Nice! What sole is on these? The current collection uses ridgeway I'm pretty sure.

These are on brown dainite and they seem to be from the initial run.

Oh nice!! Love Dainite Studded but I also do really like the Dainite Ridgeway

I like the Ridgeway too, have it on 4 pairs (non-Trickers).

Does Ridgeway have the same slipping problem as studded Dainite ? I just got a pair with Ridgeway and have not tried it on wet surfaces at all yet since there is no rainy weather now.

My experience in rainy Singapore is that ridgeway performs much better than the studded dainite, even while transitioning from wet road to tiled building lobby. I am also generally careful in any case. Havent encountered any slippage with the Ridgeway so far.

That's my experience also: More grip with the Ridgeway sole. I'm living in rural Germany with rare ice and snow, so walking the streets with the Dainite is not an issue at all, however entering wet marble is a bit like skating on ice.

I have slipped on a very smooth wet log with the Ridgeway. I think I would have slipped regardless of the footwear as the wood was so smooth and wet (I didn’t fall over just slipped one leg off the log). I’ve found it very grippy in other situations such as on rocks and mud. It definitely has more traction than the Studded.
Both traditionally made for the golf course.

Ridgeway feels softer to me for whatever reason. I tend to think I feel more shock on pavement with dainite. Would be all for more Tricker's with ridgeway in the future as I think I prefer it over both commando and dainite.

Agree- I did feel Ridgeway to be softer on my Carlos Santos boots from the get go, as compared to the studded Dainite on my Stows.

I really feel my feet smacking the ground with the dainite studded soles compared to some other options. That said I still find dainite plenty comfortable and wouldn't hesitate to buy more makeups that use it.
