    I have new shoes

    They look nice, and they're fine for comfort, but the soles are very slippery. I feel like I'm walking on ice all the time.

    The soles are leather with absolutely no tread (the only feature on the sole is that the heel is raised. The rest of the sole is simply flat and smooth). Should I go walk on some broken glass to build up some sort of grip, or should I just live with it and file a lawsuit when I inevitably hurt myself?

    Why did you buy such useless shoes?

    I can't believe I clicked on this thread, btw. Wow, I'm bored.

        If they are too slippery I usually give them a little rough up with fine grained sandpaper.

            Go to a shoe repair place and have the soles and heels replaced with rubber soles and heels.

            All told, it will set you back about $30.

            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                I bought a pair of little adhesive thingies (the other sides of which are rough, almost like sandpaper), made specifically for this purpose, from CVS that I stuck to the soles of my shoes to increase the grip.

                  Fine sand paper was the best suggestion.
                  I do it all the time with my expensive dress shoes.

                      Nah-- For someone in a northern climate where you might actually face real ice-- The only good dress shoes are the ones with proper soles and a tread. Anything else is nonsense unless you want to be changing shoes all the time

                        Oh and I clicked on this thread since kh was funny in other threads so I hoped he might be funny here as well despite the thread title

                        I guess him falling would be funny.

                        Oh and krazy

                        I will be archiving this thread so that when I hear of the shoe lawsuit I can provide proof of your foreknowledge of their attributes

                            Ehrr, denmark is actually located in such a climate and I've never had trouble walking on ice with leather soles.

                              Shoes with a tread are not good dress shoes. Unless you're a lumberjack.

                              If you do have to take good shoes out in the muck, wear rubbers.
