how is this shoe on ice? because we get some wicked ice storms where i live, and it's hard to get around. so i'm looking for a shoe that will handle well on slick ice, and not look much different than a tennis shoe.

After my last expedition ended in July, I had to travel over the Gondogoro La (google it) in the Karakoram, Pakistan wearing these shoes. Honestly, traveling over icy rock and hard snow in these things was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life. The rubber on these shoes are excellent for rock but do NOT work well in ice or snow. Get some crampons, for the sake of Pete.

No shoe does really well on ice. I thick and beefy vibram sole boot will do okay, but otherwise get some spikes that go on over any shoe to run around on the ice! Sticky rubber isn't sticky on ice!
