I got Angie a really cure pair of boots, but the first time she wore them, she was constantly slipping and falling. Even when she walked on carpet, which is pretty bad. So I started to think. What can I do to the shoes to make them less slippery? I need something that isn't noticeable and won't fall off. Then I decided to try my hot glue gun. It totally worked! I was skeptical at first because I didn't know if the glue would peel off the bottom of the shoes, but Angie has worn them a couple of times now and it's nowhere near starting to fall off. And she hasn't slipped or fallen ever since.
As you can see, I applied the glue in straight lines, but you could do dots, or a design of your own. I don't have any slippery shoes myself, but if I ever do, I will definitely try this. And FYI, the shoes do make noise after you add the hot glue to them. It helps to put a little baby powder over the glue (after it dries of course).
