Customer Reviews
I'm so glad there is finally a smaller spike that is made for larger feet. I wore these with a size US15 'Lowa Renegade GTX Mid Wide' boot and US16 'Colombia Bugaboot III' snow boot and had no problems fitting a XXL pair of the Kahtoola Microspikes to them. I wore these all throughout northern Norway, Finland and Sweden during the winter of 2025 down to negative 20 degrees celsius. They were incredibly helpful when coming across staircases on a hike that had been 100% iced over and gave good grip when trying to walk up elevated packed snow. Though they aren't meant for mountaineering or any hardcore real mountain use, I used them to climb the ridge between Segla and Heston in Senja, Norway in the middle of winter. Lots of the track was knee deep snow but they gave surprisingly useful traction when reaching hard packed elevated snow and the many rocks on the trail that get iced over. I found them useful also on the descent as they seemed to prevent my feet slipping too far as I waded through the deep snow by gripping the harder snow pack below. I definitely recommend these to my fellow big footers. Service from K2 was fast, super simple transaction.
