>How wide are diemmes, namely their firenze and roccia vet models? Do the fit true to size?
They're true to size. Maybe a little wide, depending on what you view as average. iirc the roccia, firenze and new tirol fit the same and have the same last.

>Also heard their vibram wedge sole is really bad on anything slippery, how true is this?
They often use a morflex compound on their soles, which is insanely light, but I did find it to be marginally less grippy than a standard christy sole. I feel it could be caused by the lightness of the sole, or even the slickness of the compound, but it's not like I have evidence to back that up.

The ones on the Roccia's are often a different tread pattern, those small horizontal grooves rather than the thick zig zag pattern common to christy soles. Again anecdotal, I find them to be less grippy than the zig zag, but both are fairly shit on ice or in rough terrain.

In terms of slippery surfaces aside from ice, or something like oil, I've never had an issue with nearly any footwear outside of dress shoes with completely flat soles.
