As part of this partnership, GLO leverages Bunzl’s global supply chain and responsible sourcing standards to ensure quality and compliance across every pair of safety shoes produced.

The first adidas pro work models are expected to launch in Q2 2026, available through select distribution partners and professional safety channels worldwide.
