Posted By David Whaley Bob, We had a problem with a lady who had, shall we say strange feet, who needed to use her own footwear. We provided her with overshoes to provide the level of slip resistance required for the work area. They work quite well. However, they do stretch and need replacing more often than normal safety shoes. If you need more info on make please feel free to email me direct. David

Posted By Ron Hunter "Shoes for Crews" are now doing an overshoe with the same sole pattern as their footwear range. This I believe came "top" in the HSL performance tests and have been favourably received by our staff (and they perform very well in slips prevention!). There are problems in sourcing smaller sizes though.
