Solid Gear Vapor 3 Explore BOA Safety Work Shoe S3S SG80017
The third generation of this work shoe elevates the standard with premium materials and engineering designed for professionals who demand both performance and comfort on site. The upper combines nubuck leather with ripstop textile for durability in tough conditions, whilst the BOA Fit system delivers a locked-down fit that adjusts on the fly. Inside, recycled polyester mesh keeps feet breathing, and the ETPU midsole bounces back after long shifts with genuine energy return. A standout feature is the dual TPU shanks integrated into the sole, creating a level of torsional stability rarely seen in work footwear. The Vibram rubber outsole grips reliably on oil and grease, whilst the OrthoLite insole with recycled content provides rebound support tailored to the Solid Gear last. ESD protection keeps you safe in electrostatic environments.

Recommendations from our Unishore Expert
These work shoes suit professionals across transport and logistics, industrial service, construction, offshore operations and agricultural environments. The BOA closure tightens smoothly with one hand, saving time when you're in and out of gear. The wider fit accommodates thicker socks or orthotics without pinching, whilst the breathable lining keeps moisture at bay during active shifts. The rugged sole pattern grips confidently on wet or contaminated surfaces, and the protection meets strict safety standards for demanding work sectors. If you're handling materials in heat-prone areas, the heat-resistant sole handles contact temperatures up to 300°C for 60 seconds.
