For the last couple of winters I have been screwing sheet metal screws in to my running shoes. It makes a world of difference. When the ice is all gone, I can take the screws out or just let them wear down. I put screws in shoes on the PCT (Pacific Crest Trail) before heading into the Sierras. It worked great on ice or trail but it made walking on rock more slippery.
Anyway it costs a dollar or two in screws depending on how many you put in and then you need a five dollar screw driver that can screw in hex screws. On The Goat’s site, I see there is a company selling this arrangement for 40 dollars.
