Never had them. The toes were gawdawfully noisy enough, in my limited experience. I would seriously worry about slippage. I had a slight slip problem with toes. With both, it might be a real problem. But that "Phillips Special" leather wedge that good shoemakers use, I have found to be extremely resilient. I wear through toes fast, but not heels.Originally Posted by Manton
Is this "Philips Special" leather wedge thing for heel protection?Originally Posted by kolecho
That is a nice site. I can't believe the great deal our Teutonic friends get on San Marzano tomatoes (3 cans for 7.20!!!). I couldn't find the metal toe taps, though. Interestingly enough, I also could not find any of those quaint German Kaviar films I keep hearing about.Originally Posted by edmorel
What do you think about metal heels? Too slippery? too noisy?Originally Posted by zjpj83
Both. I've gone off them, although I did like walking iron-shod over the world.Originally Posted by Lucky Strike
I understand it was fashionable in Hungary(?) to install taps so as to have that noise.Originally Posted by LabelKing
I think you're right.Originally Posted by Lucky Strike
