Talk:Steel-toe boots

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Note to self for article additions: Found in idustry trade rag: "Isco (Netherlands) and Arda (Mexico), two companies with a long tradition in manufacturing high quality steel caps, have announced that they have jointly taken over the American Steel Toe Company." The steel toe cap is often hidden beneath leather or rubber, but when you can see them, they are often stamped with "AST". Add picture, if possible. --Mdwyer 19:24, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I would actually like to know what kind of steel is used in these safety boots and shoes. I work for a steel stamping company and want to "bring on" the safety boot business to our company. Anyone with knowledge of this please email me at kjacobs@ptmcorporation.com.

I just took some of the information from this page like American Steel Toe Company, ISCO, and ARDA and nothing comes up...do they even exist?

[edit] Goth/Punk Fashion

An anon user marked the line about Goth and Punk fashion as NPOV. In response, I removed the whole line. I would argue that boots are goth and punk, but the toe material is immaterial. (hah!) The line mentioned combat boots, which probably have their own entry -- I'm not sure if they have steel toe caps or not. I would welcome a better way to capture this aspect of steel toed boots, though. --Mdwyer 20:37, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
