DURHAM, N.C. (November 2, 2017) – Yaktrax, the active outdoor brand synonymous with snow and ice traction, brings extra muscle to its winter 2017/18 consumer efforts with the introduction of the all new www.yaktrax.com website and an updated marketing campaign.

These efforts underscore a commitment to advancing the Yaktrax brand by helping to educate the consumer on how to maximize winter fun and safety while simplifying the process of shopping and buying the right traction device for any activity.
