Don't see athletic steel toes. Several other styles below and ratings. Might be some regular athletic style with no leather since it is usually just for trim.

Answer 4

I wonder why you would want a product made of a non renewable resource (oil) and not a renewable one (animal skin)?  

Most work equipment stores have both.

Answer 5

Vegan Essentials (www.veganessentials.com) has Airseal Safety Boots.

And Quilliam--tanning leather involves very toxic ingredients to prevent the hide from rotting on the wearer's feet.  These toxic contaminants find their way into groundwater.  Tanners and people who live downstream from them often have health issues associated with the toxic metals used to preserve the skin.
