High-rebound safety shoe

High Rebound Elastopan, a new material from BASF, is used in the PU intersole of the Red-Up and is said to ensure a return of over 40% of energy to the wearer over the entire surface of the foot.

Energy is regenerated and given back to the wearer to ensure better performance over time. The high-rebound RedUp is extremely flexible and lightweight, reducing fatigue and helping improve both posture and productivity. 

Suited to industrial areas, the RedUp shoe comes as ESD, and features Elastopan memory foam insoles, which take the shape of the foot, improve weight distribution, and relieve pressure points, as standard.

Three styles also feature Hypertex Putek technology, a breathable and water-repellent material that is said to be 20 times more abrasion-resistant than traditional materials. 

The Red-Up range of 25 different styles comprises safety features such as excellent shock absorption, aluminium safety toe cap and a non-metal pierce-resistant midsole. In addition, the Red-Up’s slip-resistance exceeds the requirements of the European Standards.  

U-Power’s managing director, Stuart Thorne, says: “The blend of softness, comfort, lightness, breathability and protection of the Red-Up shoe, plus the return of so much energy to the wearer, ensures a feeling of total wellbeing. Tiredness and fatigue are diminished, posture is improved, and productivity in the workplace boosted.”
