Frequently Asked Questions

What does SB FO SRA rating mean?

The SB FO SRA rating under EN ISO 20345:2011 provides essential safety protection for indoor work environments. SB (Safety Basic) is the fundamental level of safety footwear certification, providing steel toe cap protection tested to 200 Joules impact resistance and 15,000 Newtons compression resistance. Unlike higher ratings such as S1, S2, or S3, SB footwear does not include additional features like antistatic properties, energy absorbing heel, or penetration resistant midsole. FO indicates the outsole is fuel and oil resistant, protecting against degradation from oils and maintaining traction. SRA confirms slip resistance on wet ceramic tile with cleaning agent. This makes the Workshire ideal for warehousing, logistics, and light indoor industrial work where basic toe protection, oil resistance, and slip resistance are required without the need for advanced safety features.

How does the Workshire compare to S3 safety boots?

The Skechers Work Workshire provides essential SB safety protection at a more economical price point compared to S3 rated boots. While S3 boots include steel toe cap, penetration resistant midsole, water resistant upper, antistatic properties, energy absorbing heel, and slip resistance, the Workshire focuses on fundamental toe protection with FO oil resistance and SRA slip resistance. This makes the Workshire an intelligent choice for indoor warehousing and logistics environments where penetration hazards are minimal, waterproofing is unnecessary, and budget is a consideration. For outdoor construction, wet conditions, or environments with sharp object hazards, S3 boots would be more appropriate. The Workshire excels in controlled indoor environments where workers need comfortable, economical toe protection with the legendary Skechers comfort for all-day wearability.

Does the Skechers Work Workshire run true to size?

Yes, the Skechers Work Workshire fits true to size with a relaxed, roomy fit that Skechers work boots are known for. We recommend ordering your regular UK shoe size. The design provides generous space in the toe box and midfoot area, making it comfortable for workers with average to slightly wider feet. The Memory Foam insole adapts to your foot shape, providing a personalized fit that becomes even more comfortable over time. Customer feedback consistently reports the Workshire is comfortable from the first wear with no break-in period required. If you have narrow feet, you may find the relaxed fit slightly roomy, while those with wider feet typically find the fit perfect for all-day comfort in a steel toe safety boot.

Is the Skechers Work Workshire suitable for outdoor work?

The Skechers Work Workshire is primarily designed for indoor work environments such as warehousing, logistics facilities, and light industrial settings rather than outdoor construction or field work. The SB rating provides essential toe protection suitable for indoor environments, but the boot lacks water resistance, which is important for outdoor work in wet conditions. The SRA slip resistance is tested on ceramic tile surfaces typical of indoor facilities rather than outdoor terrain. The leather upper provides some natural moisture resistance against light splashes, but the Workshire is optimized for controlled indoor environments. For outdoor construction, wet weather work, or environments requiring penetration resistance, consider boots with S3 or higher ratings. The Workshire excels in warehouses, distribution centres, and indoor facilities where comfort, toe protection, and oil resistant traction are the primary requirements.

What makes Skechers Work boots so comfortable compared to traditional safety boots?

The Skechers Work Workshire incorporates the same comfort innovations that made Skechers a global leader in comfortable footwear. The key difference is the Memory Foam cushioned insole that adapts to your unique foot shape, providing personalized comfort and support that traditional flat insoles cannot match. The relaxed fit design eliminates pressure points common in traditional safety boots, while the flexible construction allows natural foot movement rather than the stiffness often found in conventional work boots. Skechers engineering focuses on reducing foot fatigue during extended shifts through superior cushioning and ergonomic design. Customer feedback from warehouse workers and logistics professionals consistently confirms that Skechers Work boots like the Workshire significantly reduce foot pain and fatigue compared to traditional safety footwear, making them the preferred choice for workers who spend entire shifts on warehouse floors and in distribution facilities.
