> 3 dayWe took the kids to Prospect Park yesterday for sledding in the snow. I slipped these on right before we entered the park. They slipped on quite easily, despite the fact that I was wearing gloves while putting them on. I was able to get traction in the snow that was phenomenal; it was such a dramatic difference from wearing boots alone. I am considering getting their crampons as well. One thing Id like to mention is that walking on asphalt or concrete with these on is fairly uncomfortable, and Ill bet it contributes to early wear on the product. So, while walking in the neighborhood I had to seek out the patches of snow and avoid the plowed/shoveled paths. Regarding sizing, I have a size 9 W foot and the size medium microspikes fit perfectly. Also, I cannot comment on the durability of the product because I only used it once. But I unreservedly give this product 5 of 5 stars.

> 3 dayLasts three seasons in Michigan. I am 75 years old and would not clear the snow off my angled drive way without these on my boots. Will still slip on black ice so be careful.

> 3 dayWell built and really work. I’m 6’1” and weigh 240#. These held me on a fairly steep (45°) ice, incline. I was skeptical but they worked perfectly. They’re a little more expensive than some other brands but spikes are longer & sturdy.

Greater than one weekI dont know how I lived without these! These are easy to use and work better than products without the spikes. They have saved me more than once.

> 3 dayI hike a lot in the Pacific Northwest and we get a lot of spring melts from the mountains. These are amazing! Grip the snow and ice. I prefer the black over red, just for blending with my gear.
