LOVE these snowhoes!!
i love the overall ease and women's-specific fit of these snowshoes. i wear size 9 boots & the bindings adjust to fit securely whether i wear a lined winter boot or unlined spring boot. and the bindings are easy to adjust even with a gloved hand whether at the beginning of your trek or on the trail. i have not used the heel lift yet but it's nice to know they're there. overall, these are lightweight & portable, easy to throw in the car or in a pack, yet still reliable and sturdy in the snow. they tend to slip on inclines despite the metal 'teeth' which can be frustrating and they throw snow as you step - these are the only drawbacks i found using these on dozens of outings over the past several months (and the only reason i gave these 4 stars rather than 5) but frankly they're so great in many other ways it's ok.

great buy
I have had shoulder surgery and can't ski, but still like to be out
in the mountains. I really like these snow shoes. After renting
different kinds and trying different ones, I know these are the best for me. I can walk through any kind of snow. Off trail is good
they don't sink down in the snow too far and are very light. The side teeth really help me because I can only use one pole and
I find it easier to keep my balance. These snow shoes have given
me back some of my freedom and a way to see alot of terrain.
I am 5' 3" 106 lbs and these snow shoes fit me perfectly.
Thank you

Great Shoes!
The shoes have just the right amount of float and maneuverability for backcountry showshoeing. The bindings are a dream to adjust and get in and out of. This is a great shoe!

Great Snowshoe with awesome bindings!
This is a great snowshoe! They are a perfect design for women, and the bindings are so easy to use--you can be in and out of them in seconds. They also stay secure, even in the deepest powder and on the longest treks!!
