The new Kapriol 2026 footwear range redesigns safety for every work environment
8 ottobre 2026
Every professional knows it well: the day is measured in steps and true safety begins with footwear. For the 2026 season, Kapriol offers a completely renewed range of safety shoes and boots, certified according to the latest EN ISO 20345:2022+A1:2024 standard to ensure superior levels of resistance, grip, and reliability. From workshop to precision manufacturing, from the most demanding operational contexts to outdoor activities in extreme conditions, the new collection has been designed to offer the ideal answer to the needs of every professional sector.
For those working on construction sites, in building work, or in demanding industrial contexts, the Heavy work category offers maximum mechanical resistance, stability, and protection against atmospheric agents. Among the flagship models, the Saturn series stands out, equipped with an ankle stabilizer insert and heat-resistant contact PU and rubber sole (HRO): it is available in the Saturn Smesh S3S FO HRO SR with breathable upper in Strong Mesh, in the Saturn Green S3S FO HRO SR in sturdy Nabuk, and in the waterproof ankle boot Saturn Brown S7S FO CI HRO SR, equipped with a waterproof upper (WR) and cold insulation (CI) to operate outdoors in the most extreme conditions.
To complete the range for uneven terrain and heavy-duty applications, several dedicated models are featured. Among these, Dune Stone stands out, alongside the Oregon S3S FO CI SR bootie in oiled Nabuk, which eliminates laces in favor of practical elastic ankle bands. Added to this is the versatile Storm line, available in both low-cut S1PS FO SR and high-cut S3S FO SR versions, featuring quick lacing and a padded collar. Finally, the Kansas S3 FO SR series includes both the classic variant in suede leather and the Nabuk variant: both are equipped with a steel toecap, stainless steel anti-perforation plate, and rubber toe reinforcement against abrasions.
When work activities instead require dynamism, flexibility, prolonged comfort, and advanced antistatic protection in warehouses, precision workshops, or laboratories, the Light Work line comes into play. Headed by the Derby S3S FO SR ESD series, this range stands out for its lightweight design and certification for electrostatic charge dissipation (ESD), essential for those working in contact with electronic components and machinery. The line is expressed in the fine full-grain leather variant for a formal and professional look, and in the Derby Mesh model, which combines breathable mesh and suede leather to ensure maximum ventilation in warmer seasons or indoor environments.
Choosing the ideal footwear means enhancing your daily work, combining the certainty of certified protection with the well-being of a fit engineered down to the finest detail. From the climatic challenges and rough terrain of construction sites to the formal rigor and precision of high-tech laboratories, the new Kapriol 2026 collection responds with tailor-made solutions for every profession.
An evolution that synthesizes research into materials, ergonomics, and design, proving once again that true innovation is not limited to protecting the foot, but tangibly improves the quality of daily working life, step by step.
