Why Removable Ice Cleats Beat Studded Boots
Unless they have retractable spikes, studded boots have to come off before you go indoors or onto mass transit, because the studs damage floors and are slippery on tile, concrete, metal, sewer grates, utility hole covers, and station steps.
That's fine at your own front door. But what do you wear in the supermarket, the post office, or the pharmacy? And if you own a studded pair and a regular pair, which do you put on when snow is forecast for later, or freezing rain arrives without warning? Nobody carries two pairs of boots.
Walking on bare sidewalks also wears down studs, even the best tungsten carbide ones, and boots with permanent studs give you no way to avoid it.
The Advantages of Removable Ice Cleats
Studded Boots
Removable Ice Cleats
Going indoors or on transit
Boots have to come off
Ice cleats slip off in seconds, or stay on with Transitional Traction™
A less conspicuous, all-black alternative. Choose it if you:
want an all-black ice cleat that doesn't call attention to your footwear
need a size XS
prefer a flatter ice cleat, which some people with balance issues find easier to walk in
It has the same Transitional Traction™ as LOW-PRO, so you can wear it on most indoor floors and while driving. But LOW-PRO gives better traction: it has 26 studs instead of 16, a more aggressive tread, and Dual Material construction for longer wear. ALTRAGRIPS-LITE has been discontinued, and only some sizes remain in stock.
Want ankle straps? The Ankle Strap Kit fits ALTRAGRIPS-LITE too.
EASY SPIKE™ fits over most types of shoes and boots.
Sizes are for regular shoes or sneakers.

EASY SPIKE™ is a prosumer-quality ice cleat. It looks like the recreational ice cleats sold in hardware, sporting goods, and department stores, but includes features from Winter Walking's professional ice cleats that overcome many of their shortcomings. I still recommend professional-grade ice cleats whenever you can: HIGH-PRO costs only about $17 more.
Questions About Removable Ice Cleats
Are removable ice cleats better than studded boots?
For most people, yes. You can take them off before going indoors or onto smooth surfaces, the studs don't wear down on bare pavement, they're easy to carry, they fit over the shoes and boots you already own, and they cost far less than studded boots.
Do I have to take removable ice cleats off indoors?
Not with LOW-PRO, which can be worn on most indoor floors and while driving. HIGH-PRO and EASY SPIKE™ have 2mm studs and should come off before you go inside.
Can I carry them with me?
Yes. They're lightweight and fold to fit in a briefcase, backpack, glove compartment, or console, so you have them when the weather changes.

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.
