The Petzl Vasak Leverlock Crampons are designed for mountain and glacial travel. The Vasak provides comfort for walking and plenty of power for glacier climbing. The Vasaks semi-rigid design flexes a bit for a more natural gait and is extremely versatile. Length adjustment is tool-less and fast in support of your choice of footwear and also suggests the possibility of sharing crampons with a partner.These come with two flat front points for increased bearing power, thin-sectioned points for good penetration on ice, the next two points are inclined to give stability. The ten walking points are separated to respect the asymmetry of the boots and to limit the "rail" effect which increases the risk of slipping. Leverlock, for boots with heel welts. The Leverlock has a flexible binding at the front, heel bail lever with a wide range micrometric adjustment at the rear.

  • Semiflexible design combines rigid support on steep angles and flex for natural walking comfort

  • Low-profile Antisnow plates help prevent sticky snow from balling up beneath your feet without interfering with the projection of the points

Not all crampons are created equal and Petzl has raised the bar with this model! These crampons are simple, durable and very functional. I have beaten mine up for two seasons now walking on snow, ice and rock and they are still going strong (okay maybe a bit dull now). The fit securely on my boots and I've never had them pop off unexpectedly. The anit-snow plates work great and you never have to worry about them falling off like some of the others models on the market. If you're looking for mountaineering or alpine crampon look no further.
