Crampons (grips) for snowshoes  

SORRY WE ARE SOLD OUT FOR THE SEASON.

A regular pair of traditional wooden snowshoes has one inherent problem---the flat bottomed shoe is very slippery. So, trying to walk on ice, or up an incline, can be very difficult. What many snowshoers need is a little more grip to the snow.

To solve the problem, we've come up with a crampon kit. After bolting a crampon to the underside of each snowshoe you'll have that extra bit of traction you need to reduce slippage.

Pictures speak louder than words so have a look below, you can click on any image to enlarge it.

Each kit contains:

  • 2  - Aluminum Crampons (4.5 x 3.5 x 3/4 inches)

  • 4  - Double Ply Reinforced Rubber Gaskets

  • 12 - Bolts and Washers

  • 12  - Nylocks (nuts - keeps bolts tight)


"Worth their weight in gold - even though they are made of lightweight aluminum"

Made in CanadaInstallation Notes:  PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

  • Your snowshoes should be in good shape, installing these on OLD or dried out webbing is not recommended.

  • At a minimum you should be using 4 bolts per installation.

  • Bolts should not be touching any leather webbing.  This is important so the bolts do not wear through or damage a piece of lacing.

  • Crampon InstallationBolts should be tight so the crampon doesn't move. (I can't stress this enough)

  • Putting the snowshoe across the arms of a chair will give you room to see the best fit and have access to both side of your snowshoe.
