Redfeather Alpine snowshoes let you go high and deep into the wild country. The bindings provide a solid connection with just about any footwear."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Combining leading-edge components with recreational convenience, Redfeather's Alpine Snowshoe is an ideal solution for weekend enthusiasts seeking a quality backcountry experience without the extra costs of a mountaineering snowshoe design. Choose from Redfeather's new Pilot Binding System or the proven Ultra binding with Swiss ratchet heel closure. Redfeather's new Pilot Binding System has a free-sliding base plate that secures the front and back of the binding with one fastening closure, making it easy to find your size and keep it right all day. The Ultra binding has a stationary base plate with durable webbing on top and an adjustable ratchet heel that works best for those who like traditional binding systems. No matter which binding you choose, you'll enjoy durable Hypalon II decking, the same tough stuff found on expedition-quality snowshoes. Unlike other Redfeather offerings, the Alpine Snowshoe also has a Delta Hinge component that secures your foot to minimize lateral movement, so you keep your balance comfortably and consistently throughout your journey."

"This snowshoe rivals all others for ease of use and durability. The ultra bindings hold tight and adjust easily with even the thickest of mitts. I use these shoes both to approach climbs and for general leisure hiking in Northern Ontario and Northern Minnesota."
