FAQ: Ice Cleats & Action Traction Gear
1. What are ice cleats, and why use them?
Ice cleats are slip-on accessories you attach to boots or shoes to gain better traction on snow and ice. Our Action Traction cleats use grippy carbide studs that help you walk confidently in slippery conditions—whether you're hiking, shoveling the driveway, or walking your dog.
2. How long do ice cleats last?
Durable models can last for years and years. Replace them when studs are noticeably worn down or the rubber straps begin to weaken.
3. Are ice cleats safe to wear indoors?
Not unless they’re designed for transition. Cleats with exposed studs can damage indoor floors. Look for “transitional” versions like some Action Traction models that minimize slipping indoors.
4. How do I pick the right size and style?
Choose a pair based on your shoe size and activity. Larger volumes (like hiking boots) need sturdier, extra-stretch straps. Our Action Traction options come in sizes from small to large, and seasonal styles—from lightweight “run cleats” to full-coverage “walk & work” models.
5. Can I use ice cleats for running or sports?
Yes—there are specialized versions built for active use. “Run cleats” or athletic models give you grip on ice without slowing you down. Great for winter runs or dog walks.
6. How do I care for my ice cleats?
After using them on ice or salt, rinse off with fresh water and let them dry completely—this prevents rust and rubber breakdown. Store them in a dry place, away from heat, for season-to-season longevity.
7. Are they easy to put on and take off?
Yes. Most Action Traction cleats slip on over your shoe or boot, and the flexible straps make on/off a breeze—even when you’re wearing gloves.
