There are a few tricks manufacturers like DeWALT use to boost flexibility without cutting protections. These are set amidst a combination of synthetic polyurethane and mesh–highly durable materials which don’t bog your feet down with excess weight or stiffness.

Still, the armoured bits retain convincing stiffness that tells you they’ll be able to take some abuse and walk away unscathed. Thus, you can take them into your workplace without fear of safety inspectors nabbing you for the transgression of wearing comfortable shoes.Not only do they have years of experience for smarter designs, they have access to the scale of production to make higher-quality builds and materials available for cheap.

While the DeWALT Plane is a low-cut safety trainer, it has protections to rival many full-sized work boots. This is doubly true for cheap, no-name trainers coming from overseas beyond the bounds of UK regulation.
