Reliable performance at cheap price

Rating:*****

If you need crampons for basic winter hiking these are fine and cheap. They are easy to adjust, will fit any boot (including flexible boots like my 3-season Montrails) and are fast and easy to put on. The front and back rubber bracing wraps nicely around the boot without causing any pressure points, uncomfortable rubbing or blood flow interruption (hence no cold feet). I wore them for prolonged periods both uphill and downhill and had no trouble at all. Bottom line: great value for basic winter walking / glacier crossing / etc...

Ultimate Non-Skid

Rating:*****

"Ultimate non-skid" as per a comment from a passer by at the trail head of our 12 mile trek. They worked perfectly for the conditions we were in (iced over snow) at San Jacinto Mtn C.A.. My girlfriend wore these and did not slip once but did tear a hole in her pants. They fit her great, were not too tight, and were very easy to take on and off. Would definitely buy a second pair as long as these ones last a respectable period of time.
