Does anyone use a walking boot cover like a Yaktrax that can actually stay on an NTN boot? I've tried Yaktrax and another brand and both don't stay on the toe piece. A lot of walking on concrete wears these boots to the point of potential early release with excessive second duck butt wear. My local ski are require a fair bit of walking and need a remedy.
Any non ski related product solutions?
Thanks!

Seems like Yaktrax would work. Does it not stay on when walking? There are lots of variants on Amazon. I don't think the duck butt is exposed to damage from walking, is it?

Yaktrax definitely do not work. The 2nd duckbill or whatever you want to call it on an NTN boot does wear from walking. Ask me how I know? Yep pre-released from a compression hit on a deep day.
