Quickly change any shoe into a micro crampon.
Nortec says
MICRO CRAMPONS light and safe winter trekking and approach. Designed to meet the needs of trekking, light mountaineering. Due to the crampons plates and to the velcro band ensures an excellent fit to the ground on ice and hard snow.
Our Verdict
These are very quick and easy to attach to any shoe, they are best used on winter treks, when ice and snow are underfoot on well-trodden paths. The velcro band above the foot ensures a tight, custom fit .They stop you from slipping on ice and give you added grip on snow, which not only gives you a better feeling of security, but also makes walking easier. These are not to be used in place of “real” crampons, which should be used for technical mountaineering routes, but instead, for hill walking in the snow, I would also always advise using hiking poles in any conditions you need to use the Alp 2.0 Micro Crampons, especially on descents.
