Don't know where you can get them but I do know where you can shove them.

You'll find them at either NZ Safety or Protector Safety, if you're unfortunate they may just have to order them in, most of the time when I've asked for them they've been in stock.

Placemakers have them and also Blackwoods Paykel i think.

I am on my second pair, called Gri - Sport from memory and quite comfy as well. (Bought for comfort not for nails though it is a handy bonus). Dont know how thick or strong the plate is but havent had penetration (tee hee hee) issues.

In the "old days" they were called Hobnail boots ... get a kick up the arse from one of those ... :doh:

Used to have a pair, lasted me about 4 years but I can't recall the name.
Had to throw them out when the rubber toe was tarmac'd away and water got to the steel, rust splinters, not nice.
