Crampon Traction Cleats Anti-Skid Traction Grips Crampons Spikes 7 Point Cleats for Footwear for Walking, Jogging, Hiking, Mountaineering Ice Snow Grips

These cleats offer an inexpensive solution to a potentialy disastrous situation.Best of all they are easy to put on!

These cleats work great... if you can keep them on your shoes! Strap them on tight, right about the ball of your foot. Depending on your footwear, they may stay on fine- but my hiking boots didn't work well with the cleats. However, if you're looking for a quick solution from your car to the grocery store these will be perfect. Fairly aggressive cleat, you would want to take them off when entering a building so as to not damage the floors. Super easy to put on- velcro strip is not quite long enough for larger muck boots. Worn in snow, ice, and a combination. Kept me from falling down which is a big bonus in our bad winter weather.

I bought these for my daughter, my granddaughter and myself for Christmas! They're much smaller and easier to put on than the full foot. All three of us keep them in our car as a just in case thing. In Vermont you never know when the snow is going to turn to ice! I haven't hiked with them and probably won't! But they're great for safety and ease of putting on.

And my first review I gave the cleats two stars. I should raise it to 2.5 to 3 stars.Even though the cleats clog up they do work somewhat and keeping me from slipping on ice and snow. I just have to walk slowly.I do feel more secure wearing them, Especially going downhill slightly on snow and ice.Even clogged up with impacted ice, the cleats do dig into hard snow but not ice. You just can't walk around on ice, on these particular cleats.Sometimes there is ice hard ice just below the snow.For those conditions I'm going to try out some cleats that are just sharp plates that can't fill up.But these cleats I'm writing about now are useful and easy to put on. I should have given them three stars to begin with.The price is very reasonable. You have to make sure you make them very tight or they fall off.False killed 46,000 people last year, many probably in the snow. I slipped and almost fell 2 days ago on ice just getting out of my car. If I hadn't had my hands on the steering wheel and door I would have.Don't use your handicap ramp in the ice going downhill or up even with spikes. Use your steps.These cleats are good for light snow conditions which are very frequent. At least Amazon sells a variety of cleats that you can't buy in any stores around where I live including Walmart, Lowes Rural King.You've got to have something as even the parking lots are snowy and icy and you can fall.Thank you.

OK...The metal spikes are STURDY and really dig into the ice and snow. The major problem is the attachment style of these cleats. Even if you strap them down to the point of crushing your foot inside of your boot, they manage to loosen and you wind up walking out of them without noticing. I've tried this with a pair of soft topped "fur lined ankle boots", a pair of hard rubber toed traditional mid-knee snow boots, and a pair of generic low top hiking shoes. I've walked around my driveway and wore them while shoveling/clearing the driveway of snow. Each time I had to wind up scanning around to see where the cleat managed to fall off at. I tried them again, strapping them down as tight as possible and making sure they "stuck" properly while going to the Zoo. In the time it took to get out of my car, and walk across the parking lot I had lost one cleat. I doubled back and found that it made it a good 6 yards before abandoning ship. Not trudging through snow drifts or anything, just a few inches of snow mush in a flat parking lot.I really wanted these to work. It's so inconvenient to take off traditional style cleats and then have to keep them in a pocket while you go indoors. But these? These aren't it either, fam.

I'm a Texan and with this regular icing over once a year, this is an amazing product. We don't get ice for long enough periods to justify snow boots, but we still to get ice. Personally I live in a 2nd floor apartment and the stairs icing over has been a bit of a careful and dangerous issue to get down from.Then these came in the mail and oh. My. Goodness. Now *I* own the ice, not the other way around. There's even a satisfying crunch feel and sound as the steel teeth bite into the ice. I especially love how you can pop them on and off in seconds so you don't damage your car, home, etc. but then right back on just as quick when you need to head out! This is also good because many stores won't let you in with spiked snow boots on, but with these, no problem!Downside is the placement does feel a little awkward since your toes won't be able to touch down and put your feet in a slightly awkward position. These aren't meant for all day use, more for getting to/from your vehicle and traversing slippery parking lots. But for that they're absolutely perfect!!10/10

Tried using these in heavy snow and ice. They did help with traction, but no matter how hard I straped them down, they shift and eventually fall off my hiking boots.

Easy to use..tire rubber ...hard steel can walk on concrete for a short time.. goes through ice and snow
