The toe box is the front third of the sneaker. Just as the name suggests, this is the space in the shoe that is intended for the toes. The toe box is often reinforced with a mudguard to protect the sneaker from bad dirt or grime. Many people get annoyed when their toe box has the first wrinkles - but hey, that's part of it, isn't it?
The toe box is made from different materials depending on the model and, above all, depending on the manufacturer. It can be made of leather, mesh, rubber or even plastic.
