        Comments about MICROspikes Traction System:

        Microspikes provide impressive traction on icy trails. They're relatively light, quick and easy to put on wearing gloves, stay in place all day, and I didn't slip on ice that felt steep while climbing Mt. Marcy and Phelps in the Adirondacks of NY. And, they don't catch on your gaiters or pants like regular crampons. I did encounter snow conditions that caused significant balling.

            Perfect in the ice and for snow that has melted and formed a glaze of ice on top.

              Q:

              Where's the sizing chart? I wear a men's size 11. What size will I need? Thanks

              • A:

                For this style, a size L fits Mens sizes 10.5-14. MICROspikes insulated boots have a slightly different sizing chart. Size L fits sizes 8.5-11, and XL fits sizes 11-13.5

                A:

                You'll find the sizing chart as an additional image below the main photo of the item. For a size 11, you'll want a large if you are referring to a shoe.
