Tips

Always check crampon fit on your boots before heading out; adjust the link bar length for a snug, secure fit. After use in wet conditions, dry the crampons to maintain the stainless steel's corrosion resistance. For glacier travel, consider pairing with a compatible anti-balling plate if not already fitted.
