In realtion to shoes what are these called please?

When I was younger I can remember my Dad using glue to attach black like ends to my shoe heels. He used to get them from Wollies. Does anyone know please what they are called so I can look into buying some.
Many Thanks

    the metal ones were called Blakeys, they are still made. They might do rubber ones as well?
