"Designed for optimum performance with the smallest, lightest frame Crescent Moon has ever made. The Crescent Moon Gold 12 features a lightweight 'race' binding with secure tension lock buckles, aluminum crampons and a smaller diameter tubing to reduce weight.

"This is a great shoe when you use it for what its made for -- running. I am an avid runner and I decided I would try out a pair of these "running snowshoes" that everyone was talking about. They were definitely worth the price. They have one of the fastest binding systems and have a very aggressive bottom."
