Robert Babcock's Review of Grivel Ran - Traction

These have been outstanding for me so far! Last week I tried to hike to the Falls in Ousel Park but had to turn back 1/4 miles from it. I'd already taken one hard fall and the rest of the trail ahead was steeper and icier. This week I wore these Grivel Ran Traction crampons and it was a night and day improvement! Despite being even worse this week I zipped along like a mountain goat, never losing grip even once! These a game changer for sure.

They fit fine on my size 11 shoes, but would not stretch to fit over my size 11 pack boots. Probably an XL would have still fit my shoes while having enough room to go over my boots. The XL is out of stock and I'm not sure if they'll be back in stock before things warm up but I'll probably order them anyways just to have later.

Recommended!
