Explosionsschu
Explosionsschu is a term used in German-language safety discussions and in speculative design to denote a class of protective footwear intended to mitigate injuries from nearby explosions. The concept envisions boots or shoes that combine blast-resistant outer materials with energy-dissipating interiors to reduce the transmission of overpressure, resist fragment penetration, and limit thermal exposure to the foot and ankle.
Design and components: A typical Explosionsschu concept includes an outer shell of reinforced composite or ceramic-coated
Performance and status: Explosionsschu remains largely theoretical or speculative and is not a standardized product in
