Frequently Asked Questions
Not necessarily, you can wear most outdoor footwear like hiking boots or insulated winter boots with snowshoes. Make sure the boots are waterproof and provide a good fit in the snowshoe bindings for comfort and stability.
To use snowshoes, simply strap them onto your boots using the bindings, ensuring they are secure. As you walk, keep your weight centered to maintain balance. Snowshoes allow you to float on top of the snow, providing extra traction and stability. It takes some getting used to, but practice will help you master the technique.
To extend the life of your snowshoes, clean them to remove dirt and snow build-up after use. Store them in a dry, cool place, perhaps in a backpack or with the rest of your kit. Regularly check the bindings for wear and tear before each use, and make sure they are functioning properly.

Whether you need to replace an old set of snow shoes or this is your first pair, we’ve got you covered. But what are the essential elements that make up an excellent snow shoe? From the materials used to the fit and grip, we’ll break down what each of our products provide.
Although our snow shoes are durable they are designed to be lightweight too. So, not only will they see you through your snowy treks, they won’t drag you down with unnecessary weight. Many feature a strong plastic base that can endure cold temperatures and icy terrain.
Comfort is also a priority when picking out a pair of snow shoes. Adjustable sizing is a fantastic feature our snow shoes offer. They quickly snap to fit shoe sizes 36 to 46. Heels can also be adjusted to locked, open, and raised positions.
Another important component of a great snow shoe product is the grip it provides. Stainless steel crampons, and front teeth enable you to grip icy surfaces without a worry. Good quality snow shoes do all the hard work for you. They reduce fatigue and allow you to go further and longer in the snow.
Finally, the whole point of snow shoes is to enable you to float across the surface of snow-covered landscapes. Therefore, take into account the width and surface area of the snow shoe and what kinds of terrain you need them for. A quality snowshoe has a wide enough frame to distribute your weight, preventing you from sinking into deep powder or soft snow. Larger snowshoes are typically better for deep snow, while smaller ones are ideal for packed trails.
To complement your new pair of snoe shoes, what about purchasing some winter poles ? These will help you travel across snowy terrain with ease. We even stock replacement baskets for your poles, perfect for navigating deeper snow drifts.
