We recieved 5 pairs of sleepers from a thift store (which is the best way to go) and the feet have no 'no-slip' things on the bottom. Any ideas on how to make them grippy again?? Poor little guy slips all the time on our linoleum floor..

Use a hot glue gun and just put dots all over the bottom of the feet when it is dry it won;t be sticky but will give grip for him to walk. You could also try the fabric glue that is at stores like wal-mart then you can draw little pictures all over the bottoms of them and it will probably give the same effect as hot glue.

If the feet of the sleepers are intact and not ripped, buy a tube of "Shoe Goo". Spread it out on the bottom of the sleepers and give it plenty of time to dry. This should do the trick
Edit: I get a thumbs down and the idiot that said put velcro on them gets nothing, what kind of freaks are rating these answers????

I wish human beings might end asserting it rather is a racist question, it somewhat is greater of a biology one. i've got puzzled myself, why do darker human beings have lighter palms and ft. i think Qwerty has the closest answer. the 1st Africans have been in all threat dark throughout, and the mild palms and ft at last stepped forward. The trait basically surpassed alongside to their successors (Africans, African individuals, Jamaicans, Haitians, and so on...). the comparable way that the 1st Asian human beings stepped forward slanted eyes because of the climate. inspite of the undeniable fact that, Asians at the instant are basically born that way, inspite of climate.

Go to a craft store or craft section of a store, such as Walmart, and buy the puffy paint (used to decorate things like shirts) It has a very nice grip and you can even make cute designs with it if you want!

go to a second hand fabric store and see if they have grippy material then cut the old ones out and sew in the new ones..
or you can buy grippy socks and attach them to the sleepers..
but perhaps the second hand store isn't the best way to go, if you are buying worn out things....instead of 5 pair worn out , you might consider 2 pair new and just wash them.

Duct tape? Acctually I have used hot glue dots successfully. You could also try gluing and sewing on the "no-slip" rug things.
Good luck.

I am clumsy when it comes to dress shoes so I put msking tape on the bottom of them, sticky side against the sole of the shoe, but instead of putting it smooth I make sure it is krinckled, to add traction, works for me

Check a fabric store to see if they sell a tube of that type of product.
