Icebug studded shoes reduce the risk of slipping when moving on slippery surfaces.
When winter comes, every car driver faces the same tire roulette as the previous year. Changing tires is like an automation that just has to be done. Of course, the matter is also monitored by the police. Most drivers would hardly try to get through the winter with summer tires, because the risk of an accident would be too great.
Still, a surprising number of people may walk through the winter in the same shoes as in the summer or autumn. This issue is not monitored by the police, but the risk of accidents is still high. This can be seen directly in the accident statistics. Tens of thousands of people are injured every winter due to slipping. It's not necessarily life-threatening injuries, like in car traffic, but hardly anyone wants to spend Christmas with a broken wrist.
So we want to remind you of the importance of good studded shoes. The risk of falling is significantly reduced when you use high-quality studded shoes on slippery surfaces.
A studded shoe designed for the Nordic foot and climate keeps you standing more securely and you can step on your journey without extra tension when you don't have to be afraid of every slippery spot.
Icebug's studded shoes utilize an incredible amount of modern technology. Let's take this women's water-repellent Nirak2 studded shoe as an example. The studded shoe in question uses Icebug's advanced smart stud technology called BUGrip. This means that the carbon steel studs on the sole work independently and intelligently. They adapt to the ground according to the situation, always giving the best grip. On soft surfaces, such as ice and snow, the stud bites firmly into the surface. On hard and flat surfaces, such as asphalt or concrete, the stud sinks into the sole rubber of the shoe automatically. On uneven surfaces, maximum grip is created by the combined effect of the special rubber sole and studs.
