[QUOTE="lilmac, post: 276512, member: 3692"] J.C. working cows with steel toes could be an advantage, unless they stomp down real hard the boots [u]will[/u] protect your lil piggys. :D I worked heavy construction for 35 years and have heard horor stories of steel and composit toes colapsing, and amputating toes. :oops: The truth is if they had not been worn, the toes would have been crushed beond repair anyway. A few years back I was wearing a pair when a 17,000lb air handler was rolled over my foot. :help: The steel toe colapsed and crushed my big toe. I think that the damage would have been worse if I had not had them on. Also if you get crowded by one of your cows, a swift kick in the shin will get her atention a lot quicker if you have steel toes. :o Good luck, Mac [/QUOTE]
