Very nice. I had a pair many years ago, these are much better!I have a pair of Lange RSX-120 boots that are on their 3 pair of liners and I just replaced the toe and heel pads.

I bought a pair late last ski season after a bad fall on ice at ski area parking lot. They were a bit loose on my old boots and slipped off once. Bought a new pair of boots near end of season and the large skitrax I had no longer fit - too long. Bought a medium this year and initially thought they were too small but after giving them a good stretch they fit very snug and were easier to get on an off after being stretched. I keep them on my boots when not using and I think that makes them easier to get on and off. Also, I can fit each of the skitrax in my cargo pants pockets so I don’t have to worry about were to stash them after taking them off to ski. Recommend these but suggest trying to get ones that will fit snug to the length of your boot. Sizing chart in the pictures on the Amazon website.

Easy to step into and out of. They fold to fit in your pocket. Love them!

The RIGHT Trax was OK and snugly fitted my 344 mm. boot using water to help slip the heel piece on. However, the LEFT Trax had cracks in the center of the connector section where the section was sharply folded in the package. Surprisingly the cracks were on the inside of the bend, not the outside. Upon attempting to put the LEFT Trax on the boot, the Trax tore where the cracks were located. Others have reported failures of the center section. However, since I could not obtain a "CAT TRACKS" model large enough for my boot, I repaired the Left Trax instead of sending it back. My method used neoprene/nylon/neoprene laminated crampon strap and two brass grommets. The crampon strap was 38 year old material originally from Seattle Manufacturing Corp. (SMC) in 1978 for SMC crampons; the strap material is still in perfect condition. The 1/4" diameter grommets were from a 38 year old size O (or 0?) "Handi Grommet Kit" by Lord & Hodge Inc., Middletown, CT. I bored a 1/4 inch hole in both the front and rear pieces of the Trax using a soldering iron, not a drill, with the hole centers about 1 inch from the flat bottom sections. I then used a cork borer to make two 1/4" holes near the ends of the 3.5" long neoprene nylon strap with a distance of 2 and 5/8" between hole centers. After smoothing the holes in the Trax pieces with the soldering iron and thinning the bottoms of the Trax pieces by the holes with the iron to accommodate the male part of the 1/4" brass grommets, I was able to pound on the washer parts with a hammer. This tedious process required 2.8 hours. See the photo for the result. The Chinese-made Trax is of very poor quality, probably a carbon-filled plasticized vinyl or even natural rubber, not a good quality polyurethane; vinyls and rubber have very poor tear strength and tensile strength compared to urethanes; I am a retired polymer chemist so know the wrong type of elastomer was chosen to make these. I do not recommend this product to anyone since the 90 day warranty is terrible for a product which should last at least for 5 or 10 years. Also, the silvery stuff bag is NOT waterproof as it should be, since wet snow will leak into a day pack used to stow these; a ZIP lock baggie should be used inside the stuff bag. All these Trax should be stored in a flat, not folded, condition to prevent future cracking of the center sections. Also do NOT store the Trax mounted on boots to prevent cracking.

I learned of these from a fellow snow-skiing individual. I'd never seen them previously. They definitely protect my "Ski Boots' soles," especially when walking on cement, asphalt, macadam, as well as similar "more tough than my Ski Boots' soles, especially the heels." However be careful not to twist them as the front/rear portions are connected, yet not perfectly. If I accidentally "twist" them (front to rear sole portions; as when placing them into my Ski Jacket's pockets), I've noticed a bit of a "small rip" developing in the front/rear soles' connection's "rubberized plastic?" Yet I'd always recommend them so as to protect my Ski Boots' front/rear soles from "unnecessary wear" as I walk to the slopes from my vehicle. However they're much less expensive to replace than my "much more expensive" Ski Boots; even much less expensive than "repairing" my Ski Boots' soles. TY!

The media could not be loaded. not only is walking in ski boots in a muddy parking lot a misery, but it can damage the bottom of your skiboots, such that they may not release from your bindings if the skid plate is really scratched up. This product makes it a pleasure to walk any distance in ski boots. They allow your boots to roll so your gate is much more natural and not labored. Plus they protect your boots from the mud and grime. They fit in your pocket to you can simply put them back on at the end of the day, for your walk back to the car. If you have to walk in a ski area parking lot with any regularity, these are a must have.
