Used these snowshoes a few times each winter and always carefully stored them -- but the rubber bindings and tail deck completely disintegrated. My partner's older snowshoes, by contrast, are in great condition. Despite the clearly defective materials, Atlas wouldn't honor their warranty. I sent photos and explained the problem, but they stated they have only a "limited lifetime" warranty -- emphasis on "limited." Although the warranty is written in a way that it appears to cover defects in materials, Atlas simply refused to cover anything after 1 year. When I requested clarification on what was covered for a lifetime, they ghosted me (despite my reminder email). I then saw that another reviewer had a similar experience (see Atlas Men's Montane Snowshoes). So, basically, they sell a disposable snowshoe. DON'T TRUST ATLAS.
