I had a chance to discover the essential utility of microspikes on a hike this past January. Our winter was unusually mild, so the mountain trails were melted off in many areas making snowshoeing not possible. Wanting to get out anyway, I headed up in hiking shoes and brought along my Kahtoolas in the pack. As I progressed up the mountain, trail conditions varied between dry, m...

I have used my YakTrax in the snow and ice on the road for years and been satisfied, but this winter when I started hiking up in the snowy and icy mountains I discovered that I needed something with more bite. My new MICROspikes made me feel as if there were no ice at all. They fit snugly and do not shift on my boots at all, even after many hours. I loved my new MICROspikes ...

We ordered two pair of the MICROSpikes as Christmas presents for ourselves and our first impressions are positive as we look at the product in hand. Now all we need is Mother Nature to cooperate and give us some Snow & Ice to try them out in the woods. On the not so positive side, we have found that putting them on is not quite as easy as the product VDO would have you believe...

The micro spikes are a huge plus when hiking in the ice and snow. Best use in day hikes with light pack and medium to strenuous terrain. I really love these spikes. The only problem was when wet snow packed in the front are of the spikes.

Q I wear a 10.5 boot.. Do i order a M or L ? Will the L stay on ? Will the M be to tight?
A

I also wear a 10.5 and got the larges so they would work for my larger winter boots. They fit my regular shoes, but I would go with the medium if you are wearing lower volume shoes.

Answered by Josh, Verified Owner, November 7, 2013
Q Where's the sizing chart? I wear a men's size 11. What size will I need? Thanks
A
Expert Answer

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.
