I've gone through 4 adhesives and ~200 screws every one has fallen out.

I give up.

I use the Yaktrax Pro. They slide over the boot and have a strap as well. They have never come off.
The bottom are coils over the rubber. The coils are not very aggressive but do give great traction very well. I like these as I don't feel like I am walking on spikes. My whole foot is covered. They don't get hung up on the foot well of the snow machine either.
I never take them off. They stay on even when I am clearing the snow around the house.
I had them for over 10 years and finally had to replace this season.

The thing I don't like with some cleats, is they tear up the wooden floor inside your hut.

I picked up a pair of the Kahtoola Micro Spikes from Sail today, (NOT CHEAP) at $79.99 a pair but they fit over my size 14 boots the best and they seem to be well made.

Now if old “Momma Nature” would be so kind as to grace us with ice I could try them out...😆

Thanks for the input everyone !

Dollarama has ice cleats for sale @ $3.50. Beside wallyland on Yonge street.

Single strap velcro.

Worth the money.

I bought a couple of pairs of those to keep in our vehicles. Used them a couple of times on the lake last year when I somehow misplaced my good ones and they worked surprisingly well. Only drawback is they just cover the ball of your foot and not the heel.

Thats why I bought them. Back up !

Nice to hear that they work well. Better something on the feet,than nothing

The HT cleats are on my Titans. They fit well.

I got them at CT for a discount.

They are good. Mine are 5 years olds and still in good shape. Yes they are a little heavier than other brands.
