Key featuresexpand_more

Yaxtrax believe that snow and ice should not affect your performance and active lifestyle outdoors which is why they have created these innovative Pro Ice Grips. They feature 360° of grip thanks to a patented skid lock coil system which allows you to move across snow and ice safely and effectively. They are made using a natural rubber blend which is flexible and durable, allowing you to move almost naturally in tricky conditions.

These innovative ice grips use abrasion resistant steel coils rather than spikes to improve grip on snow and ice. This feature is combined with an ultra-lightweight design to create a comfortable and practical sole. A removable performance strap ensures that they remain secure and solid on across your footwear whilst a heel tab makes them easy to get on and off.

Broke within 8 miles

As with the other review, mine broke on the 2nd wear. It's a shame as they are a great product. Blacks were fantastic & refunded.

Broke after 2 wears

For the first two walks I thought they were great. However, the rubber snapped when putting them on for a third time. Really disappointed as it had in initally it seemed like a great product. Don’t buy!

I've owned two pairs...

I've owned two pairs of these (because I lost the first pair) and found them to be extremely effective in the snow and ice. Recently used them for a whole week in Iceland and they were a life-saver. Would thoroughly recommend them. I'm a size 13 UK and the XL's fit fine. I even accidentally wore my partner's M size and they didn't snap so they have a lot of elasticity.

Great idea, shame about the quality

Broke on the third outing. Absolutely brilliant for two outings, but at £9 per wearing, really not good value.
Dear manufacturers, please address this problem. This product performs well until it breaks.

Got them the day before we had snow fall in November. Felt safe and secure walking to and from work in icy conditions.

Beware... poor quality item

Great as long as they lasted - all of 3 trips out! Returning and looking for another option to buy for next winter. Highly *not* recommended.

Broke - beware

Broke on second use. Same as others have said. Got a refund.

Flawed product

I am not surprised at the other reviews here - I wish I'd seen these before purchasing this item.
It seemed great at first and stopped me slipping on snow and ice. But soon snapped, as other people have pointed out (the rubber straps broke).
Just a bad design it seems - the thin rubber goes underneath the boot and therefore gets walked on. It inevitably breaks and leaves the grips un-usable. Other online reviews say the same thing (plenty of Amazon!). No point trying another pair. Don't purchase is my advice! Hoping for a refund.

Mine snapped too!

I bought a pair over Christmas - like others, one of them snapped after only 2 outings. Left me in a bit of a predicament at the top of a very icy hill! Luckily no bones broken. Disappointing product. Not recommended.

Broke during first wear

As several others have said... very poor quality and broke practically immediately. Shame, they actually gripped on the snowy hillside very well - if only more robust they would have been great.

Poor product - lasted an hour before breaking!

My previous review posted 10th Jan seems to have been removed.
I wore these for an hour and both left and right boot thin rubber straps snapped.
Not fit for purpose. Have reported to Blacks and asked for refund. Seems they are still selling them.... and no doubt will block or remove this review too! No more Blacks purchases for me. Avoid these pro grips - complete waste of money.

Disappointing

Bought these to use during recent bad weather . Initially very impressed as I was able to walk on icy pavements without fear of slipping . However after only three outings the rubbers straps have snapped on both shoes, rendering them useless ! Very disappointed as I thought they were the answer to the severe winter conditions !

Very flimsy and the strap snapped on second use.

Very flimsy and the thin rubber strap snapped on second use on one. Seem to be not fit for purpose, as other customers have pointed out :(. Very disappointed. Hoping for a refund without any quibbles.

Brilliant on icy pavements to prevent falls.

Great to have handy for the occasional "Beast From The East". Just used mine bought 10 years ago. Not used every winter in UK, but great to have when the snow has melted and frozen to ice on pavements. Also great in snow in fields. You do have to remember NOT to wear in shops or on home flooring - it works like roller skates!

Poor Quality

Poor quality! Purchased two pairs and mine only lasted for three outings before the rubber and spring snapped. I might consider purchasing another pair but after looking at reviews on other sites I probably won't. Shame as I initially thought they were excellent.

Just what I wanted

Product as described... haven't used them yet since we haven't had any snow so can't fully review them.
