uvex i-gonomics: uvex 1 sport. On trend. Pure athleticism.

Sporty design meets sophisticated functionality: The uvex 1 sport safety shoe is both youthful and stylish combined with first-class wearer comfort, thanks to its lightweight design, climate-optimised high-tech materials and an ergonomically shaped, flexible outsole made from dual-density polyurethane. As part of the uvex i-gonomics product system, the safety shoe measurably enhances wearer comfort at the workplace and beyond.

An extensive range of features
Virtually seam-free and based on a newly developed last, uvex 1 sport safety shoes in protection class S1 and S3 also impress with an extensive range of features. Made from synthetic materials, the shoes are ESD-capable and suitable for people allergic to chrome. The polyurethane outsole is abrasion-resistant and impresses with very good slip resistance values (SRC designation). The metal-free xenova® protective toe cap as well as the non-metallic, penetration-resistant midsole (S3 ver-sion) offer a high level of safety. uvex 1 sport safety shoes are also free from paint wetting impairment substances. Sizes 35 to 40 are produced using a women’s last. The removable comfortable insole provides cushioning around the forefoot and heel. With uvex 1 sport safety shoes, solutions tailored to orthopaedic requirements are available in accordance with DGUV (German Institute for Occupational Health and Safety) regulation 112-191 and Austrian ÖNORM Z regulation 1259 on request.

uvex i-gonomics – innovative foot protection. Measurably enhanced wearer comfort.
uvex i-gonomics stands for maximum functionality with first-class comfort: The inno-vative product system is perfectly adapted to the human physiognomy and is charac-terised by its outstanding absorption, low weight and optimal climate control. Standing and walking in safety footwear is noticeably more comfortable – all day long. The uvex 1 sport achieves an outstanding uvex i-gonomics relief index of 4.3 thanks to a low weight of just 475 g (S1 SRC, size 42), a high degree of flexibility (low flexural rigidity) and a high level of breathability.
