Customer Reviews
I am returning them because they are too small and too narrow.
The Ice Heroes are perfect for winter running in Montana. I feel like I could run on a sheet of ice in these shoes without slipping! I usually run on mixed terrain of snow and ice with some occasional asphalt and they work great on all surfaces. They’re also useful for winter dog walks.
The shoes are comfortable and the studs make hiking in icy conditions possible. I can't speak to their longevity as I have only had them a month but I am a fan.
I'm so impressed with the Ice Hero! They keep my feet dry and warm in fresh powder and in old heavy snow. They do well on soft ice too and are so light. I thought running with studs would be uncomfortable but I don't feel them at all. One little drawback is my ankles do wabble around a bit when I hit any lumps, footprints or ski tracks so I have to be aware of that when running on more heavily traveled areas. Overall, I'm glad I bought these and love running in them!
These are the best studded winter shoe I've ever worn! They're light for fast runs, but also comfortable and with plenty of cushion so that if I wanted to do a long run in these it would be no problem. I don't feel the studs at all like I've done in other shoes. They feel just like running in any lightweight comfortable shoe, except with more confidence!
