Vital X safety trainers from VTech
incorporate an air pump
footbed which
exhales air
around the foot
with each step.

The air bag heel
and metal-free
technology
protect the foot
from harm, along with a fibreglass
toe cap and ballistic nylon underfoot
protection.

The brightly coloured two-tone
soles are made from a special rubber
compound that passes anti-slip
tests. According to the company,
the initial launch to
the
construction
industry was
so well received
that extra quantities of stock
had to be flown in to meet demand.
