These crampons are awesome. I have used them on all sorts of snow from rock hard neve to the softer mushy stuff. The Sabretooths bite into all of it very solidly--including on more moderate slopes and really steep stuff. The micro-adjustment system is also great because you can fit these spikes exactly to your boots so there is no unwanted foot movement in the crampons. On my Lowa boots, these fit like a glove after only a few small adjustments. There isn't a better crampon that can cover such wide variety of uses out there.

What model Lowa's are you using? I have the Expert GTX and some say the front clip on some crampons don't fit correctly on these Lowa's.
