Rating: - Changed my outlook on snow!I went snowshoeing with a friend this winter and loved how i was still able to hike and be outside with snow on the ground. Walking in snow is so much easier (on the ankles and feet) with these one. Since receiving them, i wore them every day to the dog park walking my dog. Even in just a few inches of crusty snow, they make my walks so much easier. They are light and easily come on and off. If you're a serious snowshoer, you probably want something more high tech. If you're just a leisure walker who has to trudge through snow in the winter, i'd highly recommend these! Rating: - Good basic snowshoesI'm new to snowshoeing, and would recommend these to others like me who are novices, up to 250lbs.

Rating: - Good beginning snowshoeThis is my first serious year getting into snowshoeing and hence, I found these after trying a few different kinds. I'm 210lbs at 6'3", and these ceratinly seemed to be the ones that fit my size and frame. Good points about these are the fullness of the shoe - there are not many holes in the overall shoe to allow much snow to come through on each step. They are very comfortable, during my first hikes in them they never bumped during normal walking and even some slight jogging. I found them to grab the snow just fine, and so far have walked in fresh powder (about 2 feet) and also packed areas, not noticing any serious difference in the shoe. Didn't notice any discomfort due to the ... Read More |
