Retrospec Drifter Plus

Yes, they are designed specifically for backcountry and mountaineering. The combination of aggressive manganese steel crampons and full-length steel perimeter teeth provides the necessary bite to maintain stability on icy slopes.

The integrated heel lifters are designed to reduce calf fatigue when you are climbing steep inclines. By elevating your heel, they keep your foot in a more natural, neutral position, which makes long ascents significantly more comfortable.

The double-ratchet system is engineered for a secure, customizable fit that holds tight even in challenging conditions. It is designed to keep your boots locked in place, preventing the slipping or loosening that can occur with less robust binding styles.

These snowshoes are rated for a maximum user weight of 250 lbs. This weight limit includes your body weight plus the weight of your pack and gear.

Yes, they feature a full-floating pivot system. This allows the snowshoe to rotate freely under your foot, ensuring a more fluid, natural stride rather than forcing you to lift the entire tail of the snowshoe with every step.

No, the Drifter Plus is not compatible with flotation tails. They are built as a rigid, one-piece deck intended for backcountry and mountaineering use where stability and traction are the primary focus.
