Here's a twist on the socks for Christmas cliché. AutoSocks are textile wheel covers that you slip over your car wheels in icy weather.
First launched in 2002, the manufacturer claims that snow and ice will stick to the fabric, improving grip without the cost and hassle of a set of snow-chains.
Weighing in at less than 1kg and easily stored, Autosocks can be kept in the car, out of the way until you really need them.
Depending on your wheel size, prices start at just £49.95 and can be ordered from www.roofbox.co.uk.
