Product Information

This footwear, which may also be referred to as a minimalist, barefoot, or naturalist footwear, will position the ball of the foot and the heel at the same distance from the ground. This distance can measure as minimal as a single millimeter.

Large Toe Box. Zero drop footwear features ample room for toes to spread and support more of your body weight during movement. A zero drop or minimalist shoe is flexible and low to the ground providing a more natural gait of movement along with the feeling of walking or running barefoot.

Designed with a sporting sneaker appearance, this is a true full-fledged safety shoe. It features a steel toe as well as protection from electrical hazards up to 600V in dry conditions. A mesh lining improves breathability. Now that we’ve gotten some great examples of minimalist shoes, you might be asking yourself: why would anyone buy these style of boots? They seem radically different from normal workboots. The toe box is not a safety toe or reinforced, and the upper boot may be somewhat thinner when compared to other brands. For those who prefer a Zero Drop work boot, choices are still limited when compared to the rest of the footwear industry.

These safety boots are slip-resistant and resistant to electrical hazards. They rise to over the ankle for good protective coverage. Flexible, they offer a spacious toe box. Try sitting on your bed with only your feet hanging over the edge. Point your toes to the ceiling. Feel the pull in your calf muscles or in the heel of your foot? You’re probably not used to zero drop footwear. Zero Drop Boots With raised heels, body posture changes and this will have an effect on your skeleton, bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and so on.

The Zero Drop work boot will maintain an equal distance from the ground for both the heel and the ball of your foot. This type of work boot can be found with a steel toe or protective toe cap, although more difficult. Made in a combination of textile fabric and quality leather, soles are produced in nitrile rubber for added traction. Anti-static, oil-resistant, and slip-resistant, the soles afford you some extra grip. If you come down on the “love” side of the fence, you’ve probably discovered it’s hard to find a good pair of minimalist work boots. We’ve found that’s because most manufacturers don’t advertise these barefoot-like boots as “work-boots”. They’ll usually be in other – mostly larger – categories like hiking boots. However, the medical community is often in disagreement with the utility and benefits touted by fans of Zero Drop footwear. If you are being treated by a podiatrist for a foot condition or a medical caregiver, you should consult them before making any changes. What to Search for in a Zero Drop Work Boot A barefoot shoe like the one on the left is the goal. But depending on your work requirements, you many need to make some compromises. Shoe brands have yet to step up to the challenge of truly healthy minimalist work boots that are also safety rated (Want to change that?
