9、ds Committee following requests from retailers and consumers. It is hoped that manufacturers and components suppliers will follow this standard so that consumers can be informed easily of the necessary facts to be considered when selecting footwear. Many of the requirements included in this standard
10、 are based on those in the “Voluntary Code of Practice for Footwear” prepared by the Footwear Distributors Federation in consultation with the Office of Fair Trading. This revision supersedes BS5833:1980, which is withdrawn. In4.4 of BS5833:1980, reference was made to “leather” as defined in BS2780.
11、 In1983 a revision of BS2780 was published which incorporated new terms which were relevant to the labelling of footwear, in particular the terms “laminated leather” and “coated leather”. This revision has been prepared taking account of the revision of BS2780 and, in addition, noting the experience
12、s gained in using BS5833:1980 and the requests of consumers. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from
13、 legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1to8, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment tab
14、le on the inside front cover.BS5833:1988 BSI 08-1999 1 1 Scope This British Standard specifies a scheme for the labelling of footwear, including size, brand name or other means of identification, and those parts of the footwear for which the material is to be stated, and the terms to be used. Detail
15、s of a classification of footwear related to intended use are given in Table 1. NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the following definitions apply, the definitions given in2.2, 2
16、.3 and2.4 being identical to the definitions given in entries,159,56 and156 ofBS2780:1983, respectively. NOTEIn footwear, the polymers defined in2.6, 2.7 and2.8 are used in a compounded form incorporating colouring materials, stabilizers, and frequently fillers and external plasticizers. 2.1 sole th
17、at part of the forepart bottom of the shoe which is attached to the upper part of the shoe, as a separate component or composite, the bottom surface of which is subjected to abrasive wear 2.2 leather hide or skin with its original fibrous structure more or less intact, tanned to be imputrescible. Th
18、e hair or wool may or may not have been removed. It is also made from a hide or skin that has been split into layers or segmented either before or after tanning NOTE 1If the leather has a surface coating, the mean thickness of this surface layer, however applied, has to be0.15mm or less. NOTE 2If th
19、e tanned hide or skin is disintegrated mechanically and/or chemically into fibrous particles, small pieces or powders and then, with or without the combination of a binding agent, is made into sheets or forms, such sheets or forms are not leather. 2.3 coated leather a product where the surface coati
20、ng applied to the leather substrate does not exceed one-third of the total thickness of the product, but is in excess of0.15mm NOTEIf the surface appearance is shiny, the term “patent coated leather” is permissible. 2.4 laminated leather a) A composite of two or more layers of leather. b) A composit
21、e of a layer of leather and one or more layers of another sheet or film of plastics or other material. NOTEThe term is applied to products that are excluded from the definitions of leather(2.2) and coated leather(2.3). The components should be identified according to the proportion they form of the
22、total thickness,e.g. leather/polyurethane laminate if the leather component exceeds50%. 2.5 man-made a material which contains a substantial amount of synthetic or modified natural polymer 2.6 ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate which contains between5% and50% by m
23、ass of structural units of vinyl acetate, i.e. CH 2 CHCOO, incorporated in a polyethylene chain 2.7 polyurethane (PU) a polymer in which the recurring structural unit in the chain is of the urethane type, i.e. OCONH 2.8 polyvinyl chloride (PVC) a polymer of vinyl chloride having in the chain the rec
24、urring structural unit CH 2 CHCl 2.9 resin rubber a compounded material based on natural rubber and/or copolymer of styrene and butadiene, which is reinforced with a high styrene content copolymer of styrene and butadiene 2.10 rubber an elastic material derived from latex from living plants, and/or
25、from synthetic polymers 2.11 textile originally a woven fabric but the term is now applied to fibres, filaments, or yarns, natural or man-made, and products made from them NOTE 1For example, threads, cords, ropes, braids, lace, embroidery, nets, and fabrics made by weaving, knitting, felting, bondin
26、g, and tufting are textiles. NOTE 2Where textile materials are concerned, attention is drawn to the relevant provision of the Trade Descriptions The Textile Products (Indication of Fibre Content) Regulations,1986 (S.I.1986, No.26).BS5833:1988 2 BSI 08-1999 3 Information to be made available at the t
27、ime of sale 3.1 Size The shoe size and, where available, the width fitting shall be clearly marked on the footwear by the methods specified in4.1, and if this size is not in the English system the English size shall be made available. NOTEIf the Mondopoint system of shoe size labelling is adopted in
28、 accordance with BS4981, this size should also be made available. 3.2 Brand name The brand name, or other means of identification, shall be clearly marked on the footwear by the methods specified in4.1. The brand name shall be traceable to a UK source. NOTE 1Traceability may be achieved by, for exam
29、ple, a UK registered trademark. NOTE 2The attention of manufacturers is drawn to UK legislation on marking the country of origin on goods, current at the time of publication of this standard. 3.3 Materials of manufacture 3.3.1 Materials of the upper. The material of manufacture, or the two principal
30、 materials of the upper, shall be indicated using the terms in3.3.3 by one of the methods specified in4.2. Where the upper and the lining are made from materials of the same generic type, then the material shall be indicated without making a distinction between the outer upper and lining. The approp
31、riate label shall take the form: “leather upper” where “coated leather”, or “laminated leather”, or “man-made”, or “rubber”, or “textile” can be substituted for “leather”. If the upper and the lining are made from a variety of materials, the appropriate label shall indicate the two principal materia
32、ls of each, in decreasing order of predominance, based on the surface area of the materials in question (e.g. “leather/man-made upper, coated leather/leather lining”). If the upper and the lining are of different materials but each is made from one type of material exclusively, then the materials sh
33、all be labelled separately (e.g.“leather upper, man-made lining; man-made upper, leather lining”). If the upper is of one generic type and the lining is of a variety of materials, then the label shall indicate the material of the upper and the two principal materials of the lining in decreasing orde
34、r of predominance (e.g.“coated leather upper, leather/man-made lining”). If the upper is of several materials and the lining is of one generic type then the label shall indicate the two principal materials of the upper in decreasing order of predominance and the material of the lining (e.g.“man-made
35、/leather upper, man-made lining”). The materials used for trimmings need not be indicated: a) where they are purely decorative, or b) where their total surface area is less than15% of the total area of the upper. 3.3.2 Materials of the sole. The material of manufacture, or the two principal material
36、s of the sole, based on thickness, determined on samples in accordance with the method inAppendix A, shall be indicated in decreasing order, using the terms in3.3.3, by one of the methods specified in4.2. NOTEThe terms “ethylene-vinyl acetate” or “EVA” (see2.6), “polyurethane” or “PU” (see2.7), “pol
37、yvinyl chloride” or “PVC” (see2.8) and “resin rubber” (see2.9) used in relation to soles may be used singly or in combination in place of the generic term “man-made” (see2.5). 3.3.3 Terms used for labelling. The following generic terms for materials of manufacture shall be used in labelling of footw
38、ear, either singly or severally in accordance with3.3.1 and3.3.2: a) leather, or b) coated leather, or c) laminated leather, or d) man-made, or e) rubber, or f) textile. NOTEAdditional terms may be used in conjunction with these generic terms. Provision is made in3.3.2 for certain soiling materials
39、to be included on the label in place of the generic term “man-made”. 3.4 Suitable use A guide to the classification of footwear according to its intended use is given inTable 1. Retailers wishing to use this classification system shall display the information given in columns1 and2 of this table at
40、the point of sale. 3.5 Cleaning and care If footwear requires special cleaning or care, a leaflet giving advice on this shall be provided. NOTEIt is recognized that it is not possible to include advice on cleaning and care on a label with each pair of shoes, but retailers are encouraged to make such
41、 information available. 4 Method of labelling 4.1 The brand name or other means of identification, size and, where appropriate, the width fitting, shall be labelled on each item of footwear by one or more of the following methods: a) engraving;BS5833:1988 BSI 08-1999 3 b) stamped markings; c) adhesi
42、ve label. The information shall be clearly visible and legible. NOTEWithin practical limitations, the information should be positioned so that the effects of wear on its legibility are minimized. 4.2 Information on the materials of manufacture and, where appropriate, end use recommendations shall be
43、 made available either by one of methodsa),b) orc) in4.1 or by some other appropriate written method attached to the footwear, such as a swing ticket.

47、 Principle The thickness, or effective thickness, of the various layers comprising the forepart bottom of the shoe (excluding insole, bottom filler, and rand) is measured at several points within the tread region, by means of an optical magnifier containing a graduated scale. The thickness, or effec
48、tive thickness, is the average of these measurements. From the thickness, or effective thickness, of these layers the two predominant materials are identified. A.2 Apparatus A.2.1 An optical magnifier of about10times magnification containing a20mm scale graduated in0.1mm divisions. A.2.2 A steel rul
49、e, preferably flexible. A.2.3 A tee square A.2.4 Dividers with a locking/adjustment nut. A.3 Preparation of the footwear for measurement Cut the upper from the bottom just above the level of the bottom. If the construction includes a mudguard which goes part way up the upper, treat this as part of the upper and cut it away. Remove medium and high heels from womens footwear. Place the inside edge and toe of the inverted shoe bottom against a tee square (A.2.3) so that it touches the square at pointsA,B andX as shown inFigure 1. Mark pointsA a
