good product, but probably won't last

I live on top of a steep two-mile dead-end hill where salt trucks do not come and people do not deem it necessary to shovel their sidewalks. These are very useful. They sometimes get salt trapped in the coils, but this is a rarity. All in all, they work extremely well. I have been using these daily for a couple months and they have not come off yet, they have not lost their traction yet, the rubber has not cracked or ripped, nor have they been so tight as to cause me discomfort. The down side: I have noticed a fair amount rust in the two months that I've used these. This is a problem, obviously exacerbated the all the salt out in front of the library where I work, but I'm sure that anyone who wears these in an urban environment will experience the same situation. Due to the rust, I fear that these will perhaps last me two seasons. Not bad, but not permanent. Buy a couple at a time to save on shipping.
