Atlas 1027 Elektra Snowshoes - Women's

The women's Atlas Elektra 1027 snowshoes make getting lost in the woods fun again, with gender-specific articulation, aggressive traction and fatique-reducing features for your comfort. Women-specific, V-shaped frames are made from sturdy 6061 aluminum and are designed to facilitate a woman's natural stride. Nose and tail shapes are optimized to provide a balanced platform for stable footing and to facilitate an easy, natural stride. Spring-Loaded(TM) Suspension (SLS) uses offset webbing straps to create a springy platform beneath your feet that absorbs impact and allows natural side-to-side foot flex. Heel-lift bar provides relief for tired calf muscles on steep ascents while matching slope angle for better traction. Wrapp(TM) Swift bindings cradle your feet with easy-to-cinch straps, warm EVA padding and a technical, comfortable fit. Abrasion-resistant, lightweight Nytex(TM) nylon decks stay flexible when cold and stand up to the elements for lasting use. Steel instep crampons supply sure-footed traction on icy and snowy terrain; heel cleats provide superior downhill traction and parallel side rails secure grip during traverses. The recommended load specification for Atlas Elektra 1027 snowshoes includes weight of hiker with gear.
