MSR does it again.

By Ranked #685 - Snowshoes February 24, 2006

I've rented MSR classic snowshoes before and have always liked them. After reading reviews and researching, I decided these were the shoes for me. The big selling point was the taper that allows a more natural walk rather than having to "Frankenstein" it. Even with the 6-inch tails I never hit my shoes like I did before. These are great for the weekend warrior getting out on trails. Even in deep fresh snow they worked well. The binding system is very flexible and adjusts to an array of different shoe styles. I like the option of hiking up in my snowboarding boots and then boarding down. That eliminates the need to carry two pairs of boots. The straps can flap around if not adjusted properly, but I haven't had any problems with them coming undone. I like how they pack down small and are easy on weight. Best of all they made by a company that is known for their superior quality and they are that cool MSR red! You won't be sorry with these shoes.
