Engelbert Strauss footwear

Engelbert Strauss is a renowned German brand specializing in high-quality workwear, safety footwear, and personal protective equipment. The company's history dates back to 1948 when it was founded by Engelbert Strauss in Biebergemünd, Germany, originally starting as a business for brooms and brushes before expanding into protective apparel.

Today, the brand remains a family-owned enterprise, managed by the third and fourth generations of the Strauss family. While the company maintains its design headquarters and specialized high-tech 'CI Factory' production facilities in Germany, the vast majority of its mass-market products are manufactured across a global network of partners. This includes production in 28 countries worldwide, with a significant manufacturing presence in Southeast Asia (notably Bangladesh and Vietnam) to support its international scale.
