"I bought these snowshoes for my boyfriend. The snowshoes were a bargin and perform well in deep snow. However, the bindings only have one secure connection to the shoe which results in the foot making a twisting motion. Also, the cleats are not as agressive as other manufactures."

"My husband and I each bought a pair to use for our first time (in a LONG time) snowshoeing and were very happy with these snowshoes. They are light weight and the bindings are so easy to use. Once they were on we never had to stop to adjust them at all. The price was great compared to alot of others we looked at. They seem quite durable and we hope to use them for many years to come"

"I like these snow shoes. I weigh 185 and mostly walk on packed trails although I initally made the trails in 3 feet of snow. Shoes work fine for both. don't need any larger size. I like the bindings better than my other pair of name brand shoes. A little heavier than name brand but bindings offset slight weigth gain. Shipping was average time. I have used them for 25 hours so far. No problems with them. We purchased a set of YC 822 for house guests who want to experience the winter wonderland with us. We live in the Adirondacks of NY State. Plenty of snow to walk on."

"I used my snowshoes for the first time today. They were great ! I have never snowshoed before, but I didnt have any trouble getting use to them. I have a bad knee and I found snowshoeing was a great way to enjoy the snow without pain. I would recommend the Yukon Charlies to anyone who has never tried snowshoeing before."

"I am very satisfied with these Yukon Charlie's snowshoes. They were listed as adult men's shoes but decided to take a chance and buy an extra pair for myself. Not only do they fit my husband and myself but they are easy to use, comfortable and very light in the snow.
This is definitely a great purchase and I recommend these to anyone looking for a great product at a great price.

"I used this purchase and was able to do what I needed to do just fine. I purchased the next size up because of the weight limit but found that the larger set for me was a little cumbersome. I would prefer the shorter snowshoe but overall it will work out just fine."

"I am new to snowshoeing and purchased these shoes as a starter set. I was pleasantly surprised at their ease of use. They are quite easy to get on and off and seem to work great in any snow conditions. I use them mostly to get around my property filling bird feeders and such and a daily walk with the dog across our frozen lake. I would recommend these shoes to anyone wanting a decent snowshoe for a decent price."

"I purchased these for my husband for Christmas. Even with tax, shipping and dollar conversion the value was great. However, a portion on one snow shoe was sewn backwards and as a result the clip was facing inward and we had to take it to the local shoe repair to correct. Other than that they're great. We both tested them out and love them. The ease in which to adjust them, especially when your hands are COLD is really a bonus!"

"Couldn't be happier, wished I'd purchased an extra pair.
Very durable, light weight, and the easiest shoes to put on and take off. I'm the envy of all my snow shoe friends.
Thanks again Overstock, another A+.

"Do yourself a favor and buy these snowshoes if you are in the market. This is the 7th pair of Yukon Charlie's snowshoes I have purchased for various members of my family and friends.
Some of my pairs I have had for 5 years without any problems or part failures.
They are equally as durable and functionable as models costing twice as much.
