Where to start

Two main lines: ice cleats and functional shoe covers

Browse by use first, then compare specifications by spike count and structure. Every model carries the same bilingual SKU and spec fields.

Ice cleats: rubber base with steel studs fitted on a hiking boot

Ice Cleats

5 / 6 / 8 / 11 / 14 / 21 spikes in forefoot, full-foot and stainless chain structures, with strap or hook-and-loop fastening.

Quick selection

Conclusion first: choose the terrain, then the spike count and structure

What separates ice cleats is not the look but ground contact area and bite. This table maps spike counts to suitable and unsuitable surfaces, so a commuter model never ends up on continuous ice.

Manufacturing & quality

Molds in-house, compounds in-house, inspection at set gates

Seven gates from raw-material intake to finished-goods packing all happen inside one plant. That decides three things: the low-temperature compound can be tuned by ourselves, structural revisions don't queue at outside shops, and batch retained samples and inspection records stay traceable.

  • In-house mold workshop & CNC machining — revisions to new spike shapes and tread patterns take days, not outsourcing queues.
  • Natural high-elasticity rubber & special steel studs — compound and stud hardness tuned to the target market's low-temperature range.
  • 3,000㎡ high-standard cleanroom — for silicone parts with demanding appearance and fit requirements.
  • Incoming & finished-goods double inspection — tear strength / hardness and other physical tests sampled per batch, reports on file.

Certification & report wall

Compress compliance paperwork from two weeks to one email

Buyers usually get stuck on the same questions: where are the reports, which markets do they cover, and will customs or platforms accept them. Below are the document types you can request directly.

System & product certifications

  • ISO quality system certification
  • CE safety certification
  • Sedex 4P audit

Chemical & compliance testing

  • SGS biocompatibility (CN / EN)
  • REACH CANEC26013990814 / SZP26-026305
  • RoHS, California Prop 65, PFAS, PAHs

Toys & children's product standards

  • EN71-3 heavy metals
  • EN14372 phthalates
  • CPSIA, TSCA, organotin, halogens

Other persistent pollutant items

  • Siloxanes D3–D10
  • POPs (EU) 2019/1021
  • Flame-retardant yellow card

The full report index (body / report number / applicable products / covered standards / applicable markets) is listed item by item on the Certifications & Reports page. You can request reports only — no procurement plan needed.

Applications

One shipment can end up in completely different channels

Retail, commuting and workwear channels ask for different spike counts and straps. We recommend model directions by scenario, then you verify against the spec tables.

Hiking and commuting on icy surfaces

Snow & ice hiking and winter commuting

8–14 spike full-foot recommended, straps or hook-and-loop by shoe type; sizing must cover the last differences between hiking boots and work shoes.

See scenarios & recommended models →
Cycling rain shoe cover in use

Cycling & golf

Functional shoe covers lead: rain protection, breathability and outsole abrasion come first, traction second; watch folded size and storage.

Industrial safety shoe covers at work

Industrial & workplace anti-slip

Icy warehouses, sanitation and handling sites: select by disc-stud options plus compliance documents; test support is available.

The 5 questions buyers ask first

Clear the threshold questions before we talk price

Are you a factory or a trading company? Can we audit you?
A manufacturer integrating R&D, production and sales, with our own mold workshop and rubber lines in a plant of over 10,000㎡ (including a high-standard cleanroom of about 3,000㎡). We have passed the Sedex 4P audit and support on-site or online audits by you or third parties. Audit records and production-line photos are on the Manufacturing & Quality page.
How do I choose a spike count — what's the difference between 5 and 11?
Spike count sets ground contact area and bite: 5–8 spike forefoot models are enough for urban thin ice and sidewalks; 11–14 spike full-foot models suit winter hiking and packed snow; the 21-spike stainless chain suits continuous ice and slopes. Decide the surfaces you walk most, then the structure and fastening. See the spike count buying guide.
How do I size them — do they fit work boots or hiking boots?
Yes. Fit is matched on two dimensions: shoe size and outsole length. Hiking lasts run long and work shoes run wide, so our size chart lists outsole ranges by EU / US / UK sizes side by side, with step-by-step wearing instructions. See the size & fit guide.
What are the typical MOQ, sampling and lead times?
Regular models start by the carton with size pairing; MOQ varies by category and packaging. Customization on existing molds and compounds (straps, logo, retail box) samples quickly, while new molds need the mold design confirmed before sampling and mass-production schedules. Prices and tiers are not published — state your target quantity and launch window in the inquiry and we will commit a lead time based on our schedule.
Do rubber shoe covers crack in winter, and what materials do you use?
Low-temperature cracking depends mainly on the compound and filler system — not on the word "rubber". We adjust the selection of natural rubber vs TPE / silicone to the target market's low-temperature range, and can support low-temperature and tear-strength testing. See the material & process guide.
