Non slip. Haven't walked wet glass though.
Excellent traction on wet and oily concrete compared to all the other similar shoes I tried. These are way better than the competition. Lightweight and comfortable. The laces have to be double knotted, and checked on every week or two or three depending on how tight you cinch down the knot, but they are flat, and are not causing any rubbing anywhere. This is my second pair, my first pair is 8 months old at least. I just got this pair because I wanted new padding underfoot, and the padding behind my heel had worn out but wasn't rubbing me uncomfortable or anything. These shoes will last a year or more for sure. I wear them 12 out of 14 days exactly. For work, and they get sprayed with water mist each day on (accident) by the others.

Comfortable and Durable. 5 Stars.
Worth every penny. I work 12 hour shifts in a metal factory. These shoes are exposed to high heat in a furnace, direct heavy air pressure, hot grease, and metal grindings all night for the past few months. I’m on my feet moving all night. But they’ve held up perfectly so far. I’ve lost no traction and nothing is peeling off. My feet, ankles, and calves have stopped hurting. I forget I have them on because of the padding, soles, and fit. Not to mention they look great.I don’t expect them to last a couple years but I wouldn’t be surprised at this point. After having to replace my Keen steel toed boots every 4 months, these Ariats are a breath of fresh air.I clean them with a heavy air hose at the end of every shift but that hasn’t seemed to bother them.I highly recommend these shoes and I’m a big fan of Ariat now.

Excellent Everyday Work Shoe
For years I've had Red Wings as they would be the only boot that would hold up. I usually got 2 years out of my Red Wings. I swapped to work shoes as they are lighter and my feet tend to sweat less. I tried New Balance, horrible (less than 4 months they were junk and were very uncomfortable. I tried Colombia they lasted 8 months but had no toe protection and were extremely slippery. The Ariats have fixed all of my concerns. The slip resistance is amazing, the composite toe is great and were reasonably priced given the quality. I've only had them for 1 month but they look like new. If I can get more than a year out of them they will be my forever work shoe.I'm an automotive tech so slip resistance is well tested and the failure on every pair of shoes I've had has been the sole separating from kneeling down to set lift arms. No signs of any wear yet.

Comfy but huge huge huge
I ordered these because I wanted footwear with a small profile while maintaining safety standards for work but they are huge. If I would have known just how absolutely humongous these were I would not have bought them. They are the same size as huge boots but in a sneaker form. Matter of fact my leather ariat boots fit tighter and more snug than these. The shoes in the picture are the same size for reference
