Crampons

[Neil Blood]

I usually wear crampons when I’m on the riverbank, as they are an absolute lifesaver on slippy riverbanks.

I’m a size 12 and an XL size pair of crampons, just about fit on my neoprene lined Aigle wellies. Problem is my Grub Boots Snowline, which I wear when it’s really cold are a bit chunky and I can’t find any crampons which will fit. Any suggestions please?
