Seirus Innovation 4150 Cat Tracks Boot Sole Protectors for added Comfort and Traction

I have probably bought 3 or 4 pair of these over the last 15 years. These are very helpful and worth putting on when I have a long walk over paved surfaces. They protect my boots well. I also find them very helpful for very icy surfaces and am sure they have saved me from falling many times. They are a pain to put on and take off, but worth it when I need to. These last long and hold up well. Once in a while I lose one if it falls off and I need to buy an extra pair, but worth it.

These are simply amazing. I’ve been using this product since the early 80s. My current pair have been lasting at least five seasons and we walk everywhere in them. I only bought these as a back up just in case, but my current ones don’t seem to be wearing out or looking to fail anytime soon. Just a month ago we walked all over Zermatt, Switzerland and Chamonix France with these on my boots.

Good quality

Good product!

These things used to be made of a much more stretchable material. Now they are made with garbage. I had to use the large size to fit my 255 boots whereas in the past I used the small size. Will look for alternative to this as I suspect that I'll either loose them off my boots or that they will break. Pity that the manufacturer took a good product and cheapened it in the quest to eek out the last bit of profit.

This is my third pair of Cat Tracks. My ski boot size went from 27.5 to 26.5. I think I was properly measured for my 26.5 ski boots and my old Cat Track were too stretched out for my new boots. I love my Cat Track for two basic reasons: the first is that they save wear and tear on your boot soles and second they prevent you from slipping on ice and snow while you are walking. Highly recommend using Cat Tracks.

I was told I should get these after the boot shop saw that the heel of my ski boots was getting worn down. Per other reviewers and the directions, you have to let them sit in hot water and then stretch them over your boots. It won't work if you just try to stretch them over your boots without warming them in hot water first. If you leave them off your boots for a while after the initial stretch they will be hard to put back on. I haven't tried them in cold weather yet but I suspect they will be very hard to get on after sitting in my pocket for a full day of skiing. I also did what other reviewers said and melted holes (via candle and holding a nail with pliers) in the heel and looped a zip tie through to create a handle. I have not tried walking on snow in them yet but so far this is exactly what I was looking for. My boot size is 7.5 and I got a size small.Update: I've have taken these puppies skiing and I am very pleased. Walking on ice and snow is a lot less scary with these on because I don't feel like I will slip at all. Great grip and traction. They are a little tough to fit in my pockets. This is a complaint I have about women's ski gear in general (small pockets). Fitting these in pockets will be less of an issue in men's ski gear which typically have nice large pockets. Based on other reviews I put them in the pockets of my midlayer jacket (which I wear under a waterproof shell jacket) and left them there all day so they are closest to my body thus staying warmer. When I did that I didn't struggle much putting them on at the end of the ski day prior to walking back to my car. I found putting the heel in first is actually easier than putting the toe in first. I store my boots with the cat tracks on.I'll probably get at least an extra 30 days of skiing out of my very expensive ski boots thanks to these.

Accurate sizing. Easy to put on boots.
