Non-Slip Lining and Cleats

A "non-slip lining" in a shoe is normally referring to the material (lining) placed on top of a shoe's sockliner...

In addition it can also be referring to the interior lining of the shoe's upper.

We have read claims stating that movement and slippage between your socks and the shoe can result in...

1) loss of balance and performance, and

2) an increase in heat due to friction.

These claims make sense and we therefore agree that we would like our cleats to not have slippage between our socks and our shoes. As to what types of materials do this best??? We don't really know yet...

Here is a claim from a "non-slip lining" supplier...
