Heavy Duty Ice Cleats Definition

Winter Walking Heavy Duty Ice Cleats Heavy-duty ice cleats have no set definition. When people shop for heavy-duty ice cleats, their primary consideration may be
  • effectiveness;
  • ability to stay on your boots and shoes;
  • durability;
  • ability to use on large bulky boots; or
  • a combination of all these capabilities.
The Winter Walking Ice Cleats I recommend are heavy-duty, professional-quality ice cleats that meet all the definitions above. Here's why.
Effectiveness

My recommended ice cleats provide unparalleled traction on ice, packed and loose snow, slush, and black ice. Many ice cleats claiming to be Heavy-Duty are not, and specifically state they are not, effective on all slippery surfaces. Therefore, when you take a step wearing Winter Walking Ice Cleats, you don't have to worry about the type of slippery winter surface you're about to step on.

You may need to balance effectiveness with practicality depending on

  • where you intend to use your ice cleats;
  • your physical limitations;
  • Non-Sparking / non-conductivity requirements; or
  • your unwillingness to put up with some of the possible inconveniences that come with wearing ice cleats.
Ability to Stay On and Aligned on Footwear

Even otherwise excellent heavy-duty ice cleats are ineffective if they come off your boots and shoes, or slide out of position. In both cases, the studs aren't making contact with ice.

Depending on the circumstances, you may not notice you lost an ice cleat or that an Ice Grip is misaligned until you slip and fall. Furthermore, even if you notice you lost an ice cleat or that one has slipped out of place, how do you fix the situation standing out in the middle of an icy parking lot?

The bottom line is that heavy-duty ice cleats need straps that keep them on and aligned on your footwear. The ice cleats I recommend accomplish those goals.

Durability

Many people and businesses search for heavy-duty ice cleats because they're tired of replacing their ice cleats every year or few months. It's a valid reason because of the cost. You don't have Ice Cleats while you're replacing the broken pair.

However, the most important benefit of durable Ice Cleats in reliability when you need it most. You want all the studs to be there and in good working condition when you take a step. You want straps you can rely on not to break at the worst possible time.

No one can guarantee Ice Cleats won't break. I can promise that you won't find more durable heavy-duty ice cleats that minimize the risk of breaking.

Note: Regardless of which Ice Cleats you choose, always inspect them before you put them on.

You Won't Find Better Heavy-Duty Ice Cleats

These ice cleats all provide excellent traction on ice, deep and packed snow, slush, and black ice.

You'll be safer no matter what the wintry mix or how cold the ice. They all have

  • long-lasting, well-distributed Tungsten Carbide Studs;
  • the all-important Heel Spike, and
  • aggressive, self-cleaning treads.
They Stay Securely on Your Shoes and Boots

They have advanced, patented features that keep them in place but still easy to put on and take off.

They're All Durable

All recommended ice cleats are heavy-duty with tough, chemical-resistant straps and tungsten carbide studs. HIGH-PRO and LOW-PRO have patented Dual Material Construction for ultimate long wear.

My recommended ice cleats may initially cost twice as much as the cheap brands. However, they keep you several times safer and last several times longer.

Falling on the ice is serious business. Many of my customers look for heavy-duty ice cleats after the serious, life-changing injuries have occurred. They'll be the first to tell you that paying a little more for ice cleats that have the best chance of preventing injuries from falling on the ice is the best investment you ever made.

Crucial Ice Cleats Sizing Advice

  1. You can go by the shoe sizes. However, the actual size of the shoe or boot can vary significantly for the same foot size. So option two below is a better way to select the correct size.
    (OR)
  2. Measure the length of your shoe or boot. Measure the bottom from the tip of the sole to the base of the heel. Measure on "the flat", don't wrap around. We want the length. Then find the size on the sizing chart with the Footwear Length Range that spans the length of your footwear. Measure carefully. Measure twice. Our goal is to get you the right size on the first try to make you as safe as possible as soon as possible.
Ice cleats sizes are unisex and fit men's and women's shoes and boots according to the sizing charts.
Always try your ice cleats on as soon as you receive them for two reasons.
  1. You want to be ready for the bad weather. Don't wait until the ice is on the ground to find out you need a size exchange.
  2. I can't do free size exchanges for ice cleats that have been used because I can't resell them.
FAQs

What should I do if the length of my shoe or boot is extremely close to the breakpoint of a size range? Should I choose the next larger size? For example, assume the length of your boot or shoe is just under 12½". You look at the specific size chart for ice cleats you're buying. Assume for this example the Medium has size range of 11½" to < 12½" and a Large is 12½" to < 13". For regular shoes and work shoes, stick with the smaller of the two sizes you're considering. If you're planning to use your ice cleats on heavier winter boots, choose the bigger size.

I'm planning to use the ice cleats on both my shoes and boots. But they're different lengths. What should I do?

If the difference in length is small, order the size for the larger boots. Purchase the optional Ankle Strap to use when you use the ice cleats on your shoes. The ankle strap will make sure they stay on. If the difference in length is significant, you may need two sizes of ice cleats. That's because you want the ice cleats to be snug, so they not only stay on your footwear but also stay aligned.

I have a large company. There's no way I can measure everyone's footwear.

I understand. Go by shoe sizes. I'll be happy to exchange sizes later on. However, please make sure you haven't used the ice cleats outdoors.

Is the measuring technique 100% accurate?

Nope. It's accurate most of the time. Measuring is far superior to go by shoe size.
