FAQ

On an ox hide you find 5 levels of leather. The outside is named “box leather” and is used for the production of furniture. In the middle, you have 1 – 3 levels of split leather. SIKA uses split leather from level 1, just under the “box leather”, which is the best part of the hide for production of occupational footwear.

All footwear contains a 0.3mm Polyurethane coating that protects the upper leather from chemicals and repels water.

The upper leather is breathable even though the shoes have the 0.3mm coating, a difficult combination to find in footwear.

Open nails develop corrosion that diminishes the lifetime of the product. Therefore, SIKA Comfort Clogs have a longer lifetime than average.

SIKA Comfort Clogs without nails guarantee better hygiene for those in the food industry. It is very difficult or near impossible to clean clogs around open nails.

Cambrelle is a high sweat absorbing material that provides a perfect climate inside the footwear.

The extra insole in the back and in the middle aids in creating a perfect shock absorbing in the back of the shoes while offering fantastic arch support as it changes its shape according to the shape of your feet. These qualities are important components of SIKA’s goal to create occupational footwear with high comfort while being healthy at the same time.
