I have had a pair of vibrams for a while now, but when it comes to work I need to wear non slip shoes in the kitchen for safety or is there something else out there to wear.

[Greenbeast]

vibrams are pretty non-slip aren't they?

[Dr. Bork Bork]

Yeah, mine seem pretty sturdy. Have you tried Vibram KSO Treks?

[Greenbeast]

i've got the kso trek so perhaps it's not a good comparison if he has one of the lighter-weight soles

[Paulhagakure]

What about the safety issue, hot oil splashes, dropping of knives etc ?

[Paulhagakure]

I was looking at kso trk sport, but still safety issues?

I think there are some leather KSOs that might do the trick, or there used to be

There are also vibrams for watersports. Look at the flow.

Whether ChiRunning in colder temperatures or crossing a stream with your kayak, the FiveFingers® Flow provides comfortable protection. A 1.2mm Neoprene lining and 2mm EVA footbed provide the thermal insulation and protection. And our new IdroGrip performance rubber (available only in black) is razor–siped for added slip resistance over a variety of surfaces."
