Not so great on wet surfaces - Oboz Sawtooth Low BDry Hiking Shoe - Mens

I like the style and fit of this shoe but beware, the sole of this shoe is very hard and slips on wet stepping stones or wood surfaces. It's odd that a waterproof shoe, which should be designed for wet conditions, has very little traction on wet surfaces. I walked out my back door this morning and the wooden steps were wet from rainfall during the night. I hit the top step and my foot slipped right out from under me. Very dangerous shoe in wet conditions. I would only recommend this shoe to folks who intended on dry hiking, but, then, unless you live in the Desert Southwest, you never know when it's gonna rain. So, really, I would not recommend this shoe to anyone. I'm dissapointed because one of the sales reps at CampSaver highly recommended this shoe. Otherwise I don;t think I would have purchased it. Oh well, live and learn.
