Elten Safety Shoes

ELTEN is a renowned German brand specializing in high-quality safety and occupational footwear. Founded in 1910 by Johann Elten in Uedem, Germany, the company revolutionized the industry by introducing the first leather safety shoes, replacing the traditional wooden clogs of the era. The brand is strictly focused on personal protective equipment (PPE) for industrial and craft sectors.

Today, ELTEN remains a family-owned business, headquartered in the Lower Rhine region (Uedem). While they maintain a significant manufacturing presence in Germany to ensure high quality and innovation standards, production also extends to other European sites. The brand is known for its collaboration with orthopedic specialists and scientific institutes to enhance wearer comfort and foot health.
