Customers say

Customers like the performance, ease of installation, quality and value of the traction cleat. For example, they mention that it works well, the straps are easy to use and that it grips everything. That said, some complain about the size and durability. They say that the cradles are too narrow to wrap around their boots and that the toe cap is too small.

FITS MY SIZE 14 BOOT AND WOULD PROBABLY GO 16 AFTER THE EXTENDER

FITS MY SIZE 14 BOOT AND WOULD PROBABLY GO 16 AFTER THE EXTENDER
BOUGHT A PAIR FROM A COMPETITOR BECAUSE IT WAS CHEAPER. WOULD NOT FIT MY SIZE 14 BOOT. I ORDERED THIS BLACK DIAMOND CRAMPON AND THE EXTENSION BAR WITH IT. MY SIZE 14 BOOT EASILY FITS INTO IT. AS A MATTER OF FACT I HAD TO TAKE THE SLACK OUT. IT WOULD PROBABLY FIT A 16 FOR MEN. THE QUALITY OF THIS CRAMPON IS OUTSTANDING. I PAID THE PRICE GOING CHEAP. BLACK DIAMOND WILL ALWAYS HAVE MY BUSINESS. THANKS!!!!
