I have had this product for about 6 Months. I wanted to test it first, before talking about it...It is made by Quabaug-Vibram-USA...It is actually one MM thick...It only comes in black, but they are supposed to showcase the beige color at our national shoe repair convention in August. You may be aware of the Topy from France, or the Mister Minute soling, but this is Thinner!

I guess one way to compare it, is if you have a spiral notebook, the cover of the book is the old thickness, and the pages are the new thickness.

I did try it out as a non slip soling, and it really doesn't work for snow. The best application is for those pointy toed shoes that have extremely thin soles. It wears good for how thin it is, otherwise.

Another caution I have is that if you are hard on your toes, like you wear them out in a couple of months, this material might peel back at the toe...and that could make you take an unexpected Trip!
