I wanted to get a new pair of non-slip shoes for my restaurant gig as my previous ones were worn out. I love Merrells so I was happy to see they offer non slip shoes. However, I quickly learn that they are NOT non-slip. In fact, this is probably the slippiest pair of shoes I've ever worn. I'm very surprised that no one else has reported this issue. DO NOT buy them to work in a restaurant, it's a death sentence.
