Review on ⛄️ Hillsound Trail Crampon Pro - Ice Traction Device/Crampons with 10 Carbon Steel Spikes and a 2-Year Warranty by David Batte

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not as good as they look. If only they would stay on their feet

I bought them on Amazon and they arrived pretty quickly. I planned on wearing them while climbing Route 14 in Colorado. At first glance they are really sharp, they have a good system design. In actual use, they didn't fare too well. They are very narrow and for my thick feet (usually 11.5 wide) they were uncomfortable. I put it on top of a mountain and on the way down I bumped into a mailbox pretty hard. Before I could put on my snowshoes, my right crampon fell off and I didn't realize it until it was too late. A cat got stuck on a mountainside. They're great unless you need to use them in a real-world situation.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
