Shoes for chefs

Footwear for cooks and the food industry

According to sanitary and hygienic standards, kitchen workers must be provided with a special uniform, and footwear is the most important part of it, since representatives of these professions spend many hours a day on their feet. Professional footwear for chefs has strict requirements - it must not only be comfortable and aesthetic, but also meet all safety standards.

Requirements for footwear for the food industry

Protective properties. Footwear for cooks - clogs, half-boots and shoes - must protect the staff's feet from burns caused by splashes of boiling water, as well as prevent mechanical injuries to the feet due to falling kitchen utensils, for example, knives. Therefore, when buying professional shoes for chefs, it is worth choosing models with closed toes and a durable sole.
Durability and easy cleaning. Shoes for the food industry often get hot, caustic liquids and parts of food that quickly contaminate the surface, so it is important that shoes and clogs are easy to wash. The material should be strong and durable, and also allow the skin to breathe.
Sole A comfortable grooved sole with a non-slip coating provides good grip on the floor, which reduces the risk of slipping on spilled oils, sauces and other liquids - which is often the cause of industrial injuries for kitchen workers.
Special insole. Shoes for food industry workers should have an anatomical insole that will relieve stress from the foot and prevent not only muscle overload, but also swelling that often occurs due to long working days on the feet.

It is preferable that the material from which shoes for food production are made is environmentally friendly, light and elastic. "Breathable" special shoes are hygienic, they prevent sweating, fungus and unpleasant odors.

The top of clogs and shoes for cooks and food industry workers are made of genuine leather or antibacterial microfiber, the sole is made of polyurethane. Such a sole does not slip on oil and other liquids, and also absorbs shock in the heel area, thanks to which workers in it are less tired.
