"The Camp XLC 490 Crampons strap onto everything from trail running shoes to beefy mountaineering boots to provide solid purchase on hard snow and glacial ice. Strap these 17.3-ounce aluminum Camp crampons onto your approach shoes to cross the 200 yards of snow before your alpine rock route, or use them for winter ascents of Colorado 14ers. The XLC 490 Crampons include long horizontal front points for shear resistance on steep snow and the occasional 'shrund crossing."

From REI:
"Ski mountaineers, glacier travelers and mountain endurance racers take note, Camp XLC 490 crampons offer serious performance without the weight. These super-light crampons are made from 7075-series aluminum alloy for superb strength and minimal weight. Durable design distributes force applied to a single spike across the entire platform, making spikes less likely to bend or snap. Semi-rigid 12-point crampons make light work of low-angle ice terrain while providing exceptional durability. Equipped with a universal strapping system for maximum versatility and fit on most boots. Ideal for beginner to expert alpinists, competitive ski tourists and backcountry adventure racers. Not suitable for use on vertical ice or mixed terrain."
