Footwear Accessories

Footwear Accessories keep chefs and kitchen staff safer and more comfortable through long shifts on their feet. This range includes comfort insoles, slip-resistant shoe laces, overshoe covers and work socks designed for professional use. Ideal for restaurants, hotels, cafes and catering operations, these accessories help reduce fatigue and improve stability on busy, slippery floors. Durable materials and practical designs support hygiene, safety and all-day comfort in demanding hospitality environments.

• Comfort insoles in multiple sizes to improve cushioning, arch support and weight distribution in chef shoes and trainers.
• Slip-resistant shoe laces that stay securely tied, helping to maintain a snug fit and reduce the risk of trips in fast-paced kitchens.
• Disposable overshoe covers for added hygiene when moving between kitchen, storage and front-of-house areas.
• Cotton work and tennis socks from leading brands, designed for breathability and comfort during long shifts.
• Specialist trainers with modular insoles for staff who need enhanced support and slip resistance in high-traffic areas.

How to choose the right Footwear Accessories

• Match insoles and trainers to the wearer’s shoe size to ensure proper support, comfort and a secure fit throughout service.
• Consider the level of slip resistance required for your kitchen floors and choose laces and footwear designed for wet or greasy conditions.
• Select socks with breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics to keep feet dry and comfortable during long shifts in hot kitchens.
• Decide how often overshoe covers will be used and choose pack sizes that suit your hygiene procedures and staff numbers.
• For busy restaurants, hotels and production kitchens, prioritise accessories with proven ergonomic design to reduce fatigue and strain.

Care and maintenance

• Replace comfort insoles regularly, especially when cushioning becomes compressed or shows visible wear.
• Wash socks at the temperatures recommended by the manufacturer to maintain hygiene and fabric performance.
• Inspect shoe laces frequently for fraying or stretching and replace them promptly to keep footwear secure.
• Store overshoe covers in a clean, dry area and dispose of used covers immediately after service to maintain hygiene standards.
• Allow footwear and insoles to dry fully between shifts to reduce odours and extend the life of your accessories.
