EN ISO 20345 Certified Safety Footwear
The Akron is a performance work trainer with hiker-inspired support: breathable industrial nylon and synthetic Nubuck over heat-bonded toe guards, on a dual-density low-profile outsole that is slip resistant and non-marking, so it can go on protected floors. S3S rated, and made in a genuine women's fit as well as the men's.
Full EN ISO 20345:2022 S3S protection at trainer weight.
Slip-resistant, non-marking outsole suitable for protected surfaces.
A dedicated women's last in UK 3 to 8, not a downsized men's shoe.
Free UK delivery on orders over £75.
Most safety trainers trade support for weight. The Akron keeps the hiker-style support structure and sheds the bulk instead, with a breathable nylon upper and heat-bonded toe guards where trainers usually scuff through first. The non-marking sole is the detail facilities and food-adjacent sites ask about.
If you want the same build at boot height, look at the Toledo or Rapid. The full range, men's and women's, is on the Bobcat brand page. Our size and fit guide covers sizing.
