30% Off Snowshoes. Atlas Snowshoes.
REI is clearing out all their snowshoes. That means all the major brands: Tubbs, Redfeather, MSR and Atlas (especially Atlas) are on sale.
The snowshoes to look for on sale are Atlas’. Their welded frames are stiffer and stronger and the binding pivots well but flexes a bit, so it feels a lot better on the knees and ankles when the snow gets hard and icy. Also, if you live in an area with mad, fluffy powder - make sure to get shoes that are rated for 10-20 pounds more than you weigh - better float and all. Since I saw them early this monring they’ve already sold out of the mid-sized model, so these should be grabbed fast if you’re looking for deep-snow shoes or snowshoes good for carrying you and a pack (no direct links to REI items, so hit REI.com and search for the item#’s for these sale prices):
- $114.93 on the Atlas 825 snowshoes, 25 inches long and rated for 120-200 pounds
- $179.93 for the Atlas 1030 showshoes - item# 703040, 30 inches long & they carry 170-250 pounds.
