Yeah! You'll find them useful. Sometime cumbersome, but you'll figure out ways around that. The one thing that I have found is that they stretch, even the more expensive ones after a few years use. Then you'll be trudging through the snow doing your thing and come back to the house missing one. Then you have to retrace steps to find it. That's always a lot of fun. But for preventing falls, they are definitely worth it.

I got stabilicers, but I might also get some crampons for next year. I mostly walk him on the back of my property - and usually there is some give in the snow. But when I fell, there was NO give at all. It was just a little bit of snow that was solid ice. I'm just going to leave them on whatever dedicated boots I have for the yard - and use them when I need (and never take them off).

Same with the stabilicers.
