GERMANY | adidas and GLO Brands have unveiled ADIDAS PRO WORK, a new safety footwear range, engineered to meet the evolving demands of workers across industries, including logistics, manufacturing, and transportation.
Today’s workforce increasingly expects safety footwear that goes beyond mere protection, seeking options that combine comfort, durability, and modern aesthetics.
ADIDAS PRO WORK has met this demand by bringing sports-inspired design and performance principles into professional environments.
“We’ve listened to the workers who already wear adidas outside of work, and we have delivered a comprehensive launch collection of certified safety footwear for them to bring the same style and individuality to the job site too,” said Lauren Mooney, General Manager of GLO.
ADIDAS PRO WORK has also recognised worker diversity in industries where PPE is required. The collection features two women’s models, designed for women’s foot shape, for a more supportive, precise fit.
The safety footwear has been designed for workers who operate in both controlled, predictable environments and on mixed surfaces with wet or dry conditions. The debut collection has integrated purpose-driven technologies for reliable comfort, protection, and performance throughout the workday.
At the centre of the design philosophy is 360-degree brand recognition. Signature adidas three-stripe detailing has been incorporated to ensure the footwear remains recognisable from every angle, whether climbing ladders, kneeling, or squatting.
The range is ESD‑certified and metal‑free, making the collection suitable for sensitive environments. Its lightweight construction, including a textile anti‑penetration insole, a fibreglass toecap, and an EVA cushioning midsole, can help reduce fatigue over long shifts.
Select models feature a Pressure Equaliser to cushion the midfoot and relieve pressure during prolonged kneeling or crouching.
ADIDAS PRO WORK safety footwear collection will be available as of August 2026 online and at selected retailers and distributors across European markets.
