Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great snowshoes! weight is featherweight, straps are an amazing design and the grip is awesome! These are very well made snowshoes and i'm happy with my purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best snowshoes ever! Not that I expect my current pair to fall apart—I’m sure they won’t—but still, when you get a great deal on a backup pair, it’s important to take advantage—in case of an apocalypse, you know. So, I did!!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Binding crushes forefoot Just got the latest 2022 design and returned it due to crushing force exerted by the front strap. Would probably be fine with hard toe boots, but mine have a pliable toe box where the strap tightens over the ball of the foot. I tried for an hour moving foot position back and forth but there was always pressure on the outside toes that I’m sure would be painful by the end of a hike. Pretty and lightweight though.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from The pin broke 2km on first use The shoes are nice, the new entry system is a wiz and the Straps are a bit small. Unfortunately, the shoes broke shortly after purchase due to a failed pin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great! I ordered these for the guys in my family as they were hesitant to go snowshoeing with me because of the hassle they always felt with traditional bindings. No more complaints and whining, lol, now that they have the Lightning Explore! These ones are so simple, only 2 straps, click in place, stay firmly closed even when breaking trail in deep new snow. No issues with these at all.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from the notched straps I bought this pair snowshoes. On the third hike, the notched straps have loosened. to be continued....

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Bad design, decent company follow up I purchased these snow shoes a couple of weeks ago and took them for the first time this week. About an hour and change into the day, I noticed one of the bindings had become very floppy . I removed the snowshoe and discovered that the pin holding the binding to the frame had sheared off. I cut the trip short and had to posthole in mid calf snow for about a mile to get to a more firm surface for the return to my car. I contacted MSR immediately, and to their credit, they were very responsive. Apparently the "clevis pin" which holds the binding to the snowshoe came off. Based on the photos i provided, they said "all you needed was a clevis pin, and you'd've been back in business" and that "this is a rare case/doesn't happen often. " I wouldn't expect to need to carry a "clevis pin" as a spare part the next time I snowshoe. Bottom line: I like the ratcheting system which makes shoe/boot adjustment much easier for those with arthritic hands (like myself) I think MSR has a design problem here. I would have rated the product one star, but I appreciate the prompt customer followup, so two stars it is. And I would definitely order some "clevis pins" along with the snowshoes.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Best from two world the straps are easy to remove. It lacks a strap in the middle. I added it personally. best outfit super satisfied. good flotation on the snow. I can't say anything about sustainability. It's difficult to descend in a straight line on a certain slope.
