Pros & Cons
Pros
Extremely easy to put on, strap tight, and hit the snow. Taking them off was equally easy by pulling an adjacent loop.
Used them twice while shed hunting in some steep mountains around 5500ft in elevation. The riser bar for going up hill works great. Came late in the season here in the sangre de cristo mountains.
They are super adjustable and i especially love the gray strap that adjusts at the toe. They fit fine with my size 13 insulated, winter hiking boots. My only complaint is with the back strap.
They feel pretty durable. Definitely not a deal breaker. But, on first glance - they look great and they were reasonably priced.
They are very lightweight but seems to be of good quality, and they look sleek. Not only are they light weight but they were incredibly easy to use & didnt require me to be constantly adjusting throughout my route.
Highlights
Quality
I have been very impressed with the quality of the materials used for these.
These are generally light enough and don't hinder your walking, and they don't seem to have sacrificed build quality the achieve that.
I did practice with the straps on my rug at home to get the hang of the strapping and save time at the trailhead.
Price
The first thing that drew me to wildhorn outfitters snowshoes was, in fact, the price.
Packaging/appearance

The product and the packaging looks like it's made by a legitimate brand that cares about their product, and not just some fly ... Read More
Competitiveness
I bought these to replace my tubbs and i have to say that i like them a lot more than the more expensive brand.

To get them on just slide in your feet and first time only adjust the heel strap then pull the black cord tight and to take them off pull the grey cord and slide out your feet

This was okay but if this was over rocks or pavement i would worry about damaging the crampons

I read several reviews where folks complained about those bending over easily but i suspect they must have been walking over hard surfaces in very shallow snow lt3in and probably weighed considerably more than i do

Snow gear needs to come inside and dry off after use
