Cofra Volga Safety Shoe S3

The Cofra Volga S3 SRC Safety Shoe. This Steel Toe Cap Safety Shoe is made with a water repellent printed leather, keeping the wearer’s foot dry in wet conditions.

Its external lining uses a breathable synthetic, while its internal lining is made using texelle 100% polyamide, a breathable abrasion resistant fabric that absorbs then releases moisture from the boot.

The Safety Boot’s footbed is made with Evanit, a nitrile special compound that has a focused, high bearing capacity and variable thickness. The Cofra Shoe’s sole is made with a dual density polurethane.

Cofra New Volga S3 SRC protects the wearer’s toes with a steel toe cap resistant to 200 J, partnered with a stainless steel midsole.

What is a S3 Rating ?

The S3 rating in safety footwear is a classification that indicates a shoe’s level of protection according to European safety standards. Specifically, the S3 rating builds upon the S1 and S2 ratings by offering additional protective features.

Here’s a breakdown of what each element of the rating signifies:

• S1: Basic safety features including a protective toe cap with impact protection of 200 joules, closed seat region (fully enclosed heel), antistatic properties, and energy absorption of the seat region.
• S2: All the features of S1, with added protection against water penetration and water absorption.
• S3: Includes all the features of S2, and adds penetration resistance (usually with a steel or composite midsole) to protect the foot from sharp objects penetrating the sole, and a cleated outsole for added grip.

Safety footwear with an S3 rating is designed for use in environments where there is a high risk of foot injuries from sharp objects, the need for waterproof protection, and situations requiring enhanced grip due to slippery surfaces.

This makes S3-rated footwear suitable for construction sites, manufacturing plants, and outdoor work environments where these hazards are present.
