Ice cleats for boots

[jrmcanada]

I have a pair of Lowa Renegade hiking boots. I wore them in Switzerland last winter/spring and they were excellent for all the hiking I did except for one day when I was in a town with very icy sloped roads. I had essentially no traction at all and the slope made this extra entertaining. Because the boots are excellent for everything else and I spend very little time on pure ice, I'd like to get a set of ice cleats that I can put on my boots on the rare occasions when I need them.

What do you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

I have also had good results using Microspikes. Here is a review as well.
