Ice cleats

Ice cleats for winter grip on ice and snow

Ice cleats provide a more secure grip on icy sidewalks, snowy walkways, and frozen forest paths. Whether you are an elderly person with impaired balance, a winter runner, a hiker, or a commuter, ice cleats reduce the risk of falls and allow you to move safely all winter long. There are models here that firmly enclose the shoe, are easy to put on and take off, and fit everything from low shoes to boots. Several models have replaceable studs and are CE-marked, which provides extra security during prolonged use. Choose between discreet ice cleats for urban environments and more grippy options for outdoor activities or icy runs. The right ice cleats on the right shoe provide stable footing without compromising walking comfort.

Choose the right model for your activity

For running on packed snow and ice, special running ice cleats provide even grip and a supple feel in your stride. For longer walks and hikes, robust hiking ice cleats are suitable, providing stability on varied surfaces. In the city, flexible forefoot ice cleats are practical when you want to be able to quickly step into shops. For stairs, bus stops, and light slippage, directional heel cleats provide extra support where the foot lands heaviest. If you want an all-round model, you can choose full-foot spikes with studs under both the forefoot and heel. Always base your decision on the size and shape of the shoe so that the anti-slip sole is stretched without twisting.
