Abstract.Research results shows that RF-plasma treatment increases the adhesion of the coating film to the leather uppers and resistance to abrasion and repeated bending of uppers, which define the ability of material to preserve its consumer properties and characterize longer safety of special purpose footwear form during its wearing. IntroductionTextile industry is a significant multiple-discipline sector of the economics, which influences on the stable and balanced social and economic development of the country and provides an independent and intellectual levels of the society. From the branch work effectiveness point and taking into account of situation around the external economic rate huge and massive tasks connected to the renew of high-quality production and continuous process of labor protection improvement need to be solved by the domestic producers [1,2]. High productivity of labour is not only the result of interaction of human, nature and technique but also right organized labor activity.Physical activity and capacity for work of the specialist is provided by the rationally chosen equipment. Enterprises provide their workers with means of individual protection, which include garment and footwear of special purpose. Means of individual protection protect from adverse impact during the operation of work. The main aim of use of means of individual protection is prevention of industrial injuries.Garment and footwear of special purpose are operated in severer industrial conditions than domestic. Because of this the construction and technology of garment and footwear of special purpose have specific features. The level of deterioration of uppers materials are determined by physical activity, which in turn is divided into biomechanical determined by anatomical and physiological features of a man and sanitary and hygienic properties connected to the whole or part hygroscopicity of material [3]. Any means of individual protection, regardless the end use, must be ergonomic, harmless, safe, ensure the unimpeded normal functioning of the human body during the planned period of operation.Materials used at special purpose footwear production differs a lot from the deterioration of model footwear by character and level of exploitation deterioration and also service life. Character, terms of advent and the intensity of defects development of uppers, lining and bottom of footwear are
