Bad Soles
By Burns
Ranked #1785 - Men's Hiking Shoes
May 3, 2007
Everything is great but for the traction. I slipped several times while hiking and then wiped out while walking down a wet asphalt path at college. This is ridiculous. I don't think I've ever slipped before in any shoes unless there was ice on the ground. Don't know why the soles are so ineffective but the rubber compound seems to be faulty.
