Reply to comment by Realtrain in Women’s winter boots by Kastler13

Grip is just okay on cold packed snow or ice, but I don’t know of many shoes that would be effective on that kind of difficult surface.

I love the boots because of the warmth with the Sherpa lining, overall quality construction and waterproof build.

not to beat a dead horse with the the LL Bean boots, but I do know people who just put the ice spike/cleat caps over their winter boots when they really need traction - I've never needed it, but always possible

This is what I did when we lived in the north east and in Chicago. Bean boots lasted me 20+ yrs. The stretch on ice grippers were perfect for icy days.
