Review on Vdealen Hiking Boot Crampons with 19 Teeth, Stainless Steel Anti-Slip Traction Ice Cleats, Slip-Resistant Snow Ice Spikes, Crampons, Ice Snow Grips for Walking on Ice Snow by Darnell Evans

I really wanted to like these cats but they are not very good. The design is simple and they are easy to attach. The spikes are strong but the rubber is too soft. I went through two pairs and the same thing happened to both; One of the loops holding the wire mesh broke under tension while descending a steep slope. I sent them back with no problem but the second pair suffered the same fate. Unfortunately, the return period has expired, so I'm sticking with this one. Maybe I can set something permanent, but it doesn't matter. I really shouldn't. If they redesign and use a stronger rubber or other material I'll consider them but don't recommend them just yet.
