Thinning Sole<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The sole of the shoe is the part that has the most direct contact with the work surface, so wear on the sole is the first sign to look out for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the soles are already looking thin or starting to lose their texture, this can cause the shoes to become slippery and reduce grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Worn soles are no longer able to provide maximum protection against sharp objects or slippery surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Expired_Sole\"><\/span>2. Expired Sole<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, your safety shoe does have an expiration date. The safety with PU soles generally can be stored for a maximum of 2 years before expiring when not in use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After those dates are overdue, the sole will disintegrate by itself. Thus, it is recommended that you check the production code at the time of purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Broken_Protective_Components\"><\/span>3. Broken Protective Components<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Safety shoes are usually equipped with protective components such as toe caps and midsole protectors that are designed to protect the feet from impacts and punctures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If one of these components is damaged or cracked, the shoe will no longer be able to provide standard protection. Usually, the cracks are formed if your shoe is impacted by a heavy object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Damage to these protective components is an indication that safety shoes need to be replaced immediately to maintain work safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Also Read: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/how-to-choose-the-right-safety-shoes\/\">How to Choose the Right Safety Shoes?<\/a>&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Leaky_Shoe\"><\/span>4.
