1 out of 5 stars Stablicers work better for me!   April 1, 2009
M. Eve (Seattle, WA USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I went through 2 pairs of these hiking on snowy trails (one I purchased, the second set was given to me by the store after the first set broke early on). Worked great the first outing, then started to slip off by the second outing. I was having to adjust them every fifty yards because they would not stay in place on my boots. I tried making a velcro strap like the 'Pro' versions, but that didn't help. Then the flimsy rubber/plastic broke.

I eventually spent almost 3 times as much for Stablicers. Worth every penny. 4 icy day hikes with them, and no trouble at all. Heavier, but they really work.



5 out of 5 stars They're a lifesaver   March 25, 2009
Scott See (White Salmon, WA USA)
Very easy to put on. They don't get all knotted up like some cheap ones I had years ago. Great traction.


4 out of 5 stars no more sliding   March 21, 2009
snowman (Illinois, USA)
The yak traks are very helpful when crossing sidewalks, and streets. You still have to be a litle careful when walking but they give you more confidence. They do prevent slipping on ice coated driveways


4 out of 5 stars Don't Slip No More   March 19, 2009
Richard E. Locke
Once I got the devices onto my New Balance Shoes they really worked. No more slipping when getting the paper - which is the reason I bought them in the first place.

The only cons were untwisting them from the package. What do I mean? They are twisted/compressed for shipping purposes. It is like undoing a snarl. Once you get past the unsnarling, then you have to figure out how to pull them over your the soles of your shoes.

However, these things work and I highly recommend them. Oh yes, I do not remove them from my NBs I just put the shoes on when there are slippery conditions. I don't want to wrestle them off the shoes and then have to put them back on.

But, as I wrote before, they really work and I would buy them again. No more falling down!



5 out of 5 stars Yaxtrax made better   March 14, 2009
Harry R. Sanders
Had the original Yaxtrax, and had occasional issues with them coming off particularly in tough terrain. These solve the isse and are more robust too.
