they dont look so hot, but i slip them off once i get to my destination

Since I live in the world's capital for freezing rain, I have a complete collection of such products. In approximate order of effectiveness with yours, two other possible icy surface walkers are called 'Yaktraxs' and, my personal favourites, for the ice storm pros, 'StabilIcers'. The Yak items use coil springs and are easier on floors than the Icers, which will definately destroy anything indoors except carpeting.

Then we progress to mountaineering products....
