Using your Hillsound Trail Crampons is easy. First, choose the right size for your boots according to the size chart. Then, stretch the elastomer harness over the sole of your boot until it fits snugly. Make sure the spikes are evenly distributed and in contact with the ground. When you're out using them, be careful on hard surfaces like concrete as it can damage the spikes. Avoid using them in areas where there's no snow or ice as it won't be necessary and can cause unnecessary wear. After each use, clean the crampons with a brush to remove any dirt or snow. Store them in a dry place to prevent rusting. If you notice any signs of damage to the spikes or the harness, stop using them and consider getting a replacement.
