"The DIAMOND GRIP ICEtrekkers are absolutely amazing!"

I’ve had some near death experiences running on icy paths in the cold winter months and even in the spring when I head into the higher elevations.  ICEtrekkers created the ideal slip on traction that stays on while running.  The rubber wraps around the most important parts of the shoe to give a snug fit that stays on at very high speeds.

The group that I run with has had several different traction attachments throughout the last few years.  The frustration was that they would come off and not stay fastened.  We tried everything one guy even put screws in the bottoms of some shoes to try and have traction.  That worked until the screws started poking him in the bottom of his feet.   Many devices are made for walking and just don’t have the durability for winter trail running.

The DIAMOND GRIP ICEtrekkers are absolutely amazing!  I ran in very icy conditions up an ice packed road for 4 miles.  The elevation gain was about 1000 vertical feet.  Then on the way down I went all the way down at about a 6:30 mile.  I kept looking down wondering if they were still on.  My buddies were a few minutes behind me because their traction came off and they fell.  The DIAMOND GRIP works well because it does not cover the traction of the shoe.  Instead it works with the traction of the shoe gripping the sole and the icy path.  I even found a solid frozen spring near one of my favorite trails and tried to force the traction to slip.  They don’t feel weird on a normal dirt trail without snow or ice either.

I used to be nervous running on ice packed roads. The ICEtrekkers gave me tons of confidence on the very iciest cold days of this winter season.   view article

YakTrax are all the rage in Bozeman, and they’re fine for mild hardpack; but if you
want to take your traction up a notch, pick up a pair of Diamond Grip Ice Trekkers.
These lightweight yet sturdy mini-crampons will grab the slickest of ice and rockhard
snow, keeping your feet secure and your mind at ease. I tried them out on
the slicker-than-snot M and Drinking Horse trails, climbing with confidence and
sprinting downhill without fear. The rubber sling slips over your shoe or boot easily,
and hundreds of biting edges keep you glued to the ground. A wide finger-loop
means you can put them on with gloved fingers. I’ve had trouble with other brands’
attachment points coming loose during application and removal, but the Diamond
Grips stayed together for over a dozen hard hikes. My new winter essential for hikes
and runs on well-trodden trails. — mike england   view article
