HOW TO GET THE
PERFECT FIT... EVERY TIME.

With Saf-Gard you don’t have to settle for uncomfortable safety shoes. Equipped with the right info, we can help you get an amazing pair that delivers all-day comfort.

HOW TO FIND THE ULTIMATE FIT

When it comes to finding work shoes that give you the perfect all-day wear experience, there are three main things to keep in mind.

1

Give your toes plenty of wiggle room. That means you should select a size that keeps your toes from bumping up against the end of your shoe.

2

Ensure that your heels stay snuggly in place. Sliding in and out of your shoes as you walk can lead to blisters and foot pain.

3

Shop for your foot width. Most people need a medium-width shoe, so if you’re not sure where to begin, start there and adjust your size accordingly.

The chart below will help; just remember that there’s about ⅕” difference between each width.

SHOE WIDTH MEN'S WOMEN'S
Extra Narrow A 4A / AAAA
Narrow B / N 2A / AA
Narrow Medium C  
Medium D / M / Reg B / M
