electrical risks:

Dielectric protection, under the conditions provided for by the applicable tests.
Waterproof and breathable membrane.
Non-metallic protective components.
Anti-perforation protection.
Comfort and thermal insulation.
Slip resistance.
Resistance to contact heat in the sole.

And because every professional has their preferences, we have two options for you.

What are the options?

WATT or OHM? The choice is yours!

If you prefer safety boots, choose the WATTmodel. This model features a higher cut design for those who value greater coverage of the ankle area.

If you are looking for a low-cut safety shoe, the OHMis the alternative.

Both share the main technologies of the VOLT1 collection but feature different formats. The choice should always take into account the comfort, fit, and protection requirements of your activity.

SPARK LOW – Protection gains a new attitude!

Do you prefer a sportier look? We have another option for you!

The SPARK LOW, from our WORKOUT collection, was developed for professionals who work with electrical risks, including electricians and electric vehicle maintenance technicians. With a modern design and lightweight, breathable materials, it combines dielectric protection features with comfort and freedom of movement. The highlight is the Triple Speed sole, which combines EVA and rubber to provide cushioning and grip while walking.

Like the VOLT1 models, the SPARK LOW has been subjected to electrical tests at 18,000 V.

Discover the SPARK LOW and get to know all its features.

What is the best safety footwear for electricians?

It depends on your job requirements!

If you prefer a safety boot, the WATTmay be your choice. If you value a low-cut design, you have the OHM.

And if you are looking for a sportier design, with lightness and cushioning, discover the SPARK LOW BLACK.

All three models feature dielectric protection characteristics, but you should always confirm that the certifications and conditions of use correspond to the risks of your activity.

Are ESD footwear and electrically insulating footwear the same thing?

No! ESD footwear allows for the control of electrostatic charge dissipation. Electrically insulating footwear is designed to help reduce the risk of electric current passing through the footwear, under the specific conditions provided for by the respective tests.

They are different functions, so it is essential to choose the right protection for your work.
