  Size Chart

Early-season mountain travel presents different obstacles than those encountered in warmer summer months, and being turned around because you were underprepared is not a fun option. We're pretty sure that was the logic from the Salewa R&D department when they made the Ultralight Mountain Spike Crampons. These spikes are sleek and straightforward, featuring a toe and heel elastic band that connects a triangular frame of spikes under your midfoot for sure grip on hard snow. Moving quickly in the mountains requires efficiency, and these spikes go on quickly, so you won't hesitate to put them in use. Since they weigh close to nothing (plus a few grams, we checked), running in the snow not only becomes significantly easier, but with their lightness, you can go faster, further, and have more fun doing so! The Salewa Ultralight Mountain Crampon; don't leave home without them.

  • Packable enough for a running belt, and light enough to forget about.
  • Efficiency of the on and off won't slow you down.
  • Hard spring snow and ice are no longer an obstacle.
  • 67 grams for the S/M and 71 grams for the M/L, so bringing them along is easy.
  • Included carry case will protect you and your running vest for just a few extra grams.
  • Orange color won't get lost in your pack.

Question from Trey
 
There isn't much information about these online.

How effective are they on ice?

Any crazy fit issues that might impact their usefulness on trail running shoes?

Do they pinch or bind up your toes?

I would be using them for early season 14/13ers that aren't technical enough to justify crampons.

Hey Trey,

These are quite effective on ice. They are designed to pack down very small so they don't have as many spikes as something like the  Black Diamond Distance Spikes. If you want something very light and packable with just enough bite then I think that the Salewa is great! The rubber is quite stretchy, so there are no weird fit issues, and it does not pinch or bind up your toes!
