Winter’s changeable weather means that in the months between December and March, you have to be ready for anything — especially in Canada.
A day can start out clear, cold, and bright, but end in a blizzard. Gentle snowflakes can turn into freezing rain, creating dangerously icy conditions. Once snow accumulates or sleet freezes on the ground, your risk of slipping and injuring yourself greatly increases, and being prepared is your best line of defence.
An anti-slip Heelstop Traction Aid is a convenient and effective accessory to help stabilize footwear in the winter months.
Portable and versatile, the Traction Aid is a cleated device that fits over the heel of your shoes and boots to add traction to the outsole.
This flexible brace is made with freeze-resistant industrial-grade rubber, with an adjustable velcro band that fastens over the top of the shoe. The bottom is fitted with a series of tungsten carbide spikes, to pierce ice and snow and create a safer, stable foothold. Reflective 3M strips at the heel add visibility in bad weather.
Easy to attach and remove, Heelstop Traction Aids are lightweight and handy for travel. They may be kept:
- At your front entrance/garage/mud room for winter chores or dog walks
- In your vehicle as part of your emergency car kit
- At work for indoor/outdoor transitions or slippery conditions
- In your briefcase, purse, suitcase, backpack for travel
- For the safety of elderly relatives and friends
The Heelstop Traction Aid also assists with workplace safety. The spark-proof and anti-static cleats have been developed and tested by the manufacturer for flammable conditions in the oil and gas industry.
Heelstops can be attached to all footwear, from trainers to work boots. Convenient and portable, they add instant anti-slip traction in unsettled weather.
Heelstop Traction Aids are now available on our website in sizes L, XL, and XXL. Order your pair today for safety and stability this winter, and to be ready for the next!
