   I recently bought these Wildhorn Sawtooth snowshoes, and I’m glad they came as quickly as they did. The day after they arrived it snowed over 18 inches. I was super stoked to get outside and try them out.Right out of the box you can tell they are a very sturdy construction. A buddy of mine had a different brand snowshoe break in half while he was using them in waist-deep snow just a couple weeks ago. You can tell these Wildhorn snowshoes are not going to break. Whatever they’re made from feels like high-quality material. I worry about that kind of thing buying products online. Other first impressions include their overall cool aesthetic. The colors and designs on them are true to the photos. Also, it’s difficult to tell from the photos, but there are spikes under the fore foot as well as a robust set of spikes under the heel plate. This is especially good for helping to prevent sliding when traveling downhill on slippery terrain. When traveling uphill the heel riser is simple to pop up, which relieves some tension on your calves.Once I got outside in the snow and strapped them to my feet I was pleased at how easily they fit to my boots. I recommend checking the heel strap length before you take them out, because it’s a little less pliable when it gets cold. Even so, once I had them on my feet they were totally secure. The toe straps cinch down and keeps everything right in place. Once they’re on you just forget about them and cruise. I was able to hike naturally and easily without thinking about my snowshoes. They do a great job keeping you afloat without getting in your way. I look forward to using them again.

   2022 update: used these again a couple months ago for a 6-mile hike through 1ft of fresh powder in northern Minnesota with my wife (girlfriend at the time of original purchase. I’m so happy I took a gamble on this company when they were just starting out. These snow shoes are still fantastic.Original: I purchased the larger pair for me and the smaller size for my girlfriend a few months ago. I did a lot of research before making the purchase, even looking at top brands. At the end of it all, I didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars for a pair that is made out of the same materials with the same dimensions.We have used these about 10 times already this past winter in Minnesota with 2-9 feet of snow. I’m 6′ 3″ and these did a great job at keeping me about the snow (though I did sink a little in fresh powder, that’ll happen with any brands). The heal stand was surprisingly a great feature to have, especially when walking up steep hills. The sawtooth design also gives the shoes that extra grip needed in various kinds of snow.I wouldn’t classify these as beginners shoes because they are a tad bit heavier than those that cost hundreds of dollars or because they’re less money. You shouldn’t have to spend an extreme amount of money for quality. With these snowshoes, you don’t have to. They’re incredibly durable and make hikes through the Minnesota steeper hills a breeze.If you’re worried about any added weight, go to the gym more often and get rid of those chicken legs.I recommend these snowshoes to absolutely anyone who wants to get into the sport or who has already been in it for a while. They’re going to last you for a long time.
