I bought a couple of pairs, and they were good at the start. When they start to wear down they become very slippery and I fell a couple of times. I ended up taking them off.
Though they were easy to trace the shape of my shoe on and to apply. My stairs felt slippery in these and I haven't experienced it anywhere else, but be careful walking on smooth surfaces with these soul protectors on your shoes.
I was afraid that the sole protectors would make my shoes more slippery but to my luck they did not. I had some struggles trying to cut them to fit the sole as I wasn't sure about how far back they should go (I used them on a pair of Lazy Rivers) but I managed. On the more curvy parts of the sole the sole protector may not grip perfectly and some dirt may get inside. Other than that they stay really well. You can't see the sole pattern just as clearly as before but it's a small price to pay for not completely ruining the pattern. After a lot of walking and dancing the pattern is still intact!
I never used to protect the soles of my shoes until I heard about these. You heat the soles, pop them on, and away you go - they last very well and keep your soles pretty!
