What type of footwear that has metal reinforcement to protect the bottom of your foot for protection?

Does the material of safety boots need to be light or heavy?

The weight of materials in safety boots is not really an important factor. What's important is for the material to be strong. Older safety boots are usually made with steel covering the toes, which protected them from heavy items being dropped on them. Newer Safety boots can be made with titanium or special plastic coverings that protect your toes just as well, but are much lighter.
