Grip was sufficient. Bought this because I needed something to prop up my Samsung Galaxy Note 20, which is a huge 6 inch phone. I can recommend. I got so many compliments on these! Next time I buy shoes I will go to REI where you have a year to wear shoes an if they don’t work out, you can return them for cash no questions asked. There is no comparison. I absolutely love it, not to mention all the bottles were fully filled up with many kinds of seasons and herbs. The only down point is the charging system. Fit Flop soles are wonderful and keep my feet from aching after a long walk. ) I have a black pair and a beige pair -- obviously the black pair is more forgiving on stains and dirt, but I wanted to feel like I was getting a whole new slipper -- something that would look different.
