The best
I run and hike a lot of local trails that tend to get packed down and/or extremely icy due to lots of use, and some are quite steep. I'd tried other cheaper traction devices and they worked okay MOST of the time, but were never 100% trustworthy. Meaning, they'd slip on occasion or even fall off on steeper terrain. I've had none of those problems with my Kahtoonas. They grip even the hardest, steepest ice every time, and you don't even notice you're wearing them while running. Snug fit, very minimal extra weight, and the confidence to run and hike on ice and hard-packed snow as if it were the middle of summer. One of the best investments I've ever made.
Yes , I recommend this product

Broke on second use
The concept is really good. Lightweight ice spikes when full crampons aren't needed. Took them up Westkill in the Catskills during a particularly icy season and they performed OK. Second use in Catskills, I was quite remote and the plastic ripped on one of the connections to the metal, rendering them useless. Had a difficult time getting out. I cannot recommend based on durability. Best use is for icy city streets, not mountains.
No, I do not recommend this product
