Stylish safety shoes & work apparel for women in demanding industries. Workwear without compromise. Fashion that works.
About us
"My name is Ana Kraft and I founded Xena Workwear. My inspiration came from an immense frustration. Working as an Engineering project manager, I was required to wear steel-toe boots. The lack of professional footwear options for women like myself was demoralizing. So I designed my own safety shoes to help women feel confident at work. Xenas don't compromise. They safely transition between the facility floor, job site, office, and beyond. We're proud to call Detroit and Milwaukee our home. Located in the beautiful Great Lakes region, these manufacturing hubs embrace the spirit of hard-work, innovation, entrepreneurship, and friendly hospitality. Say hi by sending us a note!" -Ana Kraft | Founder & CEO

After college, I worked in factories and distribution centers for many years. I could NEVER find safety shoes that were cute, professional, and actually fit. The options for a women’s size 5 are…..limited. I made do and had some pretty clunky ones over the years. It was pretty frustrating. I became an indoor cat and took a corporate job. So I traded in the steel toes for heels and largely forgot about it. When I took my new job with Dealer Tire this year, I found myself visiting distribution centers and I was SO excited to find Xena Workwear - steel-toe safety shoes designed for women!! I couldn’t wait to order a pair. They fit! They’re comfortable! And they look GOOD. I may have to take them off at TSA, but I can travel in them and go straight to the distribution center from the airport. I love to see Fortune 500 companies offering these shoes in their company stores, too. I bet they’re flying off the shelves. Once again: representation matters.

Our Horizon Safety Boots made their runway debut at the Reinvented STEM fashion show last weekend! Our boots, embellished with "Mars dirt," were a standout element in the incredible look designed by the talented Dora Strelko. One of our amazing Xena ambassadors, Susan Martínez, brought our boots to life with her captivating runway presence. She wore a space suit that transformed into a beautiful Mars-red dress, perfectly embodying the spirit of a bold explorer just back from the Red Planet. We are incredibly excited to support Reinvented Magazine, a nonprofit organization that aspires to break barriers and encourage more girls to pursue their interests in STEM. They are the creators of the nation's first print magazine for women in STEM, continually striving to change perceptions and inspire young women worldwide.
