Like GB said the grivel new classic crampons are strap crampons which means they will work with anything from ski boots to tennis shoes. Most people prefer a neumatic crampon to the strap as its a little easier to get a secure fit. So if you're buying a crampon at the same time consider the neumatic version of the g10. but the new classic will work great too.

It's my understanding that the New Classic binding doesn't need any welts or other specifics in boot design. Although I've never tried these bindings myself, I've been led to believe that you just do up the strap and your crampon is on. It should work on any boot you care to use.
