uvex 3 x-flow zip now has an expanded range of extra wide fittings to ensure workers can get the best fit for both length and width. In addition to the standard fitting across the full-size range the uvex 3 x-flow zip is also available in extra wide fittings widths extending from EU 41/UK 7 – EU 48/UK 13. The uvex multiplefit system allows the worker to fit their footwear for length and width improving workers health and wellbeing.
Over two-thirds of Australian workers wear work boots or safety footwear that is one or two sizes too big to get the required footwear width. Wearing footwear that is too long creates a number of hazards including increasing trip risks, increased blister risks and reduced protection from toecap. Wearing footwear that is too long results in a misalignment of the key flex point of the foot and the footwear impairing walking efficiency and increasing workers leg fatigue. The uvex multiplefit system addresses these critical footwear fitting issues to improve workers foot health and wellbeing.
To ensure the best fit workers should measure the length and circumference of each foot at the end of the day wearing their typical work socks. Foot measurements can be done with a tape measure and the longest and widest foot compared to the corresponding uvex multiplefit size table. The uvex fit advisor fitting app uses three calibrated images of the foot to recommend correct work boot size and width. Additionally, the uvex fit advisor app uses advanced scientific algorithm to recommend a uvex tuneup 2.0 insole specific to the workers foot type to customise the fit.
