Toe Guards


Plastic Toe Guard	Steel Toe Guard	Plastic Extended Toe Guard	Aluminum Extended Toe Guard

Wear these guards over your shoes or boots to shield toes and feet from accidental impact. All meet ASTM F2413 for impact resistance.

For half sizes, round up. For large work shoes, order one size up.

Extended Toe Guards—Longer guards provide additional foot protection.

Impact Resistance—To calculate impact, multiply the object’s weight in pounds by the distance it falls in feet. For example, guards rated 75 ft.-lbf. can absorb the force of a 15 lb. object dropped from 5 ft.
