One of the technologies used by Base Protection is LifePlus, designed to improve adherence on all types of surfaces and reduce the abrasion of the outsole in work environments characterized by the presence of water-based liquids, such as agri-food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
The polyurethane formulation prolongs the life cycle of the shoe and preserves safety and comfort for the entire duration of the outsole, giving extreme resistance to Base Protection shoes that are equipped with this technology.
Specifically, LifePlus guarantees:
In the Extreme version, LifePlus technology is combined with the HRO rubber sole, ideal for outdoor works, as it guarantees stability on uneven surfaces, protection from attack by liquids and maximum resistance to low temperatures.
All Base Protection waterproof models, with the new H2st0p technology, ensure total waterproofing for working in environments characterized by the constant presence of liquids without giving up the extreme comfort of Base Protection footwear.
The direct heat sealing on the upper prevents the accumulation of water between the upper and the lining, avoiding the increase in the weight of the shoe.
It prevents water from getting in, which in cold temperatures would freeze the feet.
100% WATERPROOF AND BREATHABLE
This technology offers a double advantage: it combines the characteristics of the H2st0p waterproof membrane with the features of the dry foot system.
One of the most important characteristics for a professional shoe is a good thermoregulation capacity. Wearing for many hours a day shoes that promotes the exchange of air improves your working day.
Base Protection designs breathable shoes, thanks to the Dry'n Air insole, a system patented by its engineers to obtain air circulation inside the shoe. This thermoregulation system can be integrated in the sole (Platinum Line) or in the removable anatomic insole.
Dry'n Air technology improves the quality of perspiration and keeps the foot dry even after a great load of stress, a condition that increases sweating.
The Base Protection breathable safety shoes with Dry'n Air technology push the moisture generated by sweat out of the footwear, improving the internal microclimate and the well-being of the foot, which remains dry and cool even in the presence of high temperatures. The high performance of the Base Protection breathable shoes is combined with a modern design, making them pleasant to wear even outside working hours.
The fresh air enters the instep through the footbed
While walking, the heel’s pressure pushes the air ahead, catching the humidity
The humid and warm air is pushed up, dissipating the heat
The secret is a system of always-free ducts and holes, in an ergonomic footbed able to raise the foot above the sole edge and equally distribute the weight.
Lightness is a fundamental requirement for those who wear safety shoes for 8 hours a day. Often, however, safety shoes, even respecting the safety standards set by the regulations, are heavy and damp, causing discomfort to the foot. For this reason, Base Protection has designed the non-metallic SlimCap toe cap.
The weight of normal safety shoes can be up to 750 grams. Thanks to SlimCap and other technologies, Base Protection footwear can weigh up to 480 grams, while maintaining the safety parameters unchanged.
With SlimCap, the external dimensions of the Base Protection shoes are significantly reduced, with a 35% decrease in thickness compared to market standards. However, this reduction does not affect the performance of the safety shoes, which are guaranteed from -40 ° to 60 °.
The non-metallic SlimCap toe cap, only 6.5 mm thick, is not only smaller and lighter than those normally used, but it's also elastic, non-magnetic, and heat-insulating.
Lightness and comfort are also guaranteed by the protective band, which is perfectly adherent and shaped to the toe cap, avoiding the risk of detaching which causes pressure on the foot, and consequent pain to the toes.
Toe-cap's thickness is reduced to as low as 6.5 mm compared to other similar toe cap on the market: more room for toes.
Equipped with a protective strip and toe-cap shaped, it avoids the risk of accidental detachment and reduces the painful pressure on toes.
No pressure on toes and no pain.
One of the most important technologies applied to Base Protection shoes is SmellStop, a particular anti-odour lining that prevents the proliferation of microorganisms responsible for bad odours and fungi.
With SmellStop, Base Protection has made its safety shoes anti-odour and antibacterial*, ensuring maximum foot protection.
Thanks to the SmellStop permanent antibacterial* treatment, the risks of infections and fungi caused by sweat are drastically reduced, since the innovative lining recreates a healthy environment inside the shoe and a constant dry microclimate, ideal conditions to give well-being to the foot.
*Treatment made with biocide Zinc pyrithione (CAS-No.13463-41-7) product type PT 09 which counteracts the deposit of microorganisms on the surface of materials.
The advantage of Base Protection's SmellStop technology lies in the fact that the antibacterial* treatment does not have an expiration date but is effective for the entire lifespan of the safety shoes, carrying out a constant action.
Thanks to SmellStop, the Base Protection anti-odour safety shoes are comfortable and light even when worn for many hours a day.
The SmellStop lining keeps the foot dry, gently wrapping it with maximum wearability.
Scan&Fit is the new Base Protection technology that allows you to perform a three-dimensional scan of your feet using a revolutionary smartphone app, designed to choose your ideal safety shoe including the size you require and which insoles would be most beneficial.
The system is very simple. Simply place your foot on a white sheet of A4 size and take 3 pictures of each foot from 3 different angles: the centre, the outside and the inside.
The application uses a mathematical model based on a vast database of 3D scans and on innovative three-dimensional reconstruction algorithms, developed by the Instituto de Biomecánica (IBV).
The app crosses the volumetric and morphological information of the scans with all Base Protection footwear to help identify the models that, in terms of shape and size, guarantee your ideal fit giving you the best possible chance of an incredibly comfortable fit.
Once the shoe has been selected, to further customize the choice and deliver an extra level of comfort the app will also suggest the size and the Base Protection insole most suitable for the shape of your foot arch: normal, generally flat or generally hollow.
The insoles are specifically designed by Base Protection in collaboration with the Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute of Bologna. Thanks to the design of the Dry’n Air® insoles, you will experience optimal fit and comfort with a more uniform distribution of load forces leading to better balance and perfect stability control.
Adding the different insoles to the shoe keep the EU certification unchanged
