I'm a big fan of the rubber toecap. A big big fan...
They form a common theme through my sneaker interest: starting with old-fashioned British plimsolls when I was a wee boy (good for climbing trees and fighting!) then on to Converse All Stars (awesome!) and, once my sneaker and wrestling thing was finding full expression by my twenties, the classic Bata Bullet wrestling shoe (canvas and rubber again, with a delicious white rubber toecap!).
Tonight I'm wearing PF Flyers, a model called Grounder Hi, a sort of Chunky Chuck with nice white canvas and (you guessed it!) solid rubber toecaps.
