Hi all,
received this request and must say I have zero experience in these. I
could use engineering logic (?) but would rather know what people are
actually doing and succeeding with!
Cheers and thanks
Bill

Hi Bill,
we are having problems with some clients wearing through the ends of their foot wear because of their gate pattern. Do you have any ideas for wear resistant toe caps.
In the past I have manufactured them out of sheet metal. and Stellite as well as moldings them out of thermoplastic.
Let us know if you receive this email.
Thanks, Mark
