Great outdoors, hazardous indoors April 16, 2008
I bought these for my mother. She wore out one set of the less expensive model, and lost one of the second set. The less expensive models don't stay on the shoes as well, so we bought these to compare.
These certainly stay on. In fact, they stay on so well that it creates a problem. These work very well on snow and ice, but they're dangerously slippery indoors, especially on linoleum.
Since they're so hard to remove, my mother has decided that they're part of the shoe, and she carries an extra pair of slippers that she changes to as soon as she steps through the door. With the previous ones, she'd slip them off the shoe and put them in her jacket pocket.
These are much better suited to heavy and consistent use rather than occaisional emergencies.
A dog walker's winter dream March 27, 2008
This is my second pair of Yaktrax. I love the Pro style. The velcro strap keeps them on your boots. I lost one of the regular Yaktrax and didn't even know it until it was too late. The Yaktrax are essential on icy walks to keep you from slip slidin' away--especially it you're being towed along by a dog or two.
Such a great invention! March 10, 2008
These YakTrax make a HUGE difference when walking in snow and ice. I'm on crutches after hip surgery and have been able to trust my recovery to them when I am out crutching about on all the snow & ice this winter!

Yaktrax Pro work better on ice, and snow covered ice, than anything else I have tried. They don't slip on snow covered ice like spikes do. They are easy to put on and take off. They stay securely in place while in use.
A great product at a fair price!
Fan-trax-tic! February 14, 2008
I have owned a pair of these for over year during which time we've had two major ice storms as well as snow and lesser amounts of ice. The Yaktrax have held up wonderfully. The one time that I've slipped on ice it was because I had been too lazy to put them on. Lesson learned! At least two co-workers have purchased their own pair of Yaktrax after seeing mine.
No, these aren't meant to be worn INSIDE, they are for OUTSIDE use in foul weather. From the website: "The Yaktrax Walker and Yaktrax Pro are not for use on gravel, concrete or sanded roads. Avoid surfaces such as marble, tile or any non-icy, non-snowy surfaces when wearing the Yaktrax Walker or Yaktrax Pro." It takes less than two minutes to put both on and even less time to take them off or one can simply have another pair of shoes to slip into. I don't find it a "hassle" either way, especially when one considers the benefits of using Yaktrax.
I would recommend buying a size larger if you will be using these on boots. I find it a little bit of a struggle to put them on my hiking boots. If the weather is going to be bad for an extended period, I tend to just leave the Yaktrax on my boots and switch to another pair of shoes.
