round toe

Not pointed tip

Round toe describes a shoe or boot with a curved, rounded front rather than pointed or squared off.

It's the most traditional toe shape, offering more room for the foot: She prefers round-toe flats for comfort.

The term appears in shoe shopping and fashion contexts to distinguish from pointed-toe or square-toe styles.
