THE RIGHT FIT CHANGES EVERYTHING: THE POWER OF TRUE-FITTING FEMALE PPE

Women in safety-critical roles don't always get female-fit safety footwear.
That means they don’t get the comfort they deserve and the safety they need.

We’re changing that - and by becoming involved in our campaign, you are too.

MARIA’S STORY

This is Dr. Maria Smith, a Critical Care Doctor with Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance.
Her fascinating interview shines a light on how being comfortable in her PPE plays an important part in her carrying out this life-saving work

Women are generally a bit smaller, a bit
less muscular – we're already at a disadvantage, and we don’t need further
disadvantages from ill-fitting clothing.

We only go to the most severe accidents,
where people are really seriously injured – and we don’t want to be distracted by
ill-fitting footwear.

THE PROBLEM OF POOR-FITTING PPE FOR WOMEN

The Problem

Wearing scaled down men's PPE has a massively negative impact on:

Comfort
Safety
Well-being and mental health
Value and belonging
Career Progression

How?

The female foot is different from men's in several ways. Women's feet have:

A smaller Achilles tendon
Higher arches
A shallower big toe
A lower instep
A more curved inside line

OUR SOLUTION

Because the female foot is a different anatomical shape from that of a man’s, we built the V12 specialist True Women’s Fit last: sculpted using over 2,000 scans of global female foot shapes, so our
safety styles reflect the universal female foot, contouring wider and narrower foot shapes, and offering the most comfortable fit.

Whether you're a Health and Safety Manager aiming to reduce accidents and increase comfort, or a safety supplier wanting to stock an award-winning footwear range, we have the solution for you.

As innovators in foot health and safety, we're dedicated to helping you and your team.
