Are there steel toed RUNNING shoes?
I’m a FedEx contractor/driver and I’m looking for steel toed running shoes. My whole day consists of dropping boxes on my feet, which is why I need the steel, and running from truck to house. Unfortunately I can think of no other profession that would need this Frankenstein combination of shoe qualities besides a delivery driver. I currently wear steal toed work sneakers that are terrible for running, the toe is constantly scrapping my toes and I get no support for my mid feet arch. Just wondering if such a thing exists or should I give up and just buy a good pair of normal running shoes and deal with boxes being dropped on my feet every so often?
Is it safe to wear steel toed boots?
I’ve entered a police explorer program and I need to bye boots as a part of my uniform. I was told by my captain not to wear them because if I’m out on the street directing traffic or something and someone runs over my feet in a car then the weight of that car will cut my toes off.
Is that true or not?
But I heard that they do protect you; for instance, my dad when he was a policeman said that he was moving a washing machine while wearing steel toed boots and it fell and he didn’t feel a thing. Also, I think the chances of a car running over your toes is very minimal and the chances of anything else hitting your feet (that steel toed boots could protect you from) is high. What do you think?
Steel-toed boots in cold weather?
If I wear a pair of thick wool socks, is walking around in the snow with steel-toed boots going to be a problem? I’m wondering if the steel will make my toes too cold.

Are steel toed hiking boots worth buying?
I have been wanting a new pair of hiking boots, but haven’t had the money. I just got a job that requires me to have steel toed boots. The job is only for a few weeks, but I may be required to wear them on other jobs in the future. Regardless of which style I get, I will most likely be buying Red Wing boots. On their website, I see they have steel toed hiking boots. What is the purpose of a steel toed hiking boot? Why would a hiker need to have steel toed boots? Wouldn’t that just be more weight? I see that some of their hiking boots have aluminum toes, claiming to be 33% lighter than steel with the same protection. Would these boots be good potential hiking boots as well as suitable for construction or should I just focus on work boots and buy myself some hiking boots at a later date?

I dont know which one is better for toes.

I have to wear steel toed boots for work for work this summer…?
And they end up messing up my toenails, scrunching them up, and grinding at them. Most of my shoes do this, but the steel toed boots are the worst. Is there anything that I can get to help prevent this. I can’t get new boots because they’re all the same and they’re incredibly expensive anyway, about 0. My Dad has worn steel toed boots for work for nearly 20 years and his toes now have strange absesses and deformities. We both have Morton’s toe, the second toe is larger than the first. What can I do?
Safety Toes: Steel Toe Caps
www.safetytoes.com Every employer is responsible for ensuring the health and safety of employees and other people affected by their business activities, such as visitors, customers and suppliers. The importance of workplace shoes and temporary safety shoes is vital. Many industries are heavily invested in moveable equipment and personnel need to move heavy objects.
Safety Toes: Toe Protection
www.safetytoes.com Why purchase expensive safety shoes or boots for employees and visitors when a better safety shoe alternative is available? Safety toe shoes offer an excellent solution when occasional toe protection is necessary. For example, a slip on safetytoe overshoe for visitors to food processing facilities can have protective toe attributes as well as isolating contaminants on ’street’ shoes. Safety toe shoes may provide toe protection and general foot protection but often these are either not available or cost-prohibitive. Work boots and steel toe safety shoes are not transferable but slip on safety visitor’s shoes are interchangeable and cost-effective.

Sounds dumb but buying socks taking me broke: how do you prevent steel toed shoes from wearing holes in toes?
No matter what I do (thick socks, reinforced toes, cotton nylon vs. cotton only, etc) my steel toed safety shoes wear a hole in my socks on BOTH feet in the big toe area. I’ve even tried tennis shoe style steel toed shoes (to see if shoe style/type made a difference) and the same thing happens. Is it something you just live with (like dropping toast and having it land butter side down on the floor) or is there a solution? And, no, I do not have long toenails (gross) – I keep them short and maintained. I’ve talked with co-workers and they have the same problem but didn’t think anyone else did so lived with it in silence. This is getting expensive in that it occurs rather fast and so you really get no life out of the socks before they need repair; or need to be pitched. Until I was required to wear them I didn’t know there could be a problem with safety boots/shoes besides additional weight.
