An ideal all-around performer, Crescent Moon Gold Women's 13 snowshoes provide female winter sports enthusiasts with a combination of flotation and maneuverability. The unique, teardrop shape is ergonomically designed to ensure that women can maintain an easy, natural walking stride in snow and ice, making it easy to climb and hike over trail and backcountry conditions. The frames of the snowshoes found in Crescent Moon's Women's Series showcase steeply shaped toes and an exaggerated teardrop shape. These features cater to the female snowshoe enthusiast, accounting for the fact that, on average, women have a shorter walking stride than men. Gold 13 Women's snowshoes sport Crescent Moon's innovative step-in Single-Pull-Loop (SPL) binding, featuring a molded polyurethane stirrup that captures your foot with a single pull of the loop strap. The SPL system results in equal tension across the harness without the need to fuss with several individual strap adjusters. To close the binding, a polycarbonate buckle ratchets your heel snugly into place for a secure and comfortable fit. Once locked, it will not slip or loosen. In addition, Crescent Moon has applied the aeronautical engineering principle of redundant design to the binding mechanism. With six rivet locations securing the binding strap to the frame, you could cut the support strap in half and still make it home with your binding intact. To ensure optimal flotation, Gold 13 Women's snowshoes are balanced to distribute your body weight across the entire shoe. This design also makes them easier to pull out of the snow, so you don't have to work as hard to walk, hike or climb. The unique teardrop shaped platform is based on the shape of your foot, wide at the ball and narrow at the heel. Instead of forcing you to waddle, the ergonomic design helps your feet clear away from each other with every step, ensuring a smooth, natural stride and allowing you to concentrate on your adventure.
