The Kahtoola KTS Steel Crampons are lightweight, flexible walking crampons designed to fit almost any footwear. Ideal for hiking, trekking and even running in winter conditions.
Due to the flexi centre bar and simple binding system the KTS Crampons will fit pretty much any footwear. The major plus point of these crampons is that you don't have to buy specific, crampon rated boots - they will fit any walking boot (We would recommend however that they are better suited to boots, as opposed to shoes, because of the high ankle strap which may cause chaffing).
The Kahtoola KTS Crampons are lighter and pack smaller than regular crampons, making them a great choice for alpine trekkers and mountain backpackers who may encounter patches of snow and ice on their route. They are great for glacier crossings and Ski tourers will also find them very useful.
As they do not have front points, the Kahtoola KTS Crampons shouldn't be used in high mountain terrain or as substitutes for mountaineering crampons. They are however perfectly suited to 'hill and dale' walking in winter, to give added security in icy conditions. Made using Chromoly Steel, they are very hard wearing and durable
