The most useful add-on for any tripod, highly recommended
I am up to my second set of these indispensable spikes, having worn down the points over 10 years of hard use on my Manfrotto 190CX3. My only criticism, which also applies to Manfrotto tripod hardware too, is the poor quality nuts and bolts that are prone to corrosion: I replaced these years ago with marine-grade stainless steel allen bolts and friction-lock nuts.

Good bang for the buck
I have had my manfrotto tripod for many years in difficult and varied situations where due to hard use and accidents I had gradually lost all of the feet and was reduced to using the rubber caps. The caps are almost worthless and then I finally ordered in the replacement retractable spiked feet. I had forgotten how good they were. I use mine mostly with the spikes fully retracted but there are occasions when I need the spikes and I like the versa... Show More

Bling For A Boring Tripod
My tripod slides on certain surfaces like ice or packed snow, now it can dig in. The 190 tripods are light to start with, so any stability device is welcome. They can be a little boring too, but these feet make them seem more impressive. Installation is easy, but I was a little concerned how tight I could go before something stripped. They look metal in the photos, but are actually a hard plastic. The rubber feet are a durable rubber. Overall I'm happy with them. A simple item to improve a simple tripod.

Excellantly designed tool
This spiked foot set allows me to replace the rubber tips that came with my Manfrotto tripod with spikes for shooting in the outdoors on slippery surfaces, while a twist later I can use the tripod indoors. The ability to remove the spiked tips quickly, allows me to re-install the rubber tips which are allowed on airlines while the spike feet travel in my checked-in luggage.

Just like the old days
Back in the day these were standard on many Manfrotto tripods. They provides better traction outside. I used my tripod on uneven granite boulders and it stayed in place. THe rubber ubber feet are at least good as the ones that came with the 190CXPRO3. The only draw back is they add noticablyt to the weight of the my carbon fiber tripod.

Manfrotto spike feet should be standard
Have these retractable spike feet on both aluminum and carbon fiber tripods because of the ability to quickly adapt to indoor or outdoor surfaces. Truthfully, these retractable spike feet should be standard with Manfrotto carbon fiber tripods, not an option. Lower cost tripods, I understand these feet being optional.

Correcting Poor Tripod Design.
The carbon fiber 190CX3 tripod should have come with spiked foot. Probably to keep the weight and cost down. Retractable spiked foot is very necessary for outdoor photography specially in rough terrain. A must for HDR photography. This attachment works great. Would have given 5 star if it was not so costly.

Manfrotto product quality
I order it for my tripod 190XB with 802RC4 head. The construction is strong and it fit perfectly to the legs of the tripod. I find it also easy to install. Efficient for outside and in house purpose. It was the piece missing to be entirely satisfied by my tripod. Now I am!

Great Accessory!
I bought the 190XB tripod legs for my heavy spotting scope. The tripod is super sturdy-I'm so excited to have these spiked feet for the legs. 90% of the time, I use the tripod outside in the mountains. The spiked feet make my tripod even more stable in the uneven terrain.

It is what it is
I shoot mostly Landscape Photos so I believe the spiked feet are just an accessory that Manfrotto forgot to include, proably because it would make the tripod weigh a slight bit more. How ever IMHO I think the added function far out weighs the weight increase.

Spiked Feet Add Capability
I put these spicked feet on a Manfrotto 190XB. They go on easily (getting the original rubber tipped feet off was the hardest part) and a T-handle Phillips driver for installation comes in the set. They are well made and look like they'll last a long time.

these are a great addition to my tripod
Too bad Manfrotto don't include these on their tripods. I feel they are a must if you take your tripod outside at all.They work great, old feet a little hard to get off (they are glued on.These attach ouite easily, they do make the tripod slightly longer.

Manfrotto Retractable Spiked Foot Set (3)
I noticed that a lot of new tripods come with these as standard equipment, so i started searching for some for my ( old 7-8 yrs ) Manfrotto 055CX Pro4 Carbon Fiber tripod . Ordered these, put them on & i am really happy. Great product. Thank you B & H

Tripod Spiked / Rubber Foot Set
Fit and finish is very good. Easy to install. A bit afraid of overtightening )cand cracking fiber tube) or undertightening (and losing in mud). Considering drilling hole through and inserting small pin to prevent easy off.

Essential for outdood photography
I quite often photograph fungi in wet conditions and find the feet are great for preventing the tripod from slipping or sinking into soft, wet ground. The feet are really a must for all outdoor photography with a tripod.

Nice quality product
I love theses spiked feet, very easy to install it only took a few minutes and they really make a difference if you do a lot of outdoor shooting. I just don't know why Manfrotto doesn't include them with there tripods.

Great accessory for your Manfrotto tripod
Going to Alaska for winter photography and needed to change out the rubber tips for something that works on ice and snow. Easy to install and has the screwdriver in the backage!

Essential Outdoor Accessory
I don't see how anyone using a tripod outdoors can get by without spiked feet on their tripod. The situations I photograph in require the traction these spiked feet provide.

Stability Addition
Great addition to new 055CXPRO4. If you carry your tripod hiking or just wandering around in the woods these feet offer better traction than the rubber feet.

Perfect fit
My carbon fiber tripod came with rubber tips only suitable for indoor work. These spiked feet fit like a glove and I am now ready for the great outdoors.

Must have for Manfrotto 190 tripods
These fit great on my new Manfrotto 190CXPRO 3 3-section tripod. For the price, I feel like they should have included the spiked feet. C'Mon Manfrotto!
