I’ve got the Hoffman Pro Thinsulate pacs in 12 & 14”. The 14” have the screw in studs for ice traction.

I wear them all winter and they are wonderful. I’d never buy another brand.

Not sure about the explorer but if they are similar in quality to the Pacs I think you’ll like them provided the foot bed matches your foot ok.

Btw - Black Friday sale going on now it looks like.
