Toe Plates
Couldn't load pickup availability
If you tend to drag your toes when you walk, prematurely wearing out the tips of your soles, Toe Plates are the way to go. What we do is cut out a notch at the tips of the sole and insert a metal plate that will keep your soles from wearing out super fast.
A common question is. "won't I hear the clicking while I walk?" and the answer is no. Unless you are tip-toeing around you won't hear the metal plate since it is countersunk in the sole.
We offer 3 options:
Lulu Tips: These are the silver half-circle tips. we have a few sizes ranging from 2''-3'', so just measure the tips of your soles to make sure they will fit. If they don't fit, you will have to choose the Custom Tip Option.
Triumph Toe Plates: These are brass plated and don't go straight across. Again these are brass plated, so once you walk a little bit, you will see the steel underneath. if you want solid brass, choose the Custom Tip Option
Custom Tips: These are designed to fit any size and shape tip. We start with a solid Brass plate 1/8'' thick, shape it to size, and drill out the holes.
Please note, these prices are based on new or like new shoes and boots. If your soles are worn down too much, they will require a resole before installing the toe plates
