Two things: the front part of the bindings didn't accommodate the toe box of my regular Keen winter boots...no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get the boots any farther into the bindings. Then when trying to tighten the bindings, the plastic was incredibly inflexible out in the cold. (This may also have been the issue with the toe box not fitting.) It was in the single digits that day and they just wouldn't flex enough to secure them probably. I returned them. I realize these are the entry level snowshoes, but seriously... If you have the funds, splurge on the Boa bindings. So far, those are awesome. The poles were fine, except it was challenging to adjust the height since my hand strength isn't what it used to be. You had to twist them and there was just no way to grip the poles as you tried to do this so collapsing them each time for transport/storage would have been frustrating. Spend more and get poles with some sort of lever for making adjustments.
It was supposed to come with gaiters and poles but when it arrived it's just the shoes.
