Suspension for everyone. The 9 Series snowshoe uses Spring-Loaded™ Suspension for natural articulation of the foot over uneven and sidehill terrain, flexing the 6061 aluminum proprietary V-frame. With each step, SLS gives the All-Trac™ toe crampon deeper purchase, and the new tempered steel Tri-Cleat offers 360° traction under your heel.

Worked well for me | |
| Rating: |  |
| I bought these because the rental shoes were all out and these were the last men's shoes in the store. As a first time snoeshoer I had no problems and thought they worked great. We had packed powder and fresh powder and I did not experience any snow being thrown into the air. | |

| Got them as a gift for Christmas, and then we got a foot of snow. Had them out a couple of times already, and I love them. These have been perfect for a first time snowshoer. | |

| I'm a beginner, but my shoeshoeing partner is experienced and owns these shoes. We just spent an afternoon snowshowing in the Canadian Rockies. The snow was quite deep in places but we were on a packed down trail - easy walking despite the up and down terrain. We hadn't even cleared sight of the parking lot when the snow kick up from the Atlas 925 had already soaked the wearer's snow pants. She changed shoes with another member of the party who had on waterproof snow pants. He sucked it up and marched along. Several hours later, by the time we got back to the car - he had snow in every conceiveable nook and cranny up and down his back and boots. DO NOT buy these snowshoes. Based on my experience that day and based on my showshoing partners' multiple experiences wearing the shoe, as well as most of the reviews* I've read on this product, you'll be wet and sorry. (*I saw a review recently on the site, which is not on this page?, that asked why REI continued to carry the product. Good question!) | |

VERY Disappointing Performance | |

| I had read the reviews on the Atlas 925 snowshoes prior to purchasing. They said there was a problem with snow kicking up from the shoe. I disregarded the multiple comments and purchased the shoe regardless thinking "they are snow shoes and they are bound to kick up snow". I went snowshoeing over the holidays in moderate/heavy snow on both flat and hilly terrain with six others. My gators kept me warm however my upper thighs and backside were SOAKED within 10 minutes! The others in my party wore a different brand and had ZERO snow kick up. I was miserable to say the least. I went a 2nd time and wore good snow pants. The snow soaked through the snow pants following a two mile hike. This should tell you HOW much snow is being kicked up. I tried the others to determine if it was "me" however it was the shoe unfortunately. They really have rendered themselves useless at this point to me. I will need to purchase another pair:(. | |

Waterproof Clothing Needed | |
| Rating: | |
| I use these shoes a couple times a week for about 3-5 miles at a time keeping a pretty good pace. Unfortunately, I always have to wear waterproof shells and always have a hood. The SLS strap suspension system acts like a spring that takes the snow that is on the back of your shoe and flings it up your back. Every step you take. The faster you go, the higher it throws the snow. It can easily get inside your collar, and it will annoy the person behind you. Stick with shoes that have a free pivot to avoid this issue. The saving graces for these shoes are that they have a good binding system and aggressive cramp-ons. But you can find that elsewhere. After two years of waiting for the SLS to get broken in and stop throwing snow, I'll be buying a different set soon. | |

not the shoes for me | |
| Rating: | |
| I used these shoes twice on packed/icy snow conditions. The biggest problem was they kicked up so much snow as if I was in a snow globe. I don't think they were right for me, too big to begin with. I heard great reviews about them at the store, but returned them for MSR's hopefully these are better! | |
