Steel Blue 311400 Adelaide – Composite Toe Lace-Up Safety Shoe (Black)
If you’re after a lightweight, metal-free work shoe that still packs a punch when it comes to protection and comfort, the Steel Blue Adelaide is a top pick. Designed with everyday tradies, warehouse legends, courier drivers, and stadium crews in mind, this sporty lace-up safety shoe delivers all the durability you’d expect from Steel Blue — without the bulk of a boot.
Made tough to handle long shifts on your feet, the Adelaide combines a 200-joule composite toe cap, a TPU outsole, and Steel Blue’s legendary Trisole® Comfort Technology to give you the perfect blend of protection, flexibility, and all-day comfort. Whether you’re hauling boxes, loading vans, or darting through the warehouse, this pair’s got your back (and your feet).
Lightweight Composite Toe Protection
The Adelaide features a 200-joule safety composite toe cap — providing solid protection against impact and compression without the weight of steel. Being non-metallic and electrically non-conductive, it’s ideal for workers who need toe protection in environments where metal detection or conductivity could be an issue. It’s tough as nails but light as a feather, keeping your feet protected and fatigue-free.
Airport-Friendly Design
One of the biggest drawcards of the Adelaide is that it’s 100% airport friendly. That means you can move through security checkpoints without setting off alarms — perfect for anyone working in airports, stadiums, or logistics hubs where screening is part of the job. No more awkward pat-downs or having to take off your boots every five minutes.
Durable TPU Outsole
Underneath, you’ll find a Thermoplastic Urethane (TPU) outsole that’s built for the long haul. It’s tough, flexible, and resistant to abrasion, oil, and most common workplace chemicals. The outsole is also heat resistant up to 130°C, making it ideal for hot warehouse floors, factory sites, and even asphalt work. With anti-static properties built in, it also helps discharge static electricity safely through the sole — keeping you protected when working around sensitive electronic equipment.
Classic Lace-Up Fit
The lace-up design gives you a snug, custom fit so your foot stays secure and supported all day. Whether you prefer it tight or relaxed, the laces let you adjust it just how you like. Plus, the sports-inspired silhouette gives the Adelaide a sleek, modern look that transitions easily between work and casual wear — you’ll feel just as comfortable in these heading to smoko as you do on the job.
Trisole® Comfort Technology
Like every pair of Steel Blues, the Adelaide features Trisole® Comfort Technology — a patented system that supports and cushions your feet, knees, hips, and lower back. The triple-density sole structure provides maximum shock absorption, reducing fatigue and soreness even after long hours on your feet. It’s comfort you can count on — tested and trusted by Aussie tradies for decades.
Built for Aussie Conditions
Steel Blue has built its reputation on quality, and the Adelaide is no exception. Made with premium materials and tested to Australian safety standards, these shoes are designed to take on the toughest conditions while keeping you light, cool, and comfortable. Whether you’re indoors on concrete or outdoors on the tarmac, this shoe is made to perform.
