  • @Laurel actually I was thinking about product recommendation.

    Yeah, recommendation questions aren't really accepted here on the Stack Exchange network, with the narrow exceptions of software and hardware. See Why are "shopping list" questions bad? for why. Commented Nov 3, 2019 at 0:48

    I would avoid phrasing the question as a shopping recommendation. Is there a related or more general question that may be useful to you that is OK for SE? Example: how to prevent boots from sliding on ice under such and such conditions? This one can be answered not only by product links. Commented Nov 3, 2019 at 1:09

While broad product recommendations are not allowed on our site "The Great Outdoors" searching there for the term "ice boots" returns 75 results and suggests these tags:

  • winter-walking - 14 results - "Questions about walking in winter conditions."

  • crampons - 20 results - "Crampons can be used for ice climbing or winter walking on snow and ice."

  • microspikes - 2 results - 'Less robust than crampons and they lack the front- and side-facing teeth' [tag wiki not completed]

More complex searches are also possible: [shoes] or [boots] and [ice] is:question - 2 hits. Just be certain to mention existing questions on other sites so there isn't duplication in the effort offering answers you've already received.
