After the carry on last year walking on treacherous pavements I think they look a good idea. Would love to hear how effective they are.

Yes, definately a good investment for someone who ventures outdoors on such a regular basis.

You definitely need to get a grip. But it has nothing to do with walking outside during icy weather.

Try Milletts - they may have some. I bought a pair of sturdy walking boots from there with really good grips on the soles and I was fine walking in the snow and ice with them and they weren't that expensive either.
