She was quite pleased that her toes were free and no longer being squished by her boots. Observe that she isn’t wearing Injinjis. She doesn’t even own toe socks! Being of Irish descent she had no problem with the cold. Her boyfriend (who submitted the pics) was cursing his decision to wear insulated slip-ons rather than his KSO’s.

Just to be clear, Laura was wearing boots while snowshoeing. The Sprints went on after (and were no doubt a welcome relief for her feet).

Nice job on coming up with a creative birthday present for Laura, and thanks to Laura for letting Chris share your experience with us!

Do you know anyone who has used them FOR snowshoeing? I want to use them for this, the trek model, but can’t find a snow shoe that would be compatible. Thanks!

Seriously? You want to snowshoe in these things? That sounds a little foolhardy unless you intend to bring along boots to put on once your feet start getting frostbitten. Sheesh, snowshoeing!
