Shoes and Boots: Traction Devices.

Walking on non-technical snow or ice? These little gizmos slip easily onto your footwear to reduce the odds of slipping. They stow easily in your jacket or pack pocket when not needed. I used in the alley to throw garbage in the garbage bin but the alley in winter is covered with ice.  Instead of slipping or sliding on the ice, I walk easily using the little gizmos with confidence.

• Natural rubber, wound with coils to create hundreds of biting edges to grip snow and ice.
• Removable performance straps.
• Provides traction through 360 degrees, for security when traversing gentle slopes.

Look at the devices at Mountain Equipment Co-op or Lee Valley (and many other stores have the same or similar product).
