A roofing shoe traction chassis system has a roofing shoe traction chassis with a toe strap, foot strap and heel strap coupled thereto for securing a shoe to the chassis. The chassis also has a detachable traction sheet configured for attachment to the base of the roofing shoe chassis. The roofing shoe traction chassis can be quickly donned over a pair of shoes allowing a user to wear a more comfortable and better ventilated shoe. The detachable traction sheet can be changed out as the traction layer is worn. An exemplary roofing shoe traction chassis has a strap support that extends up from a support plate and has a toe strap and foot strap aperture to receive and retain the toe and heel straps respectively. The support plate may also have post apertures for receiving and retaining heel strap posts.

A heel traction device for attachment to a heel of a shoe or a boot comprises a traction platform formed of a flexible rubber material. The traction platform has a first face for contacting a ground surface and a second face for attachment to the heel of the shoe or boot. The traction platform defines a plurality of openings formed therethrough for receiving a traction element in each of said openings. A support band is connected to the traction platform for securing the traction platform to the shoe or a boot. The support band has a rear portion for attachment to a rear portion of the shoe or the boot and two opposing side portions for attachment to side portions of the shoe or the boot. Each of the side portions define a slot formed therethrough for receiving a strap.

A mid-sole traction device for a shoe or a boot comprises a traction platform formed of a flexible rubber material. The platform has a first face for contacting a ground surface and a second face for attachment to a mid-sole of the shoe/boot. The first face is spaced from the second face. First and second protrusions are formed on the first face. The first protrusion has first and second ends, each of which defines an opening for receiving a spike. The second protrusion has first and second ends, each of which defines an opening for receiving a spike. The second protrusion is separate and spaced from the first protrusion. A first slot is formed in the platform and is located near a first peripheral edge of the platform for receiving a strap. A second slot is formed in the platform near a second peripheral edge for receiving a strap.

A multi-surface and traction sling configured to be stretched over shoes or boots that does not utilize any metal or hard surfaced traction elements, including spikes, cleats or springs, on the bottom surface. The multi-surface traction sling is composed of a generally flexible and stretchable sling and a traction sole that is much less flexible and possesses a high coefficient of friction.

A footwear traction device is provided that is removably attachable to an item of footwear. The footwear traction device comprises a traction portion having one or more traction elements on a bottom thereof, a heel support portion disposed at a rear traction portion, and a forefoot support portion disposed at a forefoot traction portion. A cable extends through cable guides or channels and attaches the traction portion, the heel support portion, and the forefoot support portion together. A cable reel device is rotatably operable to adjust a length of the cable to selectively secure and unsecure the footwear traction device to the item of footwear. Shortening the length of the cable tightens the traction portion, the heel support portion and the forefoot support portion inwardly against the item of footwear, thereby securing the footwear traction device to the footwear.
