These shoes have probably the worst wet-surface grip that I've ever experienced in a trail shoe. I wore these once in dry conditions, and they did OK, but on a wet day, I felt like I was ice-skating and had zero confidence in my footing. At one point, I took a hard fall after slipping in a spot where I'd expect other shoes to be fine. Given that this is a waterproof shoe, it seems fair to evaluate it based on its performance in wet conditions. In dry conditions, I'd almost always opt for a non-waterproof shoe for better breathability. The cheap generic outsole rubber on this [premium-priced] shoe is miles behind something like Vibram or Contagrip, and in my opinion renders the shoe fairly useless.
