Must Buy
I’ve been using the Hillsound FreeSteps6® Crampons through real winter conditions—icy sidewalks, packed snow trails, and a few steep, slick sections—and they’ve been a total confidence booster. The traction is aggressive in the best way: the spikes bite cleanly into ice and hard snow, so you don’t get that nervous “micro-slip” feeling that cheaper cleats often give. I’ve worn them for walking, winter hiking, and even some light trail running, and they’ve stayed secure the whole time without shifting on my boots. What I really like is how simple they are to put on and take off. The rubber harness stretches snugly over footwear and feels durable, not flimsy. Once they’re seated properly, they stay put—even in deep snow or uneven terrain. For the price, the build quality feels excellent and the performance punches above its weight compared to other traction devices I’ve tried. A couple small things to note: sizing matters. If you’re between sizes or using bulkier winter boots, it’s worth double-checking the size chart or sizing up. Also, in sticky or fresh snow, I’ve noticed some snow can pack under the heel/toe areas where the chains loop together. It’s not a dealbreaker, but you may need to knock the buildup out occasionally on longer outings. Overall, these are a fantastic winter traction option—lightweight, tough, and seriously effective. If you spend any time outdoors in winter, they’re absolutely worth it for the stability and peace of mind. Highly recommended.

Great Crampons
I bought the Freesteps Crampons 7years ago. I have used them extensively and they are fantastic, icy hikes on trails and town trails. Highly recommended but one of them wires broke and I had to hack together a fix. I am sending them away to get fixed

Superb Product - Great Customer Support
Purchased in Canadian Rockies early in season to cope with lot of snow on higher trails. Performed wonderfully in slush, ice, bit of snow cover and calf deep snow. Very easy to put and take off. Light - you don't really know you're wearing them. Overall, very satisfied and would recommend to any trail hiker. And PS/ Hillsound customer support are terrific - also worthy of a mention !!

Hiking Freedom Wearing Freesteps6 Crampons
Crampons are easy to put on and remove as required during a hike. Grip works well on icy paths while hiking ice trails. A small pouch to store the crampons would be a nice to have. Delivery was prompt.

My Third Pair
These provide super traction when I fish during the winter. Helps me get to the river and I keep them on while wading. This is my 3rd pair because I’ve lost 2 pair in deep snow. I wear a size 10 wading boot and bought size large.
