Applications:
These traction aids are recommended for workers exposed to winter conditions. They may help, among other things, to avoid injuries inflicted upon slipping and falling on ice. Ideal for outdoor activities, these soles may be used on ice as well as on snow.

Its one single piece design stretches to adjust to most types of footwear: it’s an easy donning in one movement. The improved webbed sole design enhances fit and function with a 360-degree spike pattern that provides more push and lateral grip. The tungsten carbide Ice Diamond™ spikes strategically located ensure a better grip on icy surfaces. The proprietary design features indeed two (2) spikes at the heel of the foot and four (4) spikes on the forefoot. Two (2) additional tungsten carbide Ice Diamond™ spikes are provided in the packaging if replacement is needed.

Fitting:

These spikes are available in four (4) different sizes. As a guideline, choose one size up your regular size if the traction aids are to be used on regular boots, but add two (2) foot sizes for bulky boots.

Due North® traction aids are long-lasting depending on the use one makes with them; lost or damaged spikes may be replaced.
