What Makes the Best Ice Cleats for Police Officers?
There's no single best ice cleat for every officer. The right choice depends on:
Your boots: standard duty boots or oversized, insulated boots
Where you work: city and suburban streets, interstates, or rural and off-road areas
Your calls: whether you're frequently going indoors
Wherever you work, reliability comes first. For police officers, the goal isn't just staying on your feet. You may need to move fast to get out of harm's way. Every stud has to be there when you need it, and your ice cleats have to stay securely on your boots.
Whatever your requirements, Winter Walking has a reliable, industry-leading option for you.

Best Ice Cleats for Officers in Cities and Suburbs
When you respond to a call, there's no time to take your ice cleats off before you go inside. Ordinary spiked ice cleats can damage floors, but the bigger problem for an officer is that they can be extremely slippery on hard, smooth floors. If you end up breaking up a fight, you have no footing.
Take them off, and you have no traction if the situation spills back outside onto the ice. The ice cleats below solve that with Transitional Traction™. Their tungsten carbide studs protrude just beyond the tread, so both the tread and the studs touch the surface. You keep your footing indoors and on the ice, and they're safe to wear while driving.
On interstates, rural roads, and accident scenes, you're mostly outdoors and rarely need to walk into a building. That's when you want the most traction possible. These ice cleats have longer 2mm tungsten carbide studs that bite into the hardest, coldest ice. Take them off before you go inside, because longer studs can damage floors and are slippery on smooth surfaces.
28 well-distributed 2mm tungsten carbide studs, the most aggressive ice cleat on this page
Patented Heel Spike and an aggressive, self-cleaning tread
Dual Pull Tabs and a strap material that stays easy to stretch in extreme cold
About driving: Winter Walking rates ICE BEAST™ HIGH-PRO as "Good" for wearing while driving. My own view is that it's a bit too aggressive for that, because the longer 2mm studs can catch on the pedals and wear them. Either way, you or your department's safety manager should make that call.
ICE BEAST™ ice cleats run large. Check the size chart and sizing tips before you order.
How can spiked ice cleats be worn indoors without damaging floors or being slippery?
Winter Walking Transitional Traction ice cleats have 1mm tungsten carbide studs that barely protrude beyond the tread, so both the tread and the studs touch the floor. That protects most floors and gives you far better grip on smooth, hard surfaces than ordinary spiked ice cleats. Use common sense: grinding or dragging your foot into the floor could still scratch it.
Are Transitional Traction ice cleats safe on all indoor floors?
No. Don't wear them on hardwood floors or floors made of soft materials.
Can you wear these ice cleats on indoor rugs?
Yes.

Crucial Ice Cleats Sizing Advice
You can go by the shoe sizes. However, the shoe or boot size can vary significantly for the same foot size. Option two below is a better way to select the correct size.
(OR)
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, which 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 when you receive them for two reasons.
You want to be ready for the bad weather. Be sure to find out you need a size exchange before the ice is on the ground.
I can't do free size exchanges for ice cleats that you have 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 a 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. Choose the bigger size if you plan to use your ice cleats on heavier winter boots.
I plan to use the ice cleats on 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 stay on your footwear and 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.
ICE BEAST Ice Cleats Sizing Tips
ICE BEAST Ice Cleats run large. Therefore, if you have a normal winter boot and your shoe size is close to the minimum of a size range, choose the next smaller size. If you have a large, bulky boot, stick with the size chart.
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.
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.

Ice Cleat Ankle Straps
Winter Walking Ice Cleats fit securely on most shoes and boots. Most people do not need or use the Ankle Strap. However, Ankle Straps add an additional level of comfort, knowing your ice cleats will stay on your footwear. It's more critical to consider Ankle Straps if you
walk through deep snow (especially wet snow), snow with a crusted surface, or mud because Winter Walking Ice Cleats are so comfortable that you may not notice one is missing until you've traveled some distance or, even worse, slip and fall; or
plan to wear them while you're using a snowblower because of the twisting often required while making a tight turn; and
are a senior citizen or a person with disabilities because retrieving an ice cleat that has come off and putting it back on your footwear might be almost impossible depending on the circumstances.
What Free Ice Cleats Size Exchanges Means
No store works harder than we do to get ice cleats sizing right on the first try. If you measure your footwear as I advise you to do in my Sizing Tips, Size Exchanges are rare. However, when Size Exchanges are necessary
We do not charge you additional freight to send out the correct size(s).
The customer is responsible for the freight to return the incorrect size(s).
Lastly, we immediately send out the correct size(s) so you're protected as soon as possible.
This policy is consistent with and exceeds competing stores Free Exchanges policies. If you have questions, please call me at 610-670-2549.
The last thing I want is for you to be disappointed in your purchase or feel that I mislead you or treated you unfairly. So, in the unlikely event you're not totally satisfied with your ice cleats or shoe traction devices purchased from me, I'll refund your money and pay for the return freight. Call me at 610-670-2549.
My satisfaction guarantee is unconditional. However, I'll ask you why you're not satisfied because I want to know if
there's a problem with a product I'm selling; and if
I can improve the description and presentation to avoid future misunderstandings and problems.
