slippery sneakers

Is there a non-Skid Spray for shoes?

I have work shoes which prevent me from slipping on greasy floors, and I have tennis shoes which are much more comfortable and grip asphalt in a wonderful way. Is there a product which will make my tennis shoes work-safe?
besides this

These guys (who modify shoes in a Batman-like way? seem to argue that Grip & Guard is a good choice for shoes. Of course, Plastidip might help -- it makes a coating that feels like the rubbery coating on wrenches, if you know what I mean.

Having tried to use Plastidip to re-cover a clutch pedal I don't think you'd find it effective. It just doesn't adhere to the surface well enough to deal with the kind of pressure and torsion that walking on something puts on things.

Is there an anti-slip spray for sneakers? Yup, at least one. Made by these guys.

Does it work? Will it suit your purposes? I don't have a clue.
