Sixton Peak® introduces Anversa, the safety shoe with the exclusive D3O® metatarsal protection

The established Resolute line is constantly evolving to give comfort and well-being to workers engaged in the most difficult environments

Sixton Peak® research continues to make important inroads in the field of work shoes. An excellent example in this regard is the Anversa model, designed, made and tested, together with the performance that has long made Resolute footwear famous, to also guarantee users the maximum ease of foot flexion and the most effective protection of the metatarsal area.

Yes to freedom of movement, no to injuries

The metatarsal refers generically to the five bones which, starting from the tarsus, join with the phalanges of the five toes. In short, we are talking about the instep, an anatomical part that is certainly very robust but also very exposed to dangers such as small fractures due to excessive bending or more significant fractures resulting from falling objects. And it is precisely in this sense that Anversa, thanks to the D3O® insert at its disposal, offers an answer that is equal to the problem. Positioned inside the tongue of the shoe, the D3O® "shield" supports the most comfortable flexibility of the foot and, at the same time, ensures the most valid defence against impacts in compliance with the additional requirement "M" (EN ISO 20345: 2022).

A simple but extremely effective protection

How does the D3O® metatarsal protection work?

• • Specifically designed and shaped to protect the instep, the metatarsal protection is a D3O® insert capable of offering extreme impact resistance
• • Like an invisible shell that is light and comfortable to wear, the metatarsal protection maintains its ergonomic shape for a long time
• • Characterized by excellent flexibility, the metatarsal protection is conducive to natural movements of the foot

Anversa, all the advantages of a real Resolute

Beautiful to look at with its refined Italian style design, Anversa offers not only metatarsal protection but also the extraordinary performances that have brought the Resolute collection to the attention of the international market. We are talking about Resolute System Technology, a set of cutting-edge solutions created in collaboration with the English partner D3O® and tested at the Department of Industrial Engineering of the University of Padua as well as in the Sixton Peak® R&D laboratory. The characteristics that mark out the Resolute make them excellent work shoes, ideal for the construction and metalworking sectors:

• • the insert with patented D3O® material makes Resolute the most Smart Cushioning safety footwear thanks to its ability to dissipate energy during walking, reducing peak loads on the heel with an absorption of 300 Newtons and avoiding overloading the lower limbs and spinal column
• • Dynamic HC Control is a rigid internal ergonomic structure that accommodates the heel, regulates the support of the foot, controls the lateral movements of the ankle and holds the shoe on the foot avoiding the annoying heel slip effect
• • Stabil Active is a support made of rigid plastic material which, when inserted into the sole between the heel and the waist, ensures greater stability and gives support to the foot arch, thus improving the posture of the foot

The cosiest, most stable, most long-lasting protection

These are the main reasons why Anversa represents, together with the other Resolute models, an obligatory choice for those who want to work not only in safety but also in complete well-being.

And the qualities of these extraordinary shoes don't stop here:

• • Hydro full-grain leather upper with Reflex insert
• • 3D Green Air lining (recycled material)
• • QRS02 green insole in recycled material, breathable, resistant, interchangeable
• • TPU reinforced composite Fiber cap SXT toe cap
• • PS method puncture resistance to 3 mm nail over the entire foot
• • PU-Rubber Vibram Ecostep Pro-Hro-Sr sole with integrated toe-cap, resistant to 300° for contact with acids and oils

Advanced technologies, selected materials, all the advantages of the Resolute System Technology and the special protection for the metatarsal. Just so, solid, comfortable and long-lasting, the Anversa by Sixton Peak® establish themselves as a point of reference in the field of high-level safety footwear.
