Review on Stainless Steel Ice Cleats With 11 Spikes, Upgraded Version For Anti-Slip Traction On Hiking Shoes And Boots During Hiking, Fishing, Walking, And Mountaineering by James Khalifa

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not for snow hiking

I bought 3 pairs of these for me and my friends to go hiking with. Within the first 5 minutes, the large was slipping off my size 10 hiking shoe and they were tight. My other friends with XL had the same issue with shoes size 11 and 13. Regularly doing a "spike check” to adjust them back, we noticed spikes already having been ripped out. We are on a knee high snow hike walking up Mt Elbert and they almost lost every spike after 5 hours. The rubber being able to stretch is probably what allowed the spikes to detach so easily. I would not suggest these for Mt Elbert South entrance during winter. I would go with a hard plastic attached spike next time
