Buy Crescent Moon Gold 15 Backcountry Snowshoes for Women - Electric BlueCrescent Moon Gold 15 Backcountry Snowshoes for Women - Electric Blue Product Description:
- 29" x 9.5", 4.2lbs per pair, recommended for women and their gear up to 200lbs, designed for backcountry snowshoeing
- Platform: Our Tear Drop shaped frame provides outstanding maneuverability without loss of floatation. This unique shape allows you to walk and run naturally without changing your stride or waddling. The frames are made with 6063 aircraft grade aluminum tubing and tig welded for strength. The decking is lightweight, durable, highly abrasion resistant, and quiet, noticeably different from plastic snowshoes.
- Traction: Aggressive 3 crampon stainless steel traction system provides outstanding grip in all terrains, but particularly in hard pack and icy conditions, and on climbs and traverses. Crescent Moon is the only snowshoe to have a toe claw which is important for digging in when climbing hills or mountains and helps with push-off when hiking or running.
- Made in Boulder, CO, USA using environmentally considerate manufacturing processes and components. Our snowshoes are 95% recyclable through our take back program. Limited lifetime warranty.
- BINDING: The Crescent Moon SPL (Single Pull Loop) binding has been recognized as the best binding year after year by the media, testers and customers alike.The all foot encompassing binding system is made of a flexible polymer which wraps around your foot and provides excellent support and comfort and will not come out of adjustment. With a simple pull of the loop on top of the binding the entire harness system is tightened - or loosened - with one hand - even with gloves on! The heel mechanism is as simple as ratcheting forward to the perfect setting. It is a quick and easy entry and exit. Features spring loaded cam and ratchet buckles.

Crescent Moon's unique toe claw provides something other snowshoes don't; front point, ice grabbing, toe-first traction; the design is intuitive and allows your foot to begin its natural and complete rotation with every step - whether you're walking, running, or climbing, you use your toes first - why other's don't make their snowshoes with toe crampons is a mystery, but we believe you'll have a better snowshoe experience if you use equipment which allows you to move naturally. No mystery there! * Made in Boulder, CO, USA using environmentally considerate manufacturing processes and components. Our snowshoes are 95% recyclable through our take back program. Limited lifetime warranty. * The Gold 15 Backcountry model is the first off-trail snowshoe specifically design for women up to 200lbs (including your gear) and comes highly recommended for that purpose. The exaggerated tear drop shaped frame is a perfect match with the SPL (single-pull-loop) binding, which makes them remarkably easy to walk and hike in while also providing great floatation. The combination of form and function in the Gold 15 makes it easier to haul your stuff, like all that wine and cheese, so you have more time to enjoy what you brought in. The Gold 15's may be the most compatible backpacking partner you will ever have. Make your outdoor experience the best it can be with a pair of Crescent Moons.

Great shoes! Best ones yet.
By M. S. Anderson
We run a lot around the trails in the back country. These shoes make it so easy to move. All other shoes seem to encourage walking. With these, we have no problem picking up the pace. They are very lightweight and yet rugged.

By Christina Callaghan
I bought these a couple years ago and they have been invaluable hiking and mountaineering. Both my mountaineering boots and hiking boots can be easily used with the binding system which provides a perfect snug fit. The crampon system is also top notch, gripping securely on steep downhill pitches and of course the teardrop design can't be beat for ease in walking. I'll be happily using these for years to come!

Great Shoe/Binding System
By cosmojr
Crescent Moon snow shoes have the best binding system I have ever used. The shoes are good also but the binding makes this brand a must buy. I have found that the women's shoe is cut too narrow and the front of the shoe is elevated too high. It doesn't cause an issue but for my wife it didn't make a difference in your stride compared to the men's or regular shoe so we went sent back the women's and got the men's. It may make a difference in other women's stride. Over all whichever model you pick you will be happy.This style shoe will not keep you afloat as much as traditional shoes will but with the binding and light weight it makes up for it. I still will use by old rawhide and wood Michigan's for those deep snow conditions once in awhile just for the fun of it.
