Do people have bent toes?
Because there is a hammer toe which is a deformity of the toe. The end of the toe is bent downward. Hammer toe most often affects the second toe. However, it may also affect the other toes. The most common cause of hammer toe is wearing short, narrow shoes that are too tight. The toe is forced into a bent position. Muscles and tendons in the toe tighten and become shorter. Hammer toe is more likely to occur in: women who wear shoes that do not fit well or often wear shoes with high heels or children who wear shoes they have outgrown. The condition may be present at birth (congenital) or develop over time. In rare cases, all of the toes are affected. This may be caused by a problem with the nerves or spinal cord.

A composite toe shoe has similar toe-protecting reinforcement that is made of a "composite" material like kevlar, carbon fiber, or plastic. Also, while composite shoes can be made as impact resistant (dropping things) they aren't as resistant to shear (chainsaws, grinders etc.) Most of the Composite toe caps are thicker than steel toe caps, only some very advanced composite toe caps are as thin as steel toe caps, but price is very high, so for most of the plastic toe cap safety shoes, the producing shoes lasts are different from the steel toe cap safety shoes lasts.
