Yaktrax Diamond Grip - Full-Foot Traction on Ice, Snow, & Multi-Terrain Surfaces - Swiveling Diamond Bead Grip Points - Cold-Resistant Easy On/Off Elastic Upper Band

Exactly as described "Dimond Grippers" they are not huge nubs but enough for typical grip protection to keep you from slipping and falling. If you do serious hiking and need BIG grip these aren't "big". All it takes is that one spot of Black Ice to get you so I purchased these grippers. I've had these Diamond Grippers a couple years- during winters and used them for typical walking on a sloped road and icy -driveway and they worked well. After some usage the cable that holds them together can break or the nubs will wear down, so I've gone through a couple pairs of these, but no regrets. Actually there are a LOT of similar Nub grippers like this on the market to choose from.

I have used other cleats, but these are the best. They are easy to put on and take off, the fit is perfect and I'm not worried about slipping around on the ice. I live in Alaska and use these daily in the winter, weather it's getting back and forth to work, a visit to the grocery store, or just checking the mail. I am safe in these and I'm not worried about slipping and falling.

Got these for my husband. We both work delivery and he says that these cleats are the best he's ever gotten. I was a little skeptical when we opened them and the grips were completely round, not oval shaped like a boot, apparently that's what makes them great though. They have never slipped off and they're very durable. He did break one because he misstepped a curb, but believe me when I say that I'm amazed at how well they have stood up to the extreme pounding of the pavement that he does. He weighs over 250lbs and will throw a 120lb pkg over his shoulder and run with it, and he does this several times throughout his route. He has a heavy route and has anywhere from 180-330 stops, 6 days a week. It took a cement curb with over 350lbs of weight on it to break so, yes, I'm thoroughly impressed with these cleats. I ordered him a new pair, even though the price increased $11 because they are definitely worth the money.

These are excellent for the tasks I bought then to do: walking on slippery hilly sidewalks, covered with frozen-slush ridges. The pointy teeth are much more non-slip than the original YakTrax with the spiral-wire design. But there are some caveats: * I find them a big hassle to put on and off my heavy-rubber boots, so I just leave them on all winter. * When coming inside, you have to take the boots (or just the cleats) off at the door. They destroy floors. * I wouldn't use these on lighter-weight rubber boots -- they would be chewed up. * They only lasted one winter for me, with about 30 total days of slippery dog-walking. I left the boots, with these on, in the garage when warmer weather came, and the wires and links rusted badly, with one unit coming apart. Perhaps this corrosion would not have happened if I had taken the Trax off the boots, washed off the salty chemicals, and perhaps oiled them for storage, but you never know when winter is actually over. But the compan should use better materials on the wires and chain-links if they want customers to get multi-years of low-intensity use from them. The warranty is only 90 days.

like most of the country we have been in a deep freeze for about a week. light snow fell for two days, and since that time the thermometer has only made it to 32 for a few hours. walking in the snow was fine until a couple days ago when we had freezing rain and then freezing fog…when taking the garbage out proved a harrowing experience, I felt it was a good time to pull out the yaktrax. even though the windchill is 2 the dogs and I have been dying to get out and walk. I returned several “copy cat” products before stepping up to the yaktrax. even though I may only wear them a couple of days a year, I could tell many would break because of poor construction or inferior materials, others where just too small for work boots. I bought a pair of XXL yaktrax to fit over my size 13, 8” insulated boots and they fit perfectly, moreover, they worked to perfection. they allowed me to go places I would never consider and had zero concern - as sure footed as a yak (I suppose). we live on a bay off a huge lake that had frozen over…even out there my traction was excellent and I had a good walk with the dogs… I also like how easy they are to put on and take off. I used to wear an old pair of metal spiked, golf shoes when it got cold…but those aren’t insulated and it’s real easy to end up with wet feet. Nor do I want to spend several hundred dollars on a special boot. this way I can wear whatever I want to and be assured of traction. I do recommend sizing up one size if you are going over hiking or work boots. the construction of yaktrax is simple but robust. I think the rubber is strong and isn’t going to snap in a year like some I looked at. lastly, yaktrax aren’t going to impair your traction on a clean surface either and that’s what has sold me on them. I highly recommend these for anyone who likes to get out irrespective of what mother nature throws at you.

They work great on packed snow that is potentially slippery. When ordering if you want to put them on your shoes order the size that fits your shoes. If putting them on boots go a lot larger. As boots are made bigger than shoes of the same size. I have a size 8 boot and ordered an extra large. They are easy to put on and takeoff while wearing. Another review talked the durability. To ensure they last longer rinse them off after wearing, let them dry completely before putting away.

Best traction devices I've found. Yes they are expensive. I live in Alaska and company requires them. The ones they provide are useless for me. These well last me at least 2 years. Use them daily for about 6 to 7 months out of the year. They will mess up interior flooring but not near as bad as the spiked ones. Those destroy flooring

Makes walking safer on the ice, was a struggle to get them on at first but once on they were no problem.

Fabulous

These provided excellent traction on icy paths while still ok walking on hard surfaces like concrete. A little difficult to get on due to the stretch, helps to have two people doing it. Very easy to remove. The sizing guide was accurate foe women’s shoes but too small for men’s luckily Amazon offered swift exchange

Having an oversized snow boot (US 14) it was tricky to find cleats that would stretch over my boot, these are great as they offer a XXL for oversized boots. I would definitely go a size up when buying them!

Ne dure que quelques mois (3@4 max) le câble d acier du talon de la botte ,est trop petit en diamètre et s use trop rapidement les 2 ont cassé à la même échéance. Par contre traction extrême et efficace, trop cher pour la duré de vie très courte. Déçu !
