For people that saw / used my Boot Dryer at the Jan. event - this is what I have:

Also, I cannot recommend these highly enough for icy conditions:

You can slip them over IG boots when needed, and take them back off when inside, or in warmer weather.

Another option for the Ice Grips is LLBeans

I personally am debating buying the purple but am afraid that's too out of game even for a gypys.

If it helps any, most people can see your feet when they are under a few feet of snow anyway. :P

Go with something that will match your boots, so they don't stand out.  Black is usually safe, although I have seen bright honkin' purple Sandlars...

Just a word of caution when purchasing any studded or spiked metal winter traction devices

They can be VERY slippery when cominng from the outside to the inside  Any smoth concrete, tile oor terraza like floor will see you flat on yoyr backside

In my previous life as an Industrial Safety Specialist we tried different ones because of this   We found some slip on galoshes by a company called Jordan/David  who manufactured similar devices that had wide strips of # 24 grit built into the soles

I am not saying to not buy what you like  Just make sure to determine if they can cause another type of slipping risk
