Emergency Safety Shoe Attatchments

These ‘Nordic Grip’ Shoe Attachments Will Keep You

— November 27, 2013 — Special
For those of us who are in the unfortunate position of having the word “winter” strike fear into our hearts, Nordic Grip has created a new ice safety tool. This handy little contraption can easily be attached to almost any shoe so you can wear what you want in the winter without fearing for your life.

The way this new safety device works is by attaching an elastic band-like loop of rubber to your shoes. On the bottom of the band are two grips that dig into the ice so you won’t slip and fall. The bands are easy to put on your shoes and even come in five fun colors.

Because they are so simple to take on and off, you can take them off when you get to your destination and then put them back on your way home. Now none of your shoes are inappropriate for winter. You could even get every color and match them with your outfits.
Trend Themes
1. Winter Safety Accessories - The trend of creating innovative accessories for winter safety is opening up opportunities for new products such as shoe attachments that prevent slipping on ice.
2. Versatile Shoe Enhancements - The trend of developing shoe attachments that can be easily attached and removed provides disruptive innovation opportunities for creating versatile and adaptable footwear solutions.
3. Fashionable Winter Gear - The trend of incorporating style and color options into winter safety gear is driving the demand for fashionable winter accessories like colorful shoe attachments.
Industry Implications
1. Safety Gear - The safety gear industry can take advantage of the trend by producing innovative winter accessories that prioritize safety and convenience, such as shoe attachments for preventing slips on ice.
2. Footwear - The footwear industry can tap into the trend by designing shoes that are compatible with detachable shoe attachments, providing consumers with versatile and winter-ready footwear options.
3. Fashion - The fashion industry can capitalize on the trend by creating stylish winter accessories, like colorful shoe attachments, that combine fashion and function for the winter season.
