I've my jazz shoes for about a year, although I haven't used them for the last 5 months or so. Anyways, the shoes are still in great shape but the bottoms are really slippery, mainly because I'm dancing on hardwood rather than Marley. Is there any way that I can "rough 'em up" a little? They're leather lace-ups by Bloch with a rubber sole. I've heard that with leather soled shoes you can run a sharp knife over them really lightly, would that work with these? Or maybe sandpapering them? I know I should buy new shoes, but right now I can't afford to! Any help is appreciated, thanks!
