By allowing your feet to flex naturally, Aspect snowshoes improve stability and balance while providing deep crampon penetration for maximum traction. The Atlas PackFlat bindings feature quick lashing straps that accommodate varied footwear including large snowboarding and mountaineering boots. As the name would suggest, these bindings also collapse flat for easy storage and travel.In addition to the perimeter frame teeth, Aspect snowshoes are outfitted with stainless steel Holey 1 toe crampons.
