This hack is a winner for people who wear sneakers or casual sporty shoes all the time. Specially a winner for children as they wander around a lot.

Use sand paper to increase friction with the floor:

Take the sandpaper and scrub them at the outer layer of your shoe. The use of sand paper improves friction between floor and feet. This paper thus, allows you to walk in a nice balanced manner. Even some sneakers have slippery soles; it’s a fit for them too. In short, be it a shoe or a sandal, sand paper always works the trick.
