safety shoes

Started in 2009 as the brain child of our fearless leader. He saw a gap in the market for another serious supplier and distributor of well manufactured but affordably priced steel toe cap safety shoes and safety boots in South Africa. He began importing a core range of about 9 styles to suit specific industry needs. It quickly found homes with some of the most recognised construction, mining, agricultural and engineering firms in South Africa. In 2016, the range rapidly accelerated to 19 styles and a set of comfort adding accessories. Core focus on high efficiency and stock availability, firmly cemented ProFit as a niche brand offering all the bells and whistles for the entire industrial and agricultural sector. Today we have 33 styles available from Certified Distribution Partners in 9 countries across Southern Africa.

We have proudly sold 3 193 854 pairs of safety shoes to date!

Delivered a few hours after order and in full. Boots were polished immediately after being handed out to my staff, and they went straight to work in heavy rain in Cape Town. Thanks for the awesome service! Staff are very impressed with the boots. Very comfortable and look good!”

I’ve never been more excited to receive a pair of safety shoes in all my years having to wear PPE. These are the best looking, most comfortable pair of safety shoes I’ve ever worn. I’ve been dying to get a pair since I saw them advertised. They arrived yesterday and I’ve had more than 24 hours in them. I had totally forgotten they were on and only realised after going out for dinner last night that they were still on! My wife joked and asked if I would be sleeping in them? 😂 The PROFIT COMFIT insoles are incredible. I’ve actually decided to buy them for my entire staff. It’s very, very well priced for the quality. And money so well spent because I know I won’t have complaints, and they look like something from a fashion store. Thank you for changing my mind about safety footwear and making my work day so much more comfortable. You have a customer for life. Don’t ever discontinue this shoe.

 Shoes saved my toes!

In his own words, these boots were LEGENDARY in the snow, keeping him steady and protected as he worked through the harsh conditions. Check out the video here to see more.

Just a shout to Nick Bryant at ProFit Safety Footwear. Myself and my team are kitted out with these high-quality work boots. I have owned many many countless pairs of work boots and safety shoes, most of them worn out and sitting at the back of my cupboard waiting to be tossed out. They look a bit worn in this photo but I kid you not a quick buff and shoe shine I wear these formal-looking shoes to church on Sunday. Just last week I almost saw the ground face first from a 2nd story house with incredibly slippery roof tiles, planted my feet firmly flat and went nowhere. My staff and I wear them every day, on heavy-duty construction sites or on Mrs Jones’s sacred newly laid vinyl flooring. Won’t trust another work boot ever again!
