Kahtoola MICROspikes Footwear Traction for Winter Trail Hiking & Ice Mountaineering

These are very well made and provide great traction. Using them for muddy clay hiking in Hawaii and for slippery rocks. Highly recommended.

These are a bit heavy but extremely durable and they work amazingly well. I did a 10 mile hike with some friends on some hilly and ice covered trails this morning. They wore lighter but cheaper versions and they were still slipping and sliding. They were all jealous of mine and requested the purchase link. I felt extremely sure-footed. Ultra-light hikers wont like the weight, (14 oz for the pair) but you cant go wrong for day hiking. Also, my friends kept having to stop to readjust or put theirs back on but mine stayed on and secure during the entire hike.

Pack these when you expect to be traversing ice (especially if youre ascending/descending a mountain). You wont be sorry. Super easy to use and they will almost certainly save you from a nasty fall. Ive been out in the White Mountains a dozen times with them and theyve served me well. I am beginning to see the spikes getting a little worn down though ...

Great product

I got these for hiking in the Adirondacks. Theyre easy to carry in the included storage pouch. Very easy to put on and they really make it easy to handle icy and uneven terrain. I was able to climb steep rocks covered in ice and never missed a step. Hiked for several hours on 2 consecutive days and they never felt uncomfortable. They seem to be wearing well and are easy to clean. Im glad I got them!

Work great, traction is super in all ice conditions

These are really easy to use and get great traction on ice and in the snow. I would highly recommend them.

These worked fantastic for my hike up some soft snow areas and packed ice, but make sure you fit these *perfectly*. Another hiker in my group had ones that were too large or not properly equipped and both ended up falling off (somewhere) and we had to assist them for the rest of the hike. You do not want to be in a situation where you need these and lose them half way through the trip, it is extremely dangerous. I would also recommend pulling these off for large rocky areas or avoiding such areas if possible or else you can damage the spikes.They are easy enough to put on and take off that I would recommend just tossing them on your bag with a clip to keep them easily accessable.

Have used them more than Id planned during a miserable Minnesota winter. Easy on & off, and very secure.

I used these several times this winter. North east snow and ice on trails. Worked great. They gave me confidence to go out and get in nature even in the cool months
