Such linings are made of polyurethane or rubber.

If there is a desire to save – buy similar stickers against sliding in the store and take them to the sole.

Note that the lining is selected in size as follows – the first size is suitable for the shoes or boots 35-38 size, the second – for a number with the values ​​of 39-41, and the stickers with a third size will be suitable for sizes from 42 and above.

Folk ways to make stability of shoes in ice

Cut from the plaster two pieces of medium size and one of them rushes from the side of the sock to the shoes, and the other strengthen in the heel area.

The leukoplasty reduces the glide of shoes on the ice, but at the same time she is rapidly wear out, so you will periodically update the pieces of material on the sole. So that the plaster is not rushed into the eyes, in front of the sticker it can paint it with a waterproof black marker or shoe paint.

Equivalent to the plaster can be a rough felt. Cut pieces of felt on the size of the shoes and stick to the sock and heel. Felt is well withstanding friction with the surface and allows not to slide on it even in the conditions of the strongest ice.

You can try to apply both the following method: Rinse the shoe soles so that they do not remain dirt left, dry or carefully wipe the surface. Take a glue tube «Moment» or «Superclaud» and apply for the base with small zigzags or mesh. While the glue did not have time to dry, push the coarse sand over it.

Now take the shoes that you want to do non-slip. Treat the fitted base of fashionable boots or shoes with a thick layer of silicone (at least 5 millimeters) and attach a cut embossed stencil. It is necessary to apply with the effort so that the drawing is imprinted in a silicone layer.

Remove the homemade stencil and dry the silicone pattern with a hairdryer. So you can with your own hands and in a short time to create a protector against sliding on boots or shoes.

Take care of everything you need to apply the following folk method, in which the surface of the sole is scratched with a nail or other acute submitumed.
