The sole of a slip resistant shoe is softer than the sole of a normal shoe. This soft sole grips the microscopic roughness of a floor better than a normal shoe. Also, the tread is normally a grid, so that water, oil, etc. doesn't get stuck underneath the shoe, preventing traction.

What is the difference between steel toe and composite toe shoes?

The most notable difference is that composite toe shoes don't set off metal detectors and are generally lighter than steel toe shoes. A steel toe shoe has a piece of steel inside the tip (about 2 1/2 inches) to protect the toes from being crushed if a heavy object falls on the foot. A composite toe shoe has similar toe-protecting reinforcement that is made of a "composite" material like kevlar, carbon fiber, or plastic. Also, while composite shoes can be made as impact resistant (dropping things) they aren't as resistant to shear (chainsaws, grinders etc.) Most of the Composite toe caps are thicker than steel toe caps, only some very advanced composite toe caps are as thin as steel toe caps, but price is very high, so for most of the plastic toe cap safety shoes, the producing shoes lasts are different from the steel toe cap safety shoes lasts. Same standard Pplastic safety shoes price is higher than steel toe safety shoes price. For more info of safety shoes, please refer to our web: www.credsafetyshoes.com
