Nortec says

Quick fit crampons made by an elastomer interconnected to a tread stainless steel structure under the shoes realized through a combination of micro-rope, connectors and crampon plate. The crampons allow you to move in perfect safety on the snow, ice and low adherence surface (mud undergrowth, foliage, etc.).

All metal components in stainless steel. Heat treated crampon plates to a greater mechanical resistance. Nevertheless, due to the stainless steel’s high carbon content, light superficial oxidation/rust’s traces may appears.

14 steel 8 mm long crampon’s spikes for excellent stability, perfect grip and walking-running comfort.

Hi-tech silicon elastomer tested up to – 60 °C for a quick a comfortable fit and perfect positioning of the light crampon.

Revolutionary construction’s system with micro-rope and crampons plates. Special micro hi-resistance stainless steel rope to minimize the weight and to improve the comfort under the shoe. Size adaptation system (Pat.Pend.).

Our Verdict

These ultralight crampons are great for trail runners who like to venture out in snowy, icy conditions. They are the lightest Crampons Nortec make, not designed for heavy trekking or climbing obviously, just running over slippery surfaces.

They will fit over most trail shoes. They pack down really small into their own tough little carry case so you don’t have to worry about them damaging things in your pack.

The bright orange design means you shouldn’t be loosing them any time soon.
