{"reviews":[{"id":7374528,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"The traction I have been asking for!","text":"Last year I was trail running / hiking with my wife in typical variable early winter season Colorado conditions - sometimes it's dry, sometimes it's pure ice, sometimes it's packed snow, sometimes it's slush... all on the same route. I let my wife wear my Micro spikes and I took the Exo spikes. I was thinking the Micro were too aggressive and heavy on my trail runners and I also wanted to make sure my hiking partner was sure footed. The Exo spikes worked well in most situations but when it gets really muddy or snowy they're not the right tool. I said to my wife \"I wish the Micro spikes and Exo spikes would just have a baby!\"\r\n\r\nAnd well, that's what the Ghost feels like to me. They are super lightweight as advertised and the stretchy harness system isn't noticeable at all on trail shoes. I was testing these in pretty dry conditions and I was worried it was going to be super uncomfortable, but as I started running I didn't notice them at all - and it was kinda fun having the extra traction on dry conditions. I did get into some mud and slop. I had just missed the early snow we had. \r\n\r\nI've tested them on a few more runs and they look like they've barely been used, so durable too. Also I wanted to see if they would stand up to being chewed on by a dog or wild animal but couldn't find any to cooperate so I tested it myself. :) (see pic)\r\n\r\nThey went on really easy and off too. I carried them in my running vest and didn't notice them at all. These are going to be my new faves and number one in the traction department. Yes for trail running but hiking and everything else too. Highly recommend. I did receive these to test in exchange for a review and I'm also supposed to add in any shortcomings but really, I can't find any.","textLength":1748,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Marc G.","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"United States","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-10-18T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"Kahtoola","siteUrl":"https://kahtoola.com","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/5415_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"855333-KT02-17","title":"Adult Kahtoola Inc MICROspikes Ice Cleats","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/855333-KT02-17","category":"ice-cleats","reviewCount":23,"ratingCount":23,"averageRating":4.9,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":21},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7374527,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Excellent Bite from XL Hiking Spikes on Mixed Terrain","text":"I received a pair of Kahtoola MicroSpikes Ghost in exchange for this review.\r\n\r\nI tested size XL spikes and wear a size 13 hiking boot. Fortunately, snow fell this week on Mt. San Jacinto, providing an opportunity to test the spikes on crusty snow, refrozen slush, ice, dirt, and rocks.\r\nThe spikes fit very snugly and hold in place quite well. My test hike was about 4 miles with moderate elevation gains (1,100’ over 2 miles). I had to adjust the spikes once during the hike as the spikes on one shoe slipped toward the side beyond the boot sole (see photo). One quick adjustment to properly orient the spikes and no further issues.\r\nThroughout the hike, the bite was excellent. I felt no slippage between sole and spikes. Confidence in the spikes was quickly built and sustained. The spikes were not as steady on dry, angled rocks as good soles, but that is to be expected. Otherwise, I was pleased with the performance of the spikes on dry rock and dirt.\r\nBecause over half of the hike was dry, the spikes transferred some pressure through the boot soles. For a longer hike in similar conditions, I would have removed the spikes periodically to address the pressure, but for my hike, the pressure was noticeable but wholly tolerable.\r\nBased on this one outing, I would rate the spikes 5 out of 5.\r\n","textLength":1302,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Scott C.","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"United States","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-10-18T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"Kahtoola","siteUrl":"https://kahtoola.com","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/5415_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"855333-KT02-17","title":"Adult Kahtoola Inc MICROspikes Ice Cleats","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/855333-KT02-17","category":"ice-cleats","reviewCount":23,"ratingCount":23,"averageRating":4.9,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":21},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7372478,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Great addition to my kit","text":"I love my new Microspike ghost.

We got an early season snowstorm over the weekend and it gave me a perfect chance to try them out on the local trail network. I run year round to stay in shape for my job and these are my new go-to traction device for snowy runs. \r\n\r\nI have the size medium Microspikes Ghost on a pair of 9.5 mens Topo MTN Racer 3 and they fit perfectly. The toe box area of the harness has been redesigned and it's much more comfortable than my EXOspikes. When I was running on packed snow, I legitimately forgot there was anything attached to my shoe. The spikes being able to articulate to the terrain is a clever idea that provided me with a great deal of confidence. I was able to carry as much speed as I would on a tacky trail. I had no issue running as if it were a typical summer day. The redesigned harness seems to make them more packable too. I can easily fit them in my running pack. \r\n\r\nKeep in mind that the spikes are very aggressive and be mindful of the surfaces you're planning to use them on. If your run/hike is on mixed snow and bare ground, the EXOspikes might be a better option. The Microspikes Ghost are incredible on new snow, packed snow, ice, and anything they can bite into. They can feel weird on rock, concrete, or other very hard surfaces. \r\n\r\nBottom line, these are the most comfortable most confidence inspiring traction device I've ever used. \r\n","textLength":1394,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":2,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Jordan ","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"United States","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-10-14T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"Kahtoola","siteUrl":"https://kahtoola.com","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/5415_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"855333-KT02-17","title":"Adult Kahtoola Inc MICROspikes Ice Cleats","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/855333-KT02-17","category":"ice-cleats","reviewCount":23,"ratingCount":23,"averageRating":4.9,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":21},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":6117268,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Great traction","text":"These are a game changer and life saver!","textLength":40,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":true,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"LORETTA W.","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-02-15T00:00:00-05:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"Kenetrek Boots","siteUrl":"https://www.kenetrek.com","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/2527_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"855333-KT02-17","title":"Adult Kahtoola Inc MICROspikes Ice Cleats","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/855333-KT02-17","category":"ice-cleats","reviewCount":23,"ratingCount":23,"averageRating":4.9,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":21},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":6103381,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Work great in all icy","text":"Work great in all icy conditions\nLast weekend I was the only one of four to haul a sled full onto the ice without falling.
