Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: I bought these for ice fishing and they work great on ice or snow covered ice. since it covers the entire bottom of my boot it makes for a more natural walking motion Pros
Cons
Best Uses Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: This product was terrible. I used it only once and one of the chains broke and one of my hiking friends had a pair of pliers so I was able to put it together. Further along on the hike, another chain broke on the other shoe and I had to take it off. Finally, on the remaining yaktrax 3 chains broke and I had to take that one off as well. I ended up hiking with no protection in very icy conditions! Pros

Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: These are nice but not as extreme as the name suggests. I used them in the White Mountains and they did not hold up to that kind of abuse. Should work great for easy hikes.  Pros

Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: On the first hike 2 chains broke. Fixed them with paracord. Next time most of the other ones went. Even one tooth broke right off. This product does not work on any terrain that has a slope to it. Those chains snap under very little load. Do not take these on a hike! Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: I used them on a hike this weekend and the rubber broke on both yaktrax...it's a joke to call this extreme. it's extreme only in level of disappointment.

Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: Work best with continuous snow/ice cover on trail. Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: Worked great in 6" of Smoky Mountain snow. I ran into two hikers on my return who admired the "bite" of my tracks - they complained of slipping back a few inches on the larger snow covered rocks. Here are the answers to their questions: the XTRs were easy to put on and off; I never felt like they were slipping off; worked great going up and down; I really appreciated them crossing streams. Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Images shared by Roche Traction like a bear.  Images shared by Roche  (1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) Was this review helpful?

Best Uses Comments about Yaktrax XTR Extreme Traction Device: It was great on snow, and on some icy spots and slushy spots during a snow storm after Christmas in NY. I'm a klutz, and with these on, I felt confident. I'm 285 lbs, and yet felt secure walking on them. Haven't tried them on plain ice, and will take caution should I face ice. Wish they were a tad easier to put on and take off. Actually, wish one could walk on a regular linoleum or smooth building floor with them. Displaying reviews 1-10 Previous | Next » |
