TSL Original 2 snowshoes, dark grey

TSL Original 2 snowshoes, dark grey

Universal, flexible and soft high-tech snowshoes characterized by long durability, 3D frame design and practical BOA® binding. TSL 305/325/345 ORIGINAL 2 snowshoes are produced in three sizes and are suitable for beginners and advanced hikers in moderately difficult terrain. For those looking for high comfort of boot fastening and an ergonomic step necessary for long marches.

• 3D frame design – a single-piece frame molding made of high-quality plastics „Made in French Alps“. It contains 6 stainless steel spikes that can be replaced. Three levels of contact with the snow ensure full functionality of the snowshoe regardless of the type of snow, and you will have confidence on traverses. On hard snow and ice, only the sharp spikes are in contact, but when walking on wind-packed snow, the molded cross-pieces also start to engage, preventing the snowshoes from slipping. In soft snow, the entire surface of the snowshoe, including the arched edge, engages, preventing sinking or slipping.
• BOA® FIT SYSTEM – In addition to ease of use, a great benefit of the BOA® system is the even distribution of load on the toe of the boot, preventing overloading of the upper central part of the boot toe.
• COMFORT STRAP – the strap around the ankle is designed to optimize pressure on the instep and increase comfort and support while walking. The strap is composed of softer and harder material to be comfortable yet firm.
• Pre-setting according to foot length is simple and takes a few seconds.
• Practical bag – the snowshoes are supplied with a textile bag, which is suitable for their transport, storage and protects your other equipment from being cut by the spikes or teeth of the snowshoes.
• Front claw – with every step, a front claw with three stainless steel spikes extends at the toe, thanks to which you will not slip and will not waste energy unnecessarily.
• Hourglass shape – thanks to the ergonomic shape, the snowshoes fit together when walking side by side, so it is not necessary to walk with a wide stance, nor is there a risk of stepping on one snowshoe with the other.
• Binding size adjustment with lock – is fast, safe and does not allow the binding to shift while walking.
• Binding width adjustment – allows the use of snowshoes with footwear of various widths or snowboard boots.
• Tightening and releasing the ankle strap – can be done easily with one hand using a ratchet.
• Noise and shock absorber – is located under the heel and eliminates unpleasant noise when stepping.

Invest in snowshoes that will last a really long time

You are not buying TSL snowshoes for 2 to 3 seasons, but for many demanding seasons. They are used in rental shops for 10 to 15 years! Their high durability lies in the quality of production, which takes place in the French Alps about an hour's drive from Chamonix. Production is in-house and, among other things, also produces parts for the automotive industry or for aircraft manufacturers like AIRBUS.

Honest materials and local sustainable production and service

The plastic granulate comes from the Netherlands and is also used for the production of ski boots. Another guarantee of long life is the availability of spare parts for 20 years. Every part of the snowshoe can be unscrewed and replaced. Nothing is molded, because that would complicate service. TSL snowshoes are assembled again in our own production facility in the city of Annecy, which is about 30 minutes away from the molding plant. Local employees work here in a friendly atmosphere, some for more than 20 years.

Adjustable heel lift

TSL snowshoe heel lifts allow adaptation to any length of footwear so that the load on the heel lift is always under the heel. The heel lift forms a 12° angle with the snowshoe. The heel lift can be easily and comfortably activated and deactivated with the tip of a trekking pole.
