Alongside our snow chains and snow socks, we stock a small range of winter motoring essentials at market-leading prices: a snow and ice windscreen protector, a telescopic snow shovel, and a snow brush. Each one earns its place in the boot for winter weather - we'd especially recommend the snow brush, whether or not you're running chains.
Having a reflective safety vest in your car over the winter months is a very good idea, and the best way to be seen at night. Available in yellow, conforms to EU Standard BS EN 471.
This brass blade ice scraper is both durable and very effective and will clear even thick ice with ease.
It's lightweight, strong, really good quality.
Save time and cold hands by fitting this windscreen protector if there's a forecast for frost or snow.
This ice scraper, with a fleece lined mitt, makes clearing your windscreen a little bit more comfortable.
It's waterproof and an elasticated cuff stops snow and ice getting inside the glove.
You ought to clear the snow off the roof of your vehicle, as well as off the glass. If you don't then the whole lot may slide forward, once the metal roof has warmed up, and cover the windscreen. Not good! This is the best small snow brush we have found anywhere, with non-scratch bristles and an insulated handle.
Unique patented headlamp converters for continental driving. Beam Benders redirect the beam and do not block out the light. Self-adhesive. One size fits most vehicles, even those with curved headlamps.
It makes sense to keep a small shovel in your car so it's there when you need it. This one is strong enough to do the job, small enough to be hidden away when not in use. Superb value for money.
RUD's Quick Step shoe chain is the simplest and cheapest, but it still makes a massive difference between slipping and walking! All you need to do is to pull the superlastic loops over your shoe (small loop over the toe, large loop over the heel) and off you go!... One chain fits all shoe sizes.
This Maypole 3 tonne tow rope starts at 1.75m and stretches to 4m, eliminating snatching. Its drop forged hooks make it quick, clean and easy to use - there's no need to grovel around under the car looking for places to tie on or loop through. Just clip it into your towing eye, front or back. It's basically a big bungee cord, covered in a strong, orange sleeve.
These are well designed shoe chains, sold in pairs. The ice studs make an important difference when walking on iced-over pavements and compacted snow. The stretchy bit is silicone, not rubber, a very important feature as it's the rubber in shoe chains that tends to perish long before the metalwork wears out.

An easy to carry bag for cross country skis that also protects the bindings.
The RUD 'Bergsteiger' is a serious shoe chain, available in four sizes. It is standard issue to most European post offices, including our own Royal Mail!
Made of alloy steel, easy to put on, take off, and store and (amazingly!) self-cleaning, i.e. no snow and ice residue is left between the chain and the sole of the shoe.
