The Yaktrax Walker is designed for people who are looking for an easy-to-use, lightweight traction device for their shoes. The Walker is the original version of Yaktrax and is ideal for pedestrians, the elderly, business people or anyone who want greater stability on ice and snow. Use the Yaktrax Walker while walking to and from work, school or just to the mailbox.
The Walker is made out of an injection molded thermal plastic elastomer designed for easy on and off. The coils are protected against rusting and hand-wound to give you 360 degrees of traction on ice and snow. When you walk in the Yaktrax Walker, every step you take places hundreds of biting edges in direct contact with the ice beneath your feet. Yaktrax can be worn in temperatures as low as -41 degrees Fahrenheit.
The patented design of the Walker makes it a unique solution to walking on packed snow and ice. The outerband conforms to the length and width of your boot or shoe. The high strength horizontal coils provide forward and backward stability. The vertical coil pattern provide side-to-side stability.
Recently tested by hundreds of winter enthusiasts, the Walker has been approved and recommended by the National Health & Wellness Club and the Handyman Club of America.

Study Confirms YAKTRAX® Keep Elderly Safer On Ice and Snow
The Yaktrax Walker is the original Yaktrax version. It was designed for people who were walking on an icy parking lot, sidewalk or walking their dog. It is great for pedestrians, kids or the elderly. We have grandparents, moms, dads, school children, college students and dog owners staying on their feet during the winter months thanks to the Yaktrax Walker.
The Yaktrax Pro is designed for the more active winter person. A mail carrier, runner, outside worker or someone who faces winter conditions on a daily basis. They are made of a more durable rubber blend and have a removable strap, should you go into deep snow. We have marathoners, police officers, triathlete, speed walkers, construction workers, crossing guards, and many other professionals using the Pro.
October 30, 2005 We put snow chains on our cars to give us traction on ice and snow, so this is one of those ideas we’ll accept fairly readily. Indeed, the Yaktrax is such a good idea that it was recently on show in the Museum of Modern Art in New York as "masterfully designed product for everyday use". The Yaktrax Walker was chosen among 122 other products (such as the Paper Clip, Post-It-Note and Band-Aid) as one product that "makes peoples lives easier and safer". There are two models of Yaktrax – one for walking and one for active sports, and the simple propostion is that you stretch these onto your shoes and 1000 biting edges suddenly give you a solid footing. The active sports version, named the Yaktrax Pro, has a removable performance strap for stability under the greater stresses experienced at running speeds.
The patented design of the Walker makes it a unique solution to walking on packed snow and ice. The outerband conforms to the length and width of your boot or shoe. The high strength horizontal coils provide forward and backward stability. The vertical coil pattern provide side-to-side stability.
At US$19.95 a pair, Yaktrax Walkers are almost a mandatory acquisition if you live anywhere where it gets colder than freezing. Similarly, if you plan on moving quickly and live in that environment, you’ll benefit from the additional stability of the US$27.95 Yaktrax pro.
They are available on-line or you can find a retailer in the US here or an international distributor here.
