comfort ish ok, durability depends on how often chiu wear bah? oni bad thing i noticed so far ish, once the rubber soles wears out, its rather slippery. :o

if chiu can, buy from overseas sites like asos or zappos which ish much cheaper den local shops.



I just bought this but its really slippery on wet tiles/coffeeshops where the floors are oily/wet.

It's like walking on oiled surfaces. Is there anything I can do to the sole? DO you all go to Mr Mint to resole it?

It is a common sight for Mexico 66. You have to be extra careful when walking on slippery surfaces. Not advisable to remove the sole as that will change the shoes totally. Mr Mint might be able to add some non-slip pads to the sole.

Read some of the pointers below and test them:
