The new safety footwear regulations went into force in 2022. The EN ISO 20345:2011 standards were updated in a variety of areas, including testing procedures, safety codes, and classifications.
Since then, the two standards have coexisted, which is why it's possible that you've seen and even tried on safety footwear that has been tested for both versions. Later in the year, though, things will change.
On November 11, 2024, the EN ISO 20345:2011 safety footwear requirements will be superseded by the updated EN ISO 20345:2022 version. However, this does not imply that goods that have been tested in accordance with the 2011 standards will soon lose their validity.
