Review for model:

For four days I used size L on icy trails in the Tatra Mountains. The crampons seem durable, the rubber is thick, they fit the shoe well and don't shift—I didn't have to adjust anything during several hours of use. The metal parts are also solid; despite walking on rocks, I haven't noticed any damage so far. They work especially well on steep ascents. It's important to choose the size according to the manufacturer's recommendations, as they are not adjustable. The Velcro strap provides extra stability and doesn't come undone, but it won't make up for a poor fit. The price could be lower, as I bought a similar model in another sports store a week earlier much cheaper. Maybe the higher price is due to the solid and lightweight case included with the product. As usual, lightning-fast delivery from Militaria.pl—I placed the order in the evening, and the next day before noon it was already in the parcel locker in Zakopane.

The product is solidly made, gives the impression of being very durable and I hope it won't let me down. The spikes are quite strong and should provide good grip on ice and hard snow.

I bought the crampons quickly after an unsuccessful order on Allegro. I wanted anything that would give me stability on the trail, and I got a really solid product. Size L fits great on Salewa shoes (size 43). The rubber, even after several hours of strong stretching, did not lose its elasticity, and the spikes held well during steep ascents and descents. I also walked on hard ground, and the spikes - apart from some minor scratches, which is normal - look like new. If I damage them in the future, I will definitely go for this model again.
