Safety has always been of the utmost importance to Nitti when designing their footwear ranges. Not only does Nitti meet international standards - they beat them by a considerable margin. Constant testing and continued technological development ensure Nitti stays ahead of the standards.
Upper & Outsole Bond Strength Test
The separation forces at the toe end and instep exceed the minimum requirements of 800N and 500N respectively.
Impact Resistance Test
The impact resistance of the steel toe cap is tested by a steel striker of mass 20kg±0.4kg adapted to fall freely on vertical guides from a predetermined height of 1000mm to give the required impact energy of 200J±4J.
Flexing Resistance of Outsole Test
The sole unit withstands more than the standard requirement of 30,000 cycles at a constant value between 125 cycles/min. and 150 cycles/min. with a bent angle of 90.
