Thanks, David! Your's is the only presentation that shows how to remove the steel toes from the INSIDE of the boot. Your method worked great for my high top boots. Removed insole, slid putty knife under a glued-in thin leather layer that lies under ball of foot to lift it up, stuck fingers under it and worked fingers up to loosen adhesive holding steel toe cap to the toe leather. Once adhesive was loosened, pulled out steel toe. Pushed back cloth into place and glued down the layer that lies under ball of foot. No bumps left over and no sewing required on this pair of boots. You saved me from needing to buy a new pair. Great video.

Nice! Much less destructive than the other methods on youtube which involves cutting the front of the boot open. Im going to try this now on my work boots. I paid so much for them but cant wear them due to the discomfort and pain the hard toe causes. Thanks for the video!!

Depending on the design of the shoe, it may be much harder than this. I just did this today and it was way more difficult than this because the main insole of the shoe was glued onto the shoe and it was holding down the steel. I had to pull with pliers and slide it out by rolling the steel up and out. My hands are almost blistered now. But it was worth it.

First I ripped out the inner soles, I used a regular knife to get under them (my knife was bent by the time I was done) After removing the inner soles, there maybe some cloth which you'll have to rip out as well to get access to the metal toe cap. I hit the toe caps from the outside with the side of my hammer, think I placed something over so I wouldn't mark the leather. Just a few good smacks helps looses them from any glue. Then I used the knife again sticking it in the shoe wedging it between the toe cap and leather to further separate it, and it just pulled out really easily then. Bought some new inner soles and job done.

Most things in our society have become this way and you know why? It's because of the fking insurance companies. Their goal is to take the little peoples money, the poor saps who work in crappy warehouse jobs, then invest it in the stock market (it's how Warren Buffet became rich). They clamp you in steel-toed boots, (even though few people ever get serious foot injuries in warehouses!), and this way they are almost ensured of never having to pay out for an injury, so they are basically stealing from broke people and making them suffer by having to wear these stupid, unnecessary and painful shoes. I once had to wear them in a warehouse that had 1 forklift which was only used once per day, but even with that, we were ALL forced to wear these fking steel toes! It's goddamned criminal is what it is - but then what isn't. It's all white-collar crime now.
