I always wear steel toed boots. But there is a funny story about them: 40+ years ago, I worked road construction while in college, mostly running a jackhammer prepping roads for new asphalt. We had no hard-hats, safety glasses, ear protection or steel-toed boots. Some guys even wore tennis shoes. When running the jackhammers (90 lbs) we'd brace the blades with our toes to start them where we wanted to and curl our toes in our shoes/boots in case the jackhammers bounced back, which they often did. Well, they made us add all the safety stuff, including steel toed boot. In the first couple of days, a buddy's hard hat was jiggling around and he tried to hold it on his head with one hand and the jackhammer hit the steel toes and bounced back onto his instep and broke his foot before he knew it. Some went back to regular toed boots. Most of us "lost" our hard hats. We never could figure out what could fall out of the sky and hit us in the head while working on a road.
