Redesigned for better performance, Crescent Moon's Gold 12 snowshoes are lighter than ever before, making them ideal for all sorts of running and fitness applications. The shoe's distinguishing feature is the single pull loop (SPL) adjustable binding, which distributes the tension equally across the foot for total comfort. Even better, the binding's cam-locking buckle heels won't loosen under any running conditions, so you needn't worry about the Gold 12 tripping you up only a half mile into your run. And thanks to the signature three-claw traction system, you'll have the confidence to attack any hill or trail. Additional details include a TIG-welded, powder-coated aluminum frame that's strong and durable; a teardrop-shaped design that delivers a natural stride and optimal flotation on the trail; and clear Surlyn T front decks. The Gold 12 snowshoes, which fit a wide range of shoe sizes (women's size 5 to men's size 13), weigh 2 pounds 14 ounces total and are backed by a lifetime warranty.
Key Features of Crescent Moon Snowshoes:
Binding
The most important part of a snowshoe is the binding. It should be easy and intuitive to use, provide support, be comfortable under all conditions, and efficiently transfer your energy to the traction system with each step you take. That's why Crescent Moon invented the SPL (single-pull-loop) adjustable binding. You'll get the response and control you need and get a great sense of confidence to go up or down any trail with a pair of Crescent Moon snowshoes.
The SPL binding is the easiest in/out binding on the market: simply place your foot in the stirrup and pull up (and getting out is just as simple). The binding holds your entire foot with equal tension throughout, resulting in better support and comfort toe to heel with side to side stability for significantly better performance than "open-toed" binding designs. This simple design is the result of extensive testing and years of use by Crescent Moon customers from around the world.
Platform (Frame and Decking)
To ensure optimal flotation, Crescent Moon Snowshoes are balanced to distribute your body weight across the entire shoe. The design also makes them easier to pull out of the snow, so you don't have to work as hard to walk, hike, or climb. The unique teardrop-shape platform is based on the shape of your foot: wide at the ball and narrow at the heel. Instead of forcing you to waddle, the ergonomic design helps your feet clear away from each other with every step, ensuring a smooth, natural stride while allowing you to concentrate on your adventure.
The frame is made from lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum tubing, which is shaped by hand and Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG), which is welded for incredible strength, durability, and reliability. The decking is made from an ultra durable, lightweight material called TGS (the good stuff) which simply won't tear or fail. It is extremely resistant to abrasion and textured for additional traction and performance. A new decking material is made using the most
