| Which
version is best for me? |
Nothing
has surpassed the Original STABILicer IceWalkers™ for durability,
longevity, ease of use, and movement stability on ice and snow. It
still remains true that they are the best value overall for walking on
ice and snow. It is the choice for professionals who are on ice
and snow for extensive periods of time. The one "disadvantage"
the Original STABILicers have
is that their weight is relatively high for those who want to perform
athletic maneuvers on ice and snow such as running and jogging.
Weight can cause stride and gait changes, particularly at speed. To
meet this need the STABILicer people have developed a totally
different remarkably agile light weight icewalker™, the
STABILicer
Sport. The Sport uses a synthetic elastic strapping mechanism to
anchor itself to the shoe or boot.
The Sport uses different cleats than the Original Deluxe STABILicers,
and it has 9 bottom cleats per side as opposed to the 17 cleats
per side on the Original
Deluxe Version. Sizing of the two STABILicer versions is also
different. (See the sizing charts on the appropriate pages.)
Some hikers who carefully monitor the weight they
are carrying may also prefer the Sport. Also, the Sport
costs $10 less than the Original Version which may be helpful to those who want protection from falls on
ice and snow at a lesser
cost. The STABILicer Lite is a new low cost and light
weight stretch-on version. It is made of the same strong proprietary
elastomeric compound as the Sport but does not have replaceable cleats.
Best for casual users, for those who live in locations that receive
infrequent snow and ice, or for those who want a light pair of ice cleats with
them when they travel. The steel cleats on the Lite are positioned
in multidirectional fashion for optimal stability.
The STABILicer NEOS Overshoe is new to the Icewalker™
line for winter 2005-2006.
NEOS boots go on easily without the need to remove and put on shoes,
i.e., they are an overshoe. The STABILicer NEOS offers
the same convenience but with ice cleat protection. The cleats are
replaceable, and we feel this is a well engineered product, and it
is a real value for anyone who walks outside in the ice and snow.
