One week old, used for one three mile run. Cheapest price I could find on the internet was what I paid for them at Gaynors-39.99 plus 4.50 postage. I'll sell for 35.00 including postage. I'm selling them because they are an XL [size 9-11] but they're slightly too big for my trail shoes-I've since bought the the size L instead. Slight cosmetic scratches on spikes but really, they're in absolutely perfect condition. Grab a bargain and get out on the white stuff

Hi Stevieworkshop- If you're interested and have a big enough foot, I've got a set of hillsound trail crampons size xl (size 9-11), less than a week old, used for one 3 mile run. They were slightly too big on my size 10 trailshoes but I liked them enough to buy the large instead. I think the sizing would be ok if you used them on boots or if you're at the top end of the scale in trailshoes. 39.99 plus 5 postage at Gaynors- I'll sell them for 35 including postage

Cheers redscotti. Tried out the large size last night- much better. Expect to see some xl crampons truning up on the classifieds soon

I've got some Hillsound trail crampons (Not the pros) for use on trailshoes. I'm a size 10, I've got the xl (Size 9-11) but they go on quite easy and after a 3 mile run on mixed snow the rear section had slipped and the rear chains on both were loose. I've seen a review on Amazon that suggests always sizing down , which would be a large (size 7-9). So has anyone got any experience with this?
