Cleats


There's absolutely no way I could have taken Rascal for his walk today if I didn't have these things on. I tried but had to go back home and put them on. It was 60 degrees today and slush/icey and impossible to walk without falling down. I got them from a catalog for $14.95 and sometimes they're worth a million dollars to me. I can stand up straight, even walk fairly normally. They stretch over whatever shoes you're wearing and so far haven't shown any signs of wear. Maybe they're very common, I don't know. All I know is that I just love mine, especially today.
God bless you, Diane

As one known for falling, there are even pictures to prove it, I really need to get a pair of these! I have no confidence at all when walking on slippery surfaces. Thanks for showing!

How neat, Diane. I've never seen them before. WELL--guess we don't need them here in TN... HA!!!

Take care and don't FALL.
Hugs,
Betsy

Oh, those are cleats. I've never known - they're mentioned in a Tom Lehrer song (I think it's the Masochism Tango). How useful, I wish I had some too.
