Question the wisdom of steel toes... but, transmit the cold and crush all the toes with major trauma.



Can anyone point me to statistics or information that prove this. I was having a discussion about this last week. Was advised the Australian Postal Service Motorcycle Mail Delivery guys are now banned from wearing Steel Toes due to high probability of crushing the toes in an accident. I would think if you had an accident that crushed the steel caps, not sure how alive one would be to worry about the crushed toes. Also they sell "Steel Cap Motorcycle Boots" One would assume the legal libility would be too great to continue producing these boots if they resulted in crushed toes.
