Designed and tested to compliment steel cap footwear, the lip of the METGUARD sits on top of the steel cap at load point and is secured with existing laces or optional straps. The guard helps protect worker's upper foot by deflecting and dispersing the impact of falling loads. It fits all safety shoes and boots and is made of durable, lightweight and non-conductive polycarbonate.
