Marrkey Studs are a much much cheaper alternative I found:

Check out my latest video on the Marrkey Studs here: • Stud Your Own Sneakers...
I can't tell a difference between them and Grip Studs 1000 Fat Bike Tire Studs for All Seasons, Ice & Snow for secure footing on icy surfaces which can be purchased here for nearly twice the price:
amzn.to/2WX1fmz
These should work way better for running on pavement this winter.
In the past, I have used Kold Kutter #8 Screws:
amzn.to/2CpnkRh
They are a bit long but do offer incredible grip and as long as you're careful not to located them where they'll stick in your foot or create pressure points. They are an alternative. Probably better for deeper hard packed trails.
I have also used Kahtoola MICROspikes:
amzn.to/2NxFnvg
They are best in heavier packed snow/ice conditions, would be horrible on pavement.
I also have used something that looks identical to STREAMtrekkers Traction Cleats:
amzn.to/2CsbMNf
and was quite happy with them.
And lastly, I've used YakTrax:
amzn.to/2K5qCxk
Even with the top strap, I find these fall off more than the other slip on devices.
Something I just found are Frogg Toggs Hard-Case Boot Studs:
amzn.to/2Nuux8Z
They're pretty cheap and look similar to the Kold Kutter #8's. Haven't tried them but might.

Dude, you’re awesome. Thanx so much.

[@Josephpaulchu]

Thanks for the vid! I'm thinkng of installing them on my Merril's which have a Vibram sole that is great on snow but slipery on ice.

[@khauritompkins7540]

This vid was super helpful, thank you!

[@dannyloo9688]

Wonder if it would be easier to install if you formed a hole before insertion with a small drill bit or a heated, straightened paper clip.

He did try drilling a pilot hole to ease insertion at 1:27

I have a pair of classic Bostonians that could use a new leather sole. I'll bring them buy. ;-)

BRAVE LADY !!!

[@PeterAgostiniJdcap26]

The only problem with this is do not walk on tile or marble with them or you’ll going sliding .and take your shoes off so they mar up the floors!

[@MTBIKEXC]

I've walked into a grocery store with these on and didn't slip b/c enough of the rubber still makes contact but yeh - you definitely don't want to walk on hard floors with these on.
