“Excellent traction on ice & packed snow”

“Turns out I needed the next size up for these so take Sierra's advice to add a half size seriously! I bought a waterproof version of this last year, and that's my only concern about this model. It doesn't appear to have any more water resistance than other running shoes, making it (like them) only suitable for dry days. On returning these, I switched to the similar model that is water-resistant and has gaiters to keep out snow. (See separate review.) I'm only not recommending this because I can't imagine needing studded shoes for icy conditions without also needing water resistance. Apart from that, they are very light and comfortable.”
