Atlas Montane Snowshoes
Explore the deep powder of the backcountry with the Atlas Montane snowshoes. Their top-notch tubular frames, comfortable bindings and sharp crampons inspire confidence to roam freely.
- Aluminum Reactivâ„¢ frames change from cylindrical to elliptical to increase strength where they bear the greatest load for better flotation and stiffer, more responsive frames
- Comfortable and easy-to-use Wrapp-BCâ„¢ bindings are lightweight and feature sleek crampon-style yoke bindings to help eliminate pressure points while ensuring a secure fit
- Wrappâ„¢ Swift bindings blend a technical fit with comfort and ease of use, thanks to the positive toe locaters, warm EVA padding, and straps that cinch and release seamlessly
- All-Tracâ„¢ toe crampons provide traction in all directions; wider traction tabs on the sides and corners complement sharp front and rear points for confident hiking
- Precision-focused, Spring-Loadedâ„¢ Suspension (SLS) design suspends the snowshoes close underfoot so they can move freely with their intended articulation
- SLS absorbs impact, flexing naturally from side to side and allowing deeper crampon penetration into the slope for a compromised stride
- StabiLock rear traction is weight-activated, optimizing weight distribution to the serrated traction elements for sure footing on the most technical terrain
- Flexible Nytex decking is forgiving and quiet when hiking in the cold, providing durability without the weight
- Roller buckles on the heel and ankle straps allow quick, easy and intuitive access in and out of the bindings

Bad product from a bad company
I bought a pair of Montane Atlas snowshoes in early January 2025. I took them out for a 1.5-hour hike (with a windchill of -30°C), and noticed tears in the material that connects the mesh to the frame. I returned the product to the retailer, and managed to get an exchange, but only with much reluctance. They told me that the tears were due to improper use. With the new pair of Montane snowshoes, I went on a snowshoeing trip at the end of February (again, with a windchill of around -30°C), and the tears were even worse. This time, I contacted Atlas directly to explain the issue with both pairs of snowshoes (a total of just a few hours of use). They simply replied that this part wasn’t covered by the warranty and that it was due to improper use. Worse, when I asked if they had any repair suggestions, they told me they didn’t have any options in Canada. I had the same pair of snowshoes for 20 years (from another company) and never had a problem, so I don’t buy the "improper use" argument. Anyway, what kind of improper use can you have with a pair of snowshoes when you’re just walking in the snow? Over the past 25 years, I’ve dealt with several outdoor companies, some of which offer impeccable service and live up to their reputation. With Atlas, both the products and the service are very disappointing. It’s better to choose another company.
Wouldn't Honor Warranty -- Binding Disintegrated
Used these snowshoes a few times each winter and always carefully stored them -- but the rubber bindings and tail deck completely disintegrated. My partner's older snowshoes, by contrast, are in great condition. Despite the clearly defective materials, Atlas wouldn't honor their warranty. I sent photos and explained the problem, but they stated they have only a "limited lifetime" warranty -- emphasis on "limited." Although the warranty is written in a way that it appears to cover defects in materials, Atlas simply refused to cover anything after 1 year. When I requested clarification on what was covered for a lifetime, they ghosted me (despite my reminder email). I then saw that another reviewer had a similar experience (see below). So, basically, they sell a disposable snowshoe. DON'T TRUST ATLAS.
Material fell apart, warranty not honored
I purchased 2 top end pairs of these snowshoes several years ago (11-13 yrs ago). Used a season or 2 backcountry skiing, then hung them up in garage. This year went to use, and both pairs literally had the rubber disintegrate and broke apart in multiple locations. Not repairable, nothing worth saving. REI had no record of sales older than 10 years but went to bat reaching out to Atlas. Atlas Rep said lifetime warranty is on expected product lifetime… whatever that is or means is not my understanding. If it falls apart because materials are bad in 5, 10, 20 years it should be covered. Obvious material issue and refusal to accept responsibility!! Will NEVER RECOMMEND this companies product. Lifetime warranty means NOTHING. Buyer beware
