The Kahtoola MICROspikes are ideal for walking, hiking and running on snow-packed paths and trails or working on steep mud and grass. This pocket-sized traction system attaches easily to running, approach and everyday shoes as well as boots.
The 2015/16 version comes with it's own Tote Sack to keep the Microspikes from scratching your other kit, or so you can hang them from your bag/harness. But thats not all the extra 2 spikes at the rear (quad design) compared to the original 2 gives improved traction throughout each foot placement and improves things on downhills markedly. The upper body of the crampon has also been improved using a more durable material, which means they can use less of it making for a more slimline pack size. New technology within the moulding of the crampons upper means that reinforced discs at each eyelet provides massivly increased durability.
Strategically placed stainless steel spikes are connected to a dynamic flex-chain with a tough elastomer stretch shoe harness. The Microspike chain adjusts itself to grip most surfaces. S = UK 4-7, M = 7-10, L = 10-13, XL = 13-15 for shoes, might be worth adding a shoe size for walking boots and 2 for mountain boots.
