Traction on demand- what a concept!
I found these boots by accident, a staff member was attempting to help me find good winter hiker style boots. I had looked at several styles when I heard her say 'what the heck is this?' She found the crank on the back of the boot that extended the cleats. Instantly I had to have them, I have fallen on the ice before, this should stop that situation from ever happening again. They did not have my size in the store, but carried it online, so I ordered right there and then, hoping they would fit. The traction they give is incredible, I can not attest to the cold weather value as we have not gotten cold yet. I have heard that at -20 the cleats will not move, and that sand will plug the mechanism. I have not seen that yet, but will be looking for issues for sure. They only go to a 13 regular, wide would be a good size to add. I have showed MANY people these boots, everyone has said they are buying them. More advertising will help sell this wonderful idea. They do fit a little tight, but are breaking in.

Tres bonnes chaussures.
J'ai acheté ces bottes il y a quelques semaines et ne peut plus m'en passer. J'ai eu des bottes wind River auparavant et je les ai trainé 15 ans. Je crois bien que je vais les avoir aussi longtemps car la qualité du cuir et des crampons est vraiment super.

Make sure those traction spikes retract properly.
I ordered these online long ago, and had to wait for decent weather to get to the nearest store, since for unknown reasons Mark's won't deliver to post office boxes, which is all we have where I live. I finally got there and found the boots fit perfectly. Then I tried to put the spikes out and in again. Those on the left boot worked fine; those on the right boot would not go back in without pushing harder than I'm able against some kind of glitch. The salesperson tried to convince me this was normal, but it wasn't. I turned them in and reordered, hoping for a functional pair. Make sure you test those spikes before buying.

Cool feature- Traction on demand.
Real traction on slippery ice-coated pavement after the freezing rain.
