There is a lot of info on boots but nothing about a steel toe.  Seems like all boots should have steel or at least a composite toe. IMHO.  What do members of construction troops wear?
 
Mk IIIs, WWBs, and Desert Boots are not steel toed.

Pers who need steel toed boots get them issued.  The steel toed Desert Boot is actually more comfy than the regular boot.
 
For most duties, steel toe is not needed. All it would do is add extra weight. And by the 10km of a 20km foot patrol, extra weight is the last thing I want.
