BIS CERTIFICATION FOR SPORTS FOOTWEAR IS 15844:2010

INTRODUCTION

Sports footwear is designed with precision and innovation to deliver top-notch performance, including features like water resistance, flexibility, and slip resistance, all while enduring wear and tear.

Additionally, these shoes are subjected to a flexibility test involving 100,000 cycles to ensure they remain intact without any cracking or damage. They are also subjected to chemical tests, performance evaluations, and construction assessments in accordance with the IS 15844 standard. These rigorous tests and standards guarantee that sports footwear is not only safe and durable but also capable of delivering exceptional performance for athletes.

To ensure the product quality of sports footwear, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has made it mandatory for manufacturers to undergo BIS registration and obtain the BIS ISI mark before selling it in the market. Manufacturers can use the ISI Mark on their products only after obtaining a license from BIS that is granted after BIS registration. The presence of the ISI mark on a product indicates that it complies with BIS's stringent quality standards
