Is there a way to stop my shoes from squeaking when I walk?

Question

I have new shoes, man-made materials and they squeak when I walk in them.

Answer 1

cheap shoes?

Answer 2

Try scuffing the rubber soles of the shoes on some sandpaper, or on the grip-tape of a skateboard. If the shoes surface is really smooth, you'll get that squeaky rubbery sound. You might also try going for a jog with them on pavement.

Let me know how that works out for you.

Does your shoe have a sort of gel air bubble form of issues on the shoe ? thats whats inflicting the squeaking. the two pop the bubble or wait till it pops itself or wears down so it wont squeak

Answer 4

I step on chalk powder, but I remember using some powdery substance to make my ballet shoes not slippery and/or squeky. Forgot the name though.

Answer 5

if its your feet making the noise, wear socks. If it's the shoes make sure the soles of your shoes are dry.

Answer 6

My shoes always squeeked, too. My collegues told me that squeeky shoes meant that you haven't paid for them. Well, I got mine on sale, so they should have only squeeked half the time...
