Designed for recreational trail hiking in deep snow, the Atlas Men’s 8 Series Snowshoes give you all the high-tech features you need for staying stable and afloat without the big price tag. Atlas’ Spring Loaded Suspension system absorbs impact and lets your foot flex naturally. The Strapp binding features a full wrap strap with a molded, gender-specific fit and a one-pull UniLoop design, so you stay securely attached in deep fluff. The durable and lightweight aluminum V frame and Nytex decking keep you on top of the snow instead of up to your thighs, and the steel crampon and heel cleat grips icy trails.
Bottom Line: Deep, snowy trails call for the 8 Series.

All I *really* need out of a snowshoe

With my pack on I'm probably over the limit on these but since they (the tails) are a little longer than other models the float is still pretty good. I like the rubber and strap binding since it molds to a variety of foot wear (hunting boots, tele boots, sorel's, and hikers). I also like the binding since it packs flat when you squish the shoes together and strap them to your backpack. Crampon is light duty, not in durability just aggressiveness, but had no problems on wind blown snow-crete and ice mix on moderate grades. The description says recreational trail hiking, I'd say if you own crampons already you can push these way beyond recreational and not get into trouble. The deck frays at the edges for a nice broken in look, no compromise in function though.
Change me.
