Grip Spray for Shoes

I recently bought a 'limited release' shoe but I'm very disappointed with it since the grip/ traction is really bad on dusty courts compared to other 'performance' basketball shoes that I have. It somewhat collects more dust than normal in between the grooves of the sole making it very slippery to play in. I need to clean them before every game and often need to wipe off the dust in games which is very annoying.

I don't want to get rid of the pair just yet, so wondering if anyone has used those grip sprays that are available online? Any that you would recommend?

Use cheap hair spray, both last about 5 minutes max.

In the olden days, we just used to wipe the soles with our sweaty hands. Got rid of the dust from the shoes and got rid of the sweat on the hands.

You modern guys expect so much :)
