How to Keep Your Shoes from Slipping: Gripalicious

Griapalicious is popular on the runway — with good reason. Not only do they prevent scuffs on the bottom of your shoes (just in case you need to return them to the store-did I say that?) they also make sure that you don’t slip and slide on the runway.  They are self-adhesive (but not reusable).
