The Wait is over, the ICEtrekker Diamond Grip is now available.
I had a chance to get my hands on the newest Diamond Grip Ice Cleats, these are not your girlfriends Yak Trax. They have much more bite and have a rubber top that will surely hold to your shoes or boots. They have improved the design from the ULTRA TREKKERS which looked cool but tended to roll and not hold like these.
This new design has a Diamond bead that heavy duty like a link in a car snowtire, it is designed to spike into the Ice or Snow...
Here is the copy from the Manufacturer with my comments:
The greatest innovation in Ice Cleats is the Diamond Grip Chains
Great on Snow, packed Snow, and Ice High performance Ice Trekkers
Sturdy rubber sling designed to hold to your shoe and maintain flexibility in sub zero temperatures.
ICEtrekkers are the ultimate ice cleats
I think they said it all, they may have forgot it looks cook also!

How does it stack up to the other brands: Kahtoola Microspikes
Well they look similar, I am not getting the red, it looks like they are also twice the price.

Compared to: Yaktrax Pro Traction Cleats for Snow and Ice
These look a bit more light duty, I have put these on they are more for the Car to the front door and not for any activity or walking. Is it just me or does this look like "Hannibal Lectors" Mask!

Compared to: ICEtrekkers Shoe Chains NEW
These are a great deal for a Under $20 Chain with a quality rubber strap top that will stay on your shoes. These are not as grippy as the diamond grip but a nice price!
