toe cap
Shoe front protector
A toe cap is the reinforced covering over the front of a shoe or boot, protecting the toes from impact or compression.
Steel toe caps are standard in work boots for industrial settings: These boots have composite toe caps rated for heavy machinery.
Decorative toe caps in contrasting leather appear on dress shoes, especially oxfords and brogues.
