The right snow cleats for your feet
Don't let icy roads keep you from your appointed run. Here are two cleats we found that easily slip onto your running shoes, and keep you from slipping when conditions get dicey.
Yaktrax Pro
Thanks to the adjustable Velcro strap that runs over the top of your shoe, the Pro is easy to get on and off. Plus, the smooth steel coils don't snag on uneven terrain. We do suggest removing them on dry surfaces, where the coils can create an uneven ride. $28; 866-925-8729; yaktrax.com
Polar Cleats
The top performer among cleats we tested, the Polar is made from recycled rubber and enables you to run on both ice and packed snow. Plus, the detachable security strap keeps the cleats fastened even when running in deep powder. $20; 866-862-9650, polarcleats.com
