SD and EH Are Not the Same Thing — and This Shoe Is SD
An electrical hazard (EH) shoe insulates you from a live circuit. A static dissipative (SD) shoe does the opposite: it conducts static charge off your body and into the floor at a controlled rate. The CA5595 is SD. Do not treat it as EH protection.
Why a Romeo
A Romeo is a laceless ankle shoe with elastic gore panels at the sides. There's nothing to catch, nothing to tie, and you're in and out of it in seconds — which is why they're standard on warehouse floors, in plants with clean-room transitions, and anywhere you're on and off a forklift all day.
Why Choose the CA5595?
Safety-toe protection and a static dissipative rating in a shoe you can kick off at the door — for light-duty work that still has an ASTM requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the CA5595 true to size?
Carolina generally runs true to size — order the size you wear in sneakers. Carolina offers this shoe in D and 2E; on a laceless Romeo, width matters more than usual, since there are no laces to take up slack.
What is an SD shoe for?
Environments where a static discharge is the hazard: electronics manufacturing and repair, cleanrooms, powder handling, fuel and solvent work. The shoe bleeds off the charge your body builds up walking across a floor.
What widths does the CA5595 come in?
It comes in Medium and Wide, in men's sizes 8 through 14.
Is the CA5595 EH rated?
It isn't. It's static dissipative (SD), which carries static charge to the floor, so choose an EH-rated shoe if your workplace requires EH.
Does the CA5595 have a safety toe?
Yes. A composite safety toe cap meets ASTM F2413 for impact (I/75) and compression (C/75).
What footbed does the CA5595 use?
A removable Triple Tuff™ polyurethane footbed over an EVA midsole; it comes out if you wear orthotics.
