■About the “Japan Athletics” series
PUMA SAFETY’s “Japan Athletic” is the brand’s first lightweight model, and is a Japan original series developed to suit the Japanese working environment and the shape of Japanese feet. In addition to its sporty design, it is comfortable to wear on high-instep, wide feet, and is favored in many workplaces.
Among the series, the “RIDER” is a long-selling model representing the series, which is highly regarded for its light and toned design.
The RIDER 2.1 is equipped with an anti-static function while maintaining the basic performance of the previous model RIDER 2.0. It adds even more peace of mind and comfort to the work scene.
It complies with the “JSAA Standard Type A Pro Sneakers (R)”*, and the synthetic resin toe core reinforced with fiberglass protects the toe well. In addition, it has “anti-static properties” and “shock energy absorption” in the heel area as additional performances, making it safer and more comfortable to use.
The rubber outsole boasts high grip, combining heat resistance of up to 300°C (60 seconds) with oil resistance with low oil deformation. The insole has an arch support design that holds the arch of the foot, providing excellent stability and natural movement.
The “RIDER 2.1” is a low-cut hook-and-loop type that is easy to put on and take off, has a high hold, and provides a stable walk. It is available in black and a wide range of sizes from 23.0cm~30.0cm, so you can choose the pair that fits best for both men and women.
