Default Chair Glides

One of life's minor problems that can become major aggravations are the
glides one installs on the legs of chairs to protect the floor as
people shuffle the chairs around.

I've tried a lot of things. Glides that are nailed to the end of the
leg always seem to pull out, and tear the floor up if not caught in
time. Soft plastic mushrooms. Felt wears out and also captures grit.
Polished steel works, but seems to come only in nail-style glides.
And so on.
