What to consider before buying

There are several dangers and risks in the daily life of a mechanic, so it is essential to prioritise safety at work and understand how to counteract these risks.

As always, you can count on TOWORKFOR to help you understand the main features you should look for in footwear for work as a mechanic.

What features should Safety Footwear for Mechanics have?

Protective toe cap: The protective toe cap is important to resist impacts and falls of heavy objects. There are several types of toecaps. Aluminium, steel or composite, are the types of toecaps that you can find in TOWORKFOR footwear.

Non-slip sole: Mechanics often deal with oils and chemicals, which can cause slips or falls. So make sure you choose shoes that are resistant to these substances, and have non-slip soles.

Comfort for prolonged use: Make sure that the shoes are comfortable and suitable for your movements. If you spend many hours of the day squatting or on your knees, we advise you to wear trainers or shoes.

Strength and durability: Prioritise sturdy, durable, high-quality footwear to withstand daily wear and tear and harsh mechanical conditions. In addition, high-quality shoes also ensure superior safety and protection.

Work Shoes for Mechanics from TOWORKFOR

Michelin Full Grip Collection

The Michelin Full Grip Collection is characterised by its nitrile rubber outsole, excellent resistance to high temperatures, fuel, oils and fire – up to 300 °C. The MICHELIN NORTH sole is inspired by ice and mud tyres, providing a multifunctional sole with traction, grip and total control.

The best-sellers of the collection

The Wheels model is non-metallic, highly resistant. It has a Heel support system to help with leg stability and heel protection.
The Gear model is produced in very durable, flexible, breathable and water-resistant Brown Leather.
Brake shoes are the ideal choice for working long hours on your knees, or nestled in, as they allow for better foot flexion. Like Wheels, they also have a heel support system.

These are our hints and tips for Mechanics, but they also apply to jobs that are in contact with oils.
