Reply to comment by scruffychef in Shrink wrap help !! by ectrez
I would agree with you if I hadn’t tested the idea already. By using a heat gun and shrink wrap traction is suprisingly not actually lost. If used on a smooth polished concrete floor I cant tell a difference untill after about half an hour later when dust has built up in the wrap in which is starts to loose traction. However, this issue is negated by the poolside moisture levels.
The idea of adding having water inside the plastic is a concept I hadn’t thought of thank you. And as a life guard It would be silly to wear shoes that you would be hesitant to jump In the pool with. And you aren’t allowed to wear footwear that can slip off such as flip flops at my establishment.

Fair enough, the only other instances of people wearing booties or wrapping shoes have been like, bedbug cleanouts, and once, a new hire at the fast food place I was working at showed up in bright blue wraps so he wouldnt wreck his custom print Vans.

Yh that’s just sad tho. Wear work boots to something like that. But the plastic wrap is more to contain micro dirt and grease from the street from contaminating the poolside. Rather than the other way around.
Funny story tho
