XLC Nanotech Crampon
Camp USA’s XLC Nanotech Crampon is a lightweight, aluminum crampon that weight-conscious ski mountaineers look for, but steel front points lend an edge when you encounter icy or even rocky objectives. Aluminum points get shredded if you ever try to climb ice or rock, so Camp USA made the front points out of Sandvik Nanoflex stainless steel to solve that issue. Camp’s innovative 3D shaped construction (pressed, not bent) makes the aluminum frame sturdier than standard aluminum frames. It’s compatible with most alpine touring ski boots, telemark ski boots, and rigid mountaineering boots with toe and heel welts.

I’ve used several crampons before, but none compare to the CAMP USA XLC Nanotech. They’re lightweight yet sturdy, and the automatic adjustment system is fantastic. Perfect for both beginners and experienced climbers.

Great product overall, but I found the automatic mechanism a bit tricky to get used to at first. Once I figured it out, though, these crampons worked like a charm in extreme conditions.

Solid crampons with excellent grip and durability. The automatic feature is a huge plus, though I wish they came in more color options. Still, highly recommend for winter climbing.

Very good crampons for the price. The automatic fit is convenient, and they’re easy to adjust. Only downside is that they can feel a bit bulky on thinner boots, but overall, great performance.
