Vibram soles

If anybody decides to convert from felt bottoms to the new anti-slip Vibram soles DONT do it. I bought some new Simms wading boots w/ Vibram soles for wetsuiting, and it was like taking a trip to the ice skating rink while walking the rocks. This is after putting 8 carbide studs and 6 Simms Hardbite Star cleats on each boot. Returned them for old style felt sole and problem solved. Just figured Id share to save someone the aggravation I went through returning them to the vendor after junking them up with hardware.
