"Just the ticket!" - Review of 32North STABILicers SPORT

I needed something to improve my traction on snowy trails. After they've been packed down, wearing snowshoes is definitely overkill. However, on the steeper sections, or where the trail slopes off to one side, it can get icy, and you need something to give you a little more grip. These are just the ticket. You pop them on your running shoes and you're good to go. They're light, flexible, and thin: you don't really notice you've got them on at all. (Except you don't slide around!) I'd also like to mention how good the 32north service is. My five month old puppy got hold of one and chewed it into oblivion. I emailed 32north, and they sent me a replacement for free. My only gripe? I'm not convinced about the sizing. I'm a size 10, and ordered the 'M' version (size "8-10"). This is very snug on my running shoes, and doesn't fit over the toes of my hiking boots. Maybe I should have ordered the 'L' size ("10.5-12.5"), but I was worried that the larger version might be loose and slide around on my shoes.
