Slips During Gait on Winter Surfaces: Evaluation of Ice Cleat Design and Slip Definition

Current winter footwear provides inadequate protection from slip-related injuries on ice, and there is limited research investigating the optimal design of anti-slip devices. This study examined how ice cleat spike height and position in the heel affect slipping. No differences could be observed bet...
