The Salewa Alpinist Pro crampon is a versatile, robust stainless steel step-in crampon for technical ice climbing, mixed routes and general mountaineering.
The low profile keeps the foot closer to the rock or ice giving you greater control while the sharpened steel points make short work of hard ice. Tool-free adjustment in the base makes it quick and convenient to size. Made to accommodate boots with a heel and toe welt, including ski boots.
Underfoot, twelve steel points provide traction over icy routes while a multi-ply stainless steel flex regulation bar works like suspension, providing dynamic movement that allows the crampon to flex with the foot as you climb. The two parts are designed to fit together - points inward - to be stowed safely when not in use.
The Alpinist Pro features anti-balling plates. This pro-active design works to prevent the build-up of wet snow and ice underfoot, which can otherwise render the crampon's grip ineffective and lead to slips and falls.
The low weight makes them great for the fast-moving alpinist negotiating challenging ascents on back-country ski tours or mountaineering expeditions.
The Salewa Alpinist Pro Crampon delivers durable construction with a practical design to give you a product you can rely on to help get you to the top and safely back again.
