While the lugged outsole provides excellent traction, extremely slippery surfaces (e.g., ice, wet polished floors) may still pose a challenge. Always exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of embedded debris, which can reduce grip.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and repositioning the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder underneath it. If the squeak is from the outsole, ensure it's clean.
