YAKTRAX Pro Shoe Crampon

Disappointed

By Ranked #264 - Crampons November 28, 2008

I found that running in snow is not a good use for these. They fill up with snow quickly there in the NW. I'm now using screws in the bottom of my shoes cheaper and better.

The YakTrax website advertises the YakTrax Pro to be for running. From their 'YakFacts'-- "The Yaktrax Pro is new on the market and designed for the more active winter person. For example: a mail carrier, runner, outside worker or someone who faces winter conditions on a frequent basis. They are made of the more durable rubber blend and have a removable strap, should you go into deep snow. We have police officers, runners, crossing guards and many other professionals using the Pro.

The Yak Trax Pro was designed for stable walking on hard packed snow & ice, not winter running. You would have much better success if you used them for their intended purpose.
