daveLok Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 Thanks for the advice, I will drop by Jim's shop sometime. In the meanwhile, if someone has first hand experience with these crampons, I'd appreciate to know what you think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layton Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 i do. they get the job done. make sure your tennis shoes aren't narrower than the front harness or your toes will be in lots o pain. the other brands seem to have even bigger and softer front harnesses for sufferin and front point loss, so these are good enough i guess. i've climb some vertical sections in my tennis shoes with these andd managed (with very numb toes) and haven't bent the shit out of them yet after extensive use. better than duct taping regular crampons onto my tennis shoes like i was doing before that's for sure!
