That's them! Or at least a similar one, as mine are slip-ons vs. the velcro strap of the YakTrax. You barely notice they're there and they do a decent job or keeping you upright.

I have considered shemaughs, scarves, over mouth etc., and have even considered a gas mask to run in.
I hate treadmills with the utmost passion, because they don't feel realistic to me.

I have to run every day for monthly psts and it is starting to snow here.

Please don't crucify me yet, I know it sounds stupid, but I need to run to stay in my contract. I would be extremely grateful for any advise on the subject.
I haven't had a problem leaving my mouth uncovered while running in the snowy/cold weather. It's a bit uncomfortable at first but once the blood gets pumping and you get warmed up, you'll be fine. Traction is my main concern.
