Don't Be a Falling Statistic!
Help Reduce the Risk of Wintertime Falls
With
YAKTRAX®

Don’t let the snow and ice get in the way of winter activities! Whether going for a short hike around the neighbourhood, or walking the dog, make this winter injury-free with YAKTRAX®, by Implus Footcare LLC.

YAKTRAX are lightweight, effective winter footwear devices that are simple and comfortable to wear and adaptable to all types of footwear. The durable stretch rubber frame, engineered with hand-wound stainless steel coils, provides 360 degrees of traction. With a unique and patented surface, YAKTRAX provides the same solid, predictable grip felt on dry surfaces and ensures stability on ice and snow.

These rust-proof coils are not spikes, but tiny skid-lock surfaces that, as the weight is transferred to the foot, embed themselves into the ice to provide stability in all directions: forward, backwards and side-to-side. When the foot is lifted, the coil system stays snugly with the shoes, offering unhindered ease in movement.

Proven to reduce the risk of outdoor winter falls, YAKTRAX is recognized by the Canadian Physiotherapy Association for their innovative product that may assist in a person’s health care and are available in
two levels of traction:

YAKTRAX WALKER provides a snow-tire-like traction that makes walking through packed snow and ice safer. YAKTRAX WALKER is made for regular use and are made from Poly Elastomer. Available in Black, Safety Orange and Glow Green in sizes S-M-L-XL for men and women. SRP $24.95

Those with an active lifestyle can continue running in the snow with YAKTRAX PRO, an upgraded heavy-duty construction with a removable performance strap that keeps your YAKTRAX in place. Worn by Safety Workers, Ice Rink Employees, Police Officers, Runners, Athletes, and Road Warriors, YAKTRAX PRO are made from a Natural Rubber Blend. Available in Black only, in sizes S-M-L-XL for men and women. SRP $34.95

YAKTRAX WALKER and YAKTRAX PRO are available at select Mountain Equipment Co-op, Running Room, Coast Mountain Sports, and Sporting Life Stores as well as specialty retailers across Canada.
