There are many types of safety shoes. Most have steel inserts over the toe area and flexible steel insoles to prevent punctures by nails. They may also have metal instep guards. These features protect against smashed toes and feet if a heavy object is dropped, and prevent punctures in the soles of the feet if a sharp object, such as a nail protruding from a piece of lumber, is stepped on.
