Choosing the right safety shoe begins with determining your exact shoe size. But many people are familiar with the problem: you have your feet measured, select a model in your determined size – and yet the shoe still doesn’t fit perfectly. It pinches, feels too tight, too loose, or doesn’t provide enough support.
In most cases, the issue lies not with your feet, but with the measuring method itself.
Traditional methods – such as measuring with a length bar on a board – can determine foot length but overlook crucial factors. In particular, foot width and the dynamic behaviour of the foot while walking are rarely taken into account.
STEITZ SECURA is therefore taking a deliberately different approach. Our proprietary measuring system uses specially designed measuring cups that realistically simulate the actual fit of a shoe. When the foot enters the measuring cup, it behaves exactly as it will later inside the shoe. This means:
The result: precise, practical foot measurement that goes far beyond the limitations of conventional methods.
At STEITZ SECURA, we don’t just offer a range of lengths for each model – we also offer four different widths:
S – Slim // NB – Normal width // XB – Extra wide // XXB – Extra extra wide
This variety ensures that the ideal fit can be found for every foot – whether slim, average or particularly wide. Especially when it comes to safety footwear, which is often worn for many hours at a time, the right fit can make a significant difference in comfort.
An ill-fitting shoe is not just uncomfortable – it can also:
• lead to pressure points or blisters,
• negatively affect posture,
• cause pain in the knees, back or hips,
• reduce concentration and performance during the working day.
That’s why STEITZ SECURA focuses on ergonomic solutions that make a tangible difference in everyday life – starting with the perfect fit.
Many of our customers are surprised to find they often need a smaller size than they’ve worn in the past. The reason? Accurate, practical measurement – with no compromises. Would you like to experience the measuring system for yourself?
