does s8 synthetic slides on bottom of shoe really slide as well as leather?

These are an entry level shoe, they slide well for an entry shoe but not as well as a $$$100-150 shoe which usually are leather! So far mine are sliding pretty decent just can't replace the pad!

Yes, the slide is great. I've noticed that since wearing these badboys, my approach is more accurate... Not to mention the support and overall comfort of this shoe is phenom, AND I'm seeing a lot of novice/average bowlers rocking them at the lanes now. So this is a really good buy. Sorry for the delayed response btw

The slides on the bottom of these shoes slide perfectly. I have used them for 4 weeks now and they give me just enough slide without being too slippery. One of the guys I bowled with last week slid too much and fell in his expensive leather bottom shoes. For the money and being just a hack bolwer I think these shoes are really great. I believe you can use a soft wire bush to clean the bottoms if they get too dirty.

I have been using them for over four weeks and it does slide just as well in my leagues

Yes. That is part of why I bought them. Slide on left shoe and rubber on right.

No, it is smooth plastic which makes it slightly slippery-- my only complaint. It fits great on my S4.

No, it is kinda slick and it does slide very easily. If you are looking for something non-skid, I would not recommend this cover.

The bottom is textured, but I do think you would slip wearing these, I tried it against my travertine and it was slippery, maybe not so much on a mat.

The hard piece is pretty smooth Plastic, the top and bottom are like a smooth rubber. I wouldn't classify it as slipper but it's More slippery than grippy

They have a "non-skid" backing, but it is not adhesive. If used with sandals, they would "show."

No. It's claimed as a feature and I agree--the phone is very secure. You can set the amount of friction. I use it with a case on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have it adjusted to slide in and not move.

They will probably slip. Wearing tennis shoes they stay pretty well but without shoes they slide for me (with 4#/ankle) even after tightening multiple times. Probably won't find much better though...

I would say yes. I personally had a few layers of shoe polish on different leathers. Liquid and paste. However, after I used the Tandy die, I still went over THAT with polish, and it came out absolutely like new. Beautiful and shiny! Hope that helps.

No skid bottom does provide more friction than a smooth one. I wont say it is non slip.

It is spongy but has a suede-like finish that gives grip. My heel doesn't slip up and down in the shoes where I inserted them.

No. They are made of a thin dry-fit fabric. My son loves how cool they are, but they do not have any padding for sliding.

I haven't had any problems with it sliding. I'm still very happy with my purchase.

I wear an 8.5 and it fits ok. But, it kind of slides around and never feels quite right.
