These were great for walking through snow with ice underneath. They gripped well. The velcro strap across the top of the foot helps hold them on without being so tight it was annoying.I wouldn't wear spikes this serious on pavement, but for icy and crusty trails they are wonderful.

ヒルサウンドは見た目のカッコ良さもさることながら、チェーンスパイクの爪が少し長めなこともあり購入しました。グリップが上がり安心感が高まって満足です。甲部分はベルクロで固定できるのでホールド感も高く機能性、実用性に優れたオススメのチェーンスパイクです。

場所によってはそこそこの積雪があったが、チェーンスパイクからアイゼンに履き替えることなく、使えた。歩行では不安に感じることなく信頼性を実感できた。

We do a lot of hiking and walking in y together winter and these are by far the best crampons we have. They grip very well in all conditions and most importantly they never fall off your boot like other brands tend to. I have gone through 3 other brands and would recommend these over anything else I have had.

The grip is tremendous. I can easily walk across a variety of otherwise sketchy surfaces. I tried these on thick, uneven ice, glaze ice, dry pavement, packed snow, loose snow, and every combination of that, and I had no problems. I even tried a jog across the ice and it worked with no problem, I was quite impressed! I wear them mainly on my running shoes. For women's size 9.5, I am using a medium. I'm glad I did NOT go with a large because I have to stretch the medium as high up on the shoe as I can in order to get a tight, stable platform on the bottom. So I would say they are true to size if not a little large. I have had no problems taking them on and off my shoe, and the velcro strap gives added security. I'm really pleased with this purchase; it has allowed me to continue my outdoor walking year-round in any conditions! I made a mistake, however, in that I failed to brush off the snow after my last use. I noticed some rust already starting to form. Yikes! So just be sure to care for them properly: dry them off after every use and they will last a long time.

Awesome traction. Love these, easy to put on winter hiking boots, walking boots. Although - I tried these on my size 9 all-season hiking boots and they were too big. I feel like I can walk on anything. Comes with good quality canvas bag.

This is awesome set of micro spikes I've been really putting them through the paces. I passed on a highly recommended brand because I picked these up on sale.The only reason for a 4 star instead of 5 is the name. These are not crampons they are micro spikes. Two different types of traction. These will be great for improved traction on ice. Crampons are used for climbing ice or hiking more extreme winter trail conditions

I seldom take the time to write reviews- even for items that I like very much. I have to make an exception for these AMAZING trail crampons. I walk my dog daily off-leash on trails through local nature preserves. The last few weeks the trails have iced up terrible to the point where I was forced to bushwack off trail because it was impossible to walk it in regular hiking boots.... I even had to humiliate myself by sliding down inclines on my butt!I've seen others walking the trails with slip on traction devices like YakTrak and Kahtoolie so I decided it was time for me to join the club. I went to a local outdoor outfitter store and they had both brands but so late in the season nothing in my size. That's when I turned, reluctantly, to Amazon and started reading reviews. Despite my worries about not being able to try a pair on for fit before purchasing, I chose the Hillsound Trail Crampon on the strength of the reviews and because they appeared a bit more "aggressive" than the others. I ordered Size Medium as it was recommended for my shoe size on the fitting chart.As soon as they arrived I tried the on over my size 9 1/2 OBOZ hiking boots. They were easy to put on, fit snuggly and the spike plates were centered perfectly under the ball and heel of my foot with no fiddling or adjustment. That afternoon the pooch and I went for our walk on the same trails that were literally impossible for me to walk just the day before... and I actually started giggling because I was so amazed at the difference. Effortless walking on crazy slick ice... in fact easier to traverse than the muddy spots between iced trail. They are light, comfortable and though we were only out for a little more than an hour I could have easily walked in them all day... I hardly felt them on my feet. I went out with the dog again for a longer walk this morning and I am even more convinced. They didn't shift on my shoes walking up or down rocky inclines and were flexible enough that they moved as one with my hiking boots. I felt secure and confident in every situation- wet ice, hard ice, ascents and descents... wether icy or not. They felt completely transparent on my feet and I had no problem maintaining a natural stride... in fact I think I walk a bit faster with them on. I haven't used other makers products, but have crossed paths with YakTrak users who commented on how I have a serious set of spikes- if they only knew how easy they are to take on and off, how comfortable they are and how well they work. KUDOS!

I had bought this to work in my yard during winter. we have a major slope on our driveway and the garage. It was a major hassle to clean the driveway as it was quite slippery and there was no way anyone would be able to walk up on the slope on the ice if without this device. I tried them and surprise...i was walking on ice with no slippage and was satisfied with it. I was able to clear the snow around my driveway in no time with all the confidence that I am not going to fall and break my back over the slippery road. The product itself looks extremely strong with strong metal spikes. I was quite comfortable walking on the tar road, however it was quite slippery if you were to walk inside on tiles or some other internal surface. these are meant for outdoors so out there they are the king. I am pleased with Amazon service as well, as initially I had ordered Large size thinking it to be enough for my size 12 - 14 shoe and it turned out to be small. Amazon took the initiative to collect it back via UPS and return the money with no questions asked. I ordered again for X-Large and they fit quite nice on my shoes and I love them. I have not used them on trails or anywhere else but i don't think that be an issue as once you wear them and start to walk on the road or gravel or dirt i can hardly notice it and it has well structured metal plates to balance the load evenly and those spikes don't hit you back on your feet. I would surely recommend this product during winter time.

Bought these as my mother's christmas present. It wasn't a very hard winter but the few times there was ice/snow to deal with on her day hikes she said these worked perfectly. She has arthritis which sometimes makes it annoying to get them on (specially in the cold) but other then that getting them on/off isn't a problem.
