SAFETY SHOE COMPONENTS
Safety footwear is often heavier at the front of the shoe due to the steel toe cap. This can cause the foot to flex in the incorrect place, putting strain on the intricate bones, tendons and muscles in the foot.
The shank is a support piece in the middle of the shoe between the leather upper and the midsole.
• Arch support• Comfort• Stability• Ensuring foot flexes in the correct place
SHANK REINFORCEMENT
The last is the shape on which the footwear is made. Every walking step exerts pressure up to three times your body weight onto your feet.
• Wider fit to ensure shoe fits comfortably in length and width• Takes into account the toes’ varying lengths• Plenty of space where the wearer needs it• Sits flush where the foot needs support• Wider fit also ensures that a thicker, more supportive sock can be worn comfortably
• SANS/ISO 20345 compliant• Can withstand an impact
load of 200 joules• Wide fit to ensure comfort• Covered with fabric to
ensure it cannot be felt while the shoe is being worn
LAST
A steel toe cap is the minimum requirement for footwear to be classified as “safety footwear”.
STEEL TOE CAP
The midsole is a foamy layer between the leather upper and the denser outer sole. This PU, or polyurethane layer comprises of small bubbles which ensure that the footwear remains light and comfortable. The midsole is also direct-injected ensuring that no glue or stitching is needed for strength.
• Air bubbles to ensure the footwear is light
• PU is durable• PU is flexible• Comfortable• Insulating• Shock absorbent
MIDSOLE
The unique Jonsson outer soles are of premium quality and imported from Italy. The quality of the outer sole is important and durability is essential, as this forms part of the shoe bearing the brunt of the contact with the walking surface.
• The Thermal polyurethane outer soles are SABS approved
• Flexibility• Cut resistance• Wear and abrasion resistance • Tear and crack resistant• Superior durability and shear strength• Heat resistance up to 95˚C• Anti-slip, anti-static, oil and acid resistant
Only the best quality full grain buffalo leather and suede leather is used to manufacture the uppers of the Jonsson Safety Shoes.
Full grain buffalo leather is an unaltered animal hide allowing for fibre strength and durability. This type of leather allows breathability, resulting in less moisture build up for a hygienic, temperature controlled foot environment.
Nubuck leather is an animal hide that has been slightly buffed on the outer layer providing a soft, velvet-like appearance.
• Extreme durability• Breathability• Looks better for longer• Stylish

SAFETY SHOE CARE
22
• If you are working in environments where there is risk of objects penetrating through the soles, a steel midsole is recommended for extra protection. • Regular maintenance of your footwear is
important. Remove dirt daily and leave in a well ventilated area to air dry.
• A clean sock is recommended to be used each day. For the best in foot care, a good quality cotton sock is recommended. • Remove the inner sole once a week and clean thoroughly. It is also recommended that you vacuum the inside of the shoe to get rid of loose debris.• To maintain the neatness of your leather upper, avoid scuffing.
The Jonsson safety footwear range has been specifically designed to withstand some of the toughest working conditions, and manufactured to be hardwearing and fitfor purpose.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
• This spun bonded cloth provided in every Jonsson shoe box can be used to polish your shoe.• Remove dirt and marks on the leather with a damp cloth.• Remove any further dirt with a commercial brush used for leather care.• Ensure that the sole tread pattern is regularly cleaned of any excess dirt or stones.• After the shoes have been cleaned, leave them in a ventilated environment to dry naturally.• Once your shoe is clean and dry, use a commercial leather shoe care product to polish your shoe.• For suede footwear, brush and use a commercial suede protector spray. If the suede gets wet, sponge
down the entire boot and stuff with newspaper while it dries to maintain its shape.
The PU midsole is biodegradable and therefore the footwear should not be left in a dark, unaired environment for periods of longer than 24 months.
NOTE:
The inner lining of the shoe as well as the inner sock is treated with a substance called Ultra-fresh. This substance has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, ensuring the wearer’s foot is protected from foot conditions and free from foot odour. The vamp lining also has excellent perspiration absorbency properties ensuring lower heat build-up inside the shoe for a healthier foot environment.

GUMBOOT CAREFoot hygiene is particularly important when wearing gumboots, as sweat cannot be absorbed by PVC and the combination of heat and sweat can become a breeding ground for bacteria and germs.
The polyester inner sock lining of the gumboot allows for easy cleaning and quick drying. A mild disinfectant can be used in the interior of the gumboot but must be rinsed thoroughly and left to air dry. The insole may be taken out, loose dirt removed and thereafter washed with mild soap and water and left out to dry.
The outside of the gumboot can be washed with mild soap and water. Chemicals or solvents should never be used, as these will cause the gumboot to become brittle and crack.
To remove soil build up in the tread pattern of the sole, use mild soap, water and a scrubbing brush.
Never use heat to accelerate the drying process.
