Most roofers walk on the roof by using their hands to grip the roofing material and then lifting their feet to move. If you are a first-time roofer, you should not attempt to walk on a steep roof. You can practice walking on a slanted surface by using a ladder. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid walking on ice or in windy conditions. RAX Wild Wolf Mid Venture is a good choice for roofing shoes, as they are designed with an excellent grip and protection against the elements.
