Non slip chef shoes

Introduction

Imagine the sights and sounds of a busy restaurant or cafe kitchen – with chefs, cooks and kitchen hands moving about in this fast-paced environment. Within this ordered chaos there is always the potential for water and oil spills or food scraps to fall onto the floor, resulting in often unseen slippery spots.

This is when the importance of high-quality non-slip chef shoes with the ability to grip the floor surface is vital - especially when it is slippery due to drops or spills. Timing is everything, so chefs need the ability to move around confidently without worrying about sliding, slipping or even worse falling. Choosing chef shoes soles with slip-resistant technology is the way to go.

Chefs often spend 12 to 16 hours on their feet - so they must have comfortable, supportive, slip-resistant shoes. The same goes for the supporting kitchen, front-of-house & bar staff. Choosing the right type of chef shoe also ensures you are not wasting time and money on inappropriate footwear.

Aussie Chef Clothing Company understands how important it is to have the right chef shoes. Aussie Chef’s range of high-quality safety-first ‘wear all day’ chef shoes meet the requirements of busy chefs across the globe. And because proper chef shoes are such an important part of their everyday uniform, we keep ample stock in our warehouse, so that our customers can get a pair or two when needed. The Aussie Chef range of chef shoes is so popular, they literally ‘walk out the door’ every week!

Important Chef Shoe Features

Slip-Resistant

Anti-slip technology is the most important factor when choosing high-quality chef shoes. It allows the shoe to grip the floor surface - especially when it is slippery due to oil and water spills or food scraps, making it safer for chefs and support staff in the confines of a busy commercial kitchen. Anti-slip shoes have a unique honeycomb-like tread pattern that provides traction and safety, minimising the risk of slipping or sliding.

Waterproof Protection

High-quality chef shoes protect the wearer from oil, water food spills and the occasional kitchen object. Aussie Chef's shoe range is made in waterproof, protective EVA material to keep you safe.

Comfort & Support

Chefs require shoes that can meet the demands of being on your feet all day or night. Chef shoes need to be comfortable with good arch support and shock-absorption qualities. Choosing lightweight and supportive footwear will help keep you comfortable throughout your hectic work schedule.

Good insoles provide additional support and shock absorption, moulding to the shape of your foot. They also help prolong the life of the shoes.

Durable & Hard-Wearing

Chef Shoes are made in various materials - heavy-duty canvas, leather, waterproof mesh or innovative EVA material.

Aussie Chef’s 'wear all day' clogs are made in soft, durable, waterproof EVA material. They are designed to be slip-resistant, safe, durable, yet so very comfortable.

Slip-Ons vs Laces

Many Chefs prefer the ease of slip-on/slip-off chef clogs over shoes with laces for simple reasons - no laces mean no accidental tripping or needing to retie dirty laces at crucial moments. Chef clogs on the other hand are easily slipped on and off. Chef clogs are often made in a one-piece construction. Aussie Chef carries both fully enclosed and heel strap variations of chef clogs, that are easy to wear.

Easy Care

Chef shoes need to be easy to clean.  A chef’s or kitchen staff's uniform needs to look professional and clean from top to bottom. Aussie Chef clogs are easy to clean with a damp cloth and dry quickly, ready for the next wear.
