Designed to give you grip whilst everyone around you slips and slides, the Mountain King Ice Grippers are an excellent way of gaining purchase on snow and tricky ice. The flexible plastic plate simply straps to the instep of whatever footwear you are wearing and the screw-like spikes dig into the icy surface to stop you sliding away.
Using compact screws the Ice Gripper is easy to maintain as the screws can just be replaced when they wear down, meaning that you have many winters of safe stepping to come. With the short spikes, the Mountain King Ice Gripper is perfect for slippy pavements, roads, low level country walking and to traverse icy patches on the hills in winter conditions. They are not a replacement for crampons and should not be used on steep terrain in full winter conditions.
