Ever thought of ceramic being comfortable to walk in? The newest shoes from STICO use just that material to maintain a slip-resistant shoe for the kitchen. A rubber outsole covers the shoe. And a synthesized ceramic layer holds most of the slip resistance, which means that no matter how worn down the shoe is, it will never slide. The insoles are made with high elasticity EVA, the foam sheeting, for long time comfort during hours of standing.
