On this exciting chapter, we had the privilege of engaging in a conversation with Mr. Tobias Borg, the Market Manager at Mattsson Metal, located in the picturesque city of Mora, Sweden. Situated in Dalarna, a region renowned for its rich cultural heritage, Mora stands as a small yet remarkable city. Within its embrace, Mattsson Metal has emerged as a distinguished sub-contract manufacturer, specializing in the production of top-quality hot-pressed metal parts throughout northern Europe.

Mora is perhaps best known for Vasaloppet (the world’s oldest long-distance cross-country ski race), and Dalahästen (The Dala Horse).

Versatile Protection and Style

Tobias tells us that the versatility of the JALAS 2108 safety shoes allows him to seamlessly transition between different work areas without needing to change footwear. "Whether I'm attending a boardroom meeting, working in my office, or going down to the factory floor, I can rely on these shoes to provide the necessary protection without compromising on style or comfort," he says..

The JALAS 2108 safety shoes are equipped with a toe cap, which provides protection against impacts and compression in case of accidental falls or heavy objects being dropped. This feature ensures Tobias' toes are safeguarded from potential injuries on the factory floor.Additionally, these shoes also offer nail penetration protection. This means that sharp objects, such as nails or other pointed materials, are less likely to penetrate through the sole of the shoe and injure Tobias' feet. This feature is particularly important in environments where there may be sharp objects or debris on the floor.

Over the years, I have used several models from Ejendal's JALAS VIP Collection. Works just as well in the boardroom as in production. The shoes are very comfortable for the feet and does not feel heavy despite the toe cap. They are so nice and look dressed up, so I also use them privately.
