Kahtoola KTS Steel Crampons

Flexible, Ultralight Hiking Crampons for more Rugged Conditions

KTS Steel Hiking Crampons are made from chromoly steel with 1 inch points, 1/4″ longer and sharper to handle rockier terrain than the KTS Aluminum model. Ultralight and weighing only 23.3 ounces per pair, you’ll be able to tackle the most rugged terrain without any extra weight to haul around. The KTS steel hiking crampons fold down into an ultra compact package (8” x 3.5” x 4.75”) to save pack space, leaving plenty of room in your pack for all the necessities your winter adventures demand. Life time guarantee for the LeafSpring extender bar.

KTS Steel Crampon Technology

PATENTED LEAFSPRING® FLEX BAR
Flexes naturally with your footwear, for natural stride and ability to wear any type of footwear. Most crampons are not made to flex and are designed for use with rigid boots. When used with flexible footwear, the extended bar can break due to the added stress for which the bars are not designed. In order to move fast and light in non-technical terrain, flexible footwear is key. A crampon that maintains the flexibility of the footwear while adding traction can be a huge benefit. Kahtoola invented the LeafSpring® Flex Bar to solve this problem by combining multiple layers of thin hardened stainless steel in a novel way that reduces stress and provides an even flex that will last a lifetime.

FOLDING HEEL SUPPORT
Allows for optimum packability, keeping pack down size minimal.
