Blue Ascent snowshoes made by MSR, durable with straps and metal clamps. - Brand: MSR - Model Name: Ascent - Color: Blue - Country of Manufacture: USA - Features: With straps, metal clamps The rubber on the straps was replaced last season, so it's soft. Unused since replacement. I've used various types, but the strap type provides the best fit. Once you get used to it, you can put them on and take them off quickly. Thank you for viewing. Please only purchase if you understand that this is a used item.
