The search for the perfect protective shoe

We have been shoemakers since 1839, and even today we go to work every day to protect hard-working feet.

Our design philosophy is simple: your feet should never be left to chance or underestimated. That is why we develop our safety shoes and professional footwear in close collaboration with end users, focusing on quality, safety and function.

Arbesko develops protective and work shoes of the highest quality, designed for comfort and safety in demanding environments. With roots in Swedish craftsmanship and innovation, they create sustainable shoes that last — every working day.

To the collection

‍När vi utvecklar våra skor förenar vi traditionellt skomakeri med kunskap om kroppens naturliga rörelser – allt för att skapa skydd som fungerar i verkligheten. I vår egen fabrik i Kumla utvecklar, testar och tillverkar vi varje sko. Det ger oss full kontroll – och möjlighet att kvalitetssäkra varje modell innan den når marknaden.

Timeless strength

“Arbeskos' design language is based on clean lines and honest expressions. Its strength lies in its simplicity. When design is authentic and timeless, it stands the test of time.”

— Denis Vilenica, Industrydesigner, Arbesko

Anatomy of a good safety shoe

A really good safety shoe starts on the inside. Every part has a job to do – from relieving pressure on the cushioned insoleto maintaining the fit year after year. Together, they create stability, comfort and protection during long working days.
