Our range of safety footwear is suitable for a wide variety of industries and working conditions. Employers, contractors, and individual workers rely on quality safety shoes and boots to protect their feet while meeting workplace safety expectations.

Safety shoes and boots are commonly used in:
• Construction and renovation sites
• Warehouses and logistics centres
• Factories and industrial plants
• Workshops and maintenance environments
• Engineering, marine, and technical work

By selecting the correct safety footwear, workers benefit from improved stability, reduced fatigue, and better overall protection throughout the workday.

Safety Shoes & Boots for Industrial and Site Use

Safety shoes and safety boots are designed for different working environments. Understanding their differences helps you choose the most suitable option for your job.
• Safety shoes are typically lower-cut and lighter, making them ideal for indoor work, warehouses, and factories where mobility and comfort are important.
• Safety boots offer higher coverage and ankle support, making them better suited for construction sites, outdoor work, and heavy-duty industrial environments.

Both options are designed with protective features such as reinforced toe caps, slip-resistant soles, and durable uppers. Choosing between safety shoes and boots depends on the level of protection required and the nature of the work environment.

MOM Approved Safety Shoes for Workplace Compliance

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) plays a pivotal role by mandating the use of appropriate safety shoes, particularly in high-risk occupations. MOM approved safety shoes are essential for workplaces in Singapore that must comply with Ministry of Manpower (MOM) safety regulations. These safety shoes meet recognised safety standards and are suitable for use in regulated environments where protective footwear is mandatory.


MOM-approved safety shoe standards draw from internationally recognized benchmarks, emphasizing the commitment to upholding the highest safety standards. To qualify as safety shoes, the shoes need to meet one of the following standards:
• Singapore standard SS513
• European standard ISO 20345
• American standard F2413
• Japanese standard JIS T8101
• Australian standard AS 2210.3

MOM approved safety shoes are commonly required for:
• Construction and industrial sites
• Contractor and subcontractor work
• Workplace safety audits and inspections
• Employer compliance with safety regulations

Using MOM approved safety shoes helps ensure workers are adequately protected while employers meet regulatory obligations. These shoes are designed for daily wear, combining safety compliance with comfort for long working hours.

Comfort, Fit & All-Day Wear

Comfort is a key factor when selecting safety shoes and boots, especially for workers who spend long hours on their feet. Poorly fitting footwear can lead to discomfort, fatigue, and reduced productivity.

Modern safety footwear is designed with features that enhance comfort, including:
• Cushioned insoles for shock absorption
• Ergonomic designs to support foot posture
• Breathable materials to reduce heat buildup
• Slip-resistant soles for stability

Choosing the correct size and fit ensures safety shoes and boots provide effective protection while remaining comfortable throughout the workday.

How to Choose the Right Safety Footwear

When selecting safety shoes or boots, consider the following:
• Work environment (indoor, outdoor, industrial, construction)
• Level of protection required
• Duration of daily wear
• Compliance requirements such as MOM approval

All safety shoes have slip-resistant features, and they can be further classified as steel-toe boots, composite safety shoes, or nanocarbon safety shoes depending on their properties. With no metal parts, composite safety shoes can be worn through metal detectors.

For warehouse and factory work, steel toe safety shoes may be sufficient. For construction and outdoor work, steel toe safety boots with ankle support are often recommended. MOM approved safety shoes are essential for regulated workplaces in Singapore.

At Horme Hardware, we carry the best lightweight safety shoes in Singapore. The Safety Jogger Lightweight Safety Shoes Series is made of nanocarbon material, making it the lightest safety shoe on the market.

ESD safety shoes conduct static electricity through the insole, linings, cement, outsole, and into the ground, helping regulate the buildup of electrical charge on a person’s body. Electrical hazard (EH)-rated safety shoes and boots are a must for anyone who works in environments where the potential for electrical shock or electrocution could be a high risk. HRO safety shoes have an outsole that can resist high temperatures up to 300 °C, making them a must for anyone who works in high-temperature environments.
