Komperdell Alpinist Snowshoes - 25"

good product

I had never heard of Komperdell, but what I read on the internet was positive. The price was great so I grabbed a pair. I figured with the Sierra return policy there was little risk. I was quite pleased with the snowshoes upon their arrival. Solid, quality construction was found. These will be great for deep snow and hitting the foothills! I only back from a fifth star because we have not yet had snow to use them, but they are exactly what I was looking for!

I used them twice so far in 1 foot of snow with hills and they felt awesome and stayed on my feet without loosening.

These secure nicely. They did well in both fluffy, deep snow and in wet, heavy snow. They are shaped nicely, so it is rare that I step on myself. The membrane is good quality, and they are nice looking. Heavy for backcountry, steep climbs.

Snowshoed 3 days in a row and the bindings never loosened or needed adjusting. Not necessarily the easiest on and off but not terribly difficult either.
