Works great on concrete and asphalt
With the COVID crisis, I've not been able to dance indoors. The alternative is outdoors on concrete or asphalt (or the grass, but I'm fine in bare feet for that!) These work great on both concrete and asphalt.The soles will last better on concrete than asphalt. I only got about 2 uses on asphalt (about 5 hours of dancing); they got really chewed up. If you dance on concrete, they should last longer. When I danced on concrete, I hardly saw any wear.I attached them to my Bosch dance sneakers. The dance sneakers by themselves didn't allow me to pivot on asphalt and were hard on my knees. But this product allows me to pivot and spin just like on a regular dance floor.For those that gave this a low review because the soles didn't last long, is there an alternative? The soles2dance web site sells the raw materials in 8x10" or 12x12" sheets; you cut them out yourself. That's the only other alternative I could find.

Expensive and wear out fast
For me they only helpful part ones the circles, and the other parts were never used because there was nowhere to fit them on the shoe. I wish they would instead include two more circles.Be prepared that they wear out very fast.Some of our dancers can use these up in one evening!Wish there was something better out there, like dance shoes MADE for outdoors with spin points. Basically we need gym shoes that are very supportive for dancing on concrete and asphalt and that are not overly gripping and have teflon's spin points, not just on the 2 toes of the ballerina foot but across the ball of the foot.

Soles will wear away after 4-8 hours of use on concrete!it
The description on Amazon indicates that the stick on soles allow easy pivoting on concrete.That is why I purchased the product. However, the explanation which accompanies the productIndicates it will wear away after 4-8 hours of use. If that is the case, in a week the stick on soles will be worthless to me as I dance a couple of hours a night at the square in The Villages, Florida. I would not have made this purchase if I had known this, and it is not returnable.

Wow! Buy these now.
I'm a professional dancer. And sometimes have to perform outdoors on concrete, which is terrible for your feet and knees - especially since my default movements want to involve a ton of spins, twists, and turns. Over the years I've tried untold numbers of footwear solutions and hated every one for various reasons - even modifying what I do, the problem of outdoor footwear is a tough one to solve.But. THESE PLASTIC DISKS ARE AMAZING AND I'M PUTTING THEM ON OUTDOOR SHOW SHOES FOREVER NOW.No exaggeration, these are basically life-changing. Please make these forever.

Magic
They are made from teflon-like plastic, and worked very well for intended purpose - enabling argentine tango pivots on rough pavement. The friction with pavement is roughly comparable to suede on wood - not too slippery at all. Per inventor, they should last about 6hrs, but on the relatively smooth concrete they easily lasted me 30 hours. It is important to use good glueing technique if you want them to last - clamp well and let them sit for a few hours after use. This is really worth it! After seeing how the soles are constructed I now purchase raw sheets from the seller and cut the template myself, that saves some $$$, but one should definitely use this kit first time around to see how the gluing pattern works and for the instructions.

Durability
They work really well, but they don't hold up. I only get about 3 times use out of it on outdoor black top or concrete surfaces

Perfect for dancing on cement etc...
So glad I found these on Amazon... I've glued the soles to a pair of flats as directed. They make outdoor dancing much more enjoyable and fun! I have been using them once a week for a couple of months, so there's some normal wear and tear (see photo), but the soles are still quite functional. One small caveat - you have to be extra careful when you walk on any wood floor because they are very slippery...

SAVE YOUR MONEY!
I followed the instructions and very carefully attached these discs to my flat, smooth soled shoes. I was all excited to give them a whirl and was very pleased that I was able to dance on concrete with ease.... BUT after just one use, these discs were severely worn down and by the second use, they were almost completely worn away. (See photos of day-1 and day-2). At $20, this cost me $10 per use, DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT unless you only need it for one to two out-door dancing events.
