Review on ICETrekkers Shoe Chains - Enhance Winter Traction (1 Pair) by Draven Invert

I am particularly pleased with the ICETRekkers shoe chains which can be used as a general traction aid in icy conditions. I use them when clearing snow from my paved driveway and driveway and when walking a few blocks to a mailbox when the track is covered in snow and ice. I find ICETRekker's shoe chains offer good traction (except on particularly cold and slippery ice), easy to put on and take off, comfortable to wear and dry quickly. I also have a couple of Yaktrax Run traction aids. Yaktrax walking aids have cleats (similar to golf shoe cleats) under the ball of the foot. Yaktrax Run traction aids offer better traction on very cold and slippery ice, but Yaktrax Run traction aids are a little more difficult to put on and take off, less comfortable when walking on paved surfaces, and the Velcro takes a little longer to dry. On a positive note, when walking or running in deep snow, especially hard "hooked" snow, the Yaktrax Run's Velcro strap is very helpful in keeping the device on the shoe. I haven't tried ICETRekker's shoe chains in deep snow yet, but I suspect the snow will tear them off. When I need to improve traction on most surfaces I use ICETRekkers shoe chains.
