Put them on some hard toe work boots for working in some sloping woods
I have some slopes covered in pine needles or leaves and I normally work in old golf shoes with new cleats. Using the chain saw though I like some hard toes but still need the extra traction. I've only got a few hours in on the shoes but so far very happy.<br /><br />To get the cleats into the shoe I had to break the skin with a drill bit first to give the cleat an opening to bite into. I also used shoe glue. I think these shoes get a pretty good workout when I'm stomping around the woods in all kinds of terrain including rocks down by the creek. We'll see how long they hold up. So far just a week. I'll be sure and post an update at the end of the summer.<br /><br />I also stuck one on the end of a walking stick. Works pretty nice.<br /><br />Edit May 27 - Not quite the end of the summer but I've spent some days in the woods with a chain saw and doing a lot of climbing on steep banks. I love these things. Nothing is loose. Probably a lot depends on the sole you put these in and for sure shoe glue has to help but I would recommend these for work shoes if you can glue them into some solid soles.
