Safety footwear designed to help reduces fatigue

The sporty, high-performance, RedLion range incorporates a new sole using Infinergy which is made of expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (E-TPU), rather than PU. 

This insert springs back to its original shape immediately after impact, so helps to maintain energy for longer periods than a conventional shoe. The company says this helps reduce stress, pressure, fatigue, backache and other musculoskeletal disorders. The insert is said to return more than 55% of energy to the wearer and retains an elastic memory at temperatures from 40°C to -20°C. Durable, anti-abrasive, and chemical-resistant, it is suitable for all work conditions. 

RedLion features aluminium toe cap, polysoft footbed and composite mid-sole. 

Stuart Thorne, U-Power’s managing director, said: “Ultimately RedLion is about outstanding comfort, as its return of energy gives the wearer extra oxygen and vastly reduces weariness throughout the day. The RedLion range takes comfort and technology to another plane, making workplace fatigue a thing of the past.”
