Foam soles for both asphalt and metal- we always use them on asphalt shingles over 5/12 for grip, also when outdoor temps hit 80’s for roof protection and on every metal roof for same reasons. We get so much pollen here, the roofs turn yellow, so even a 2/12’s painted metal roof is like working on a kids slide - ya gotta hang on or your moving. I’ve never tried any sort of magnetic boot, but now you’ve got my curiosity piqued. Spider-Man watch out!
And yes that’s the name -Korkers. They offer a few different soles for different purposes - one of my guys was a fly fishing guide and had a pair that he used in streams with soles that were meant just for that purpose. The foam soles I use flake off pretty quickly IF you rotate your feel on asphalt, so for me it sort of taught me to be extra gentle as I move around- sort of in that ‘Grasshopper’ kind of way.
