Ghost replaces steel chains with an abrasion-resistant TPU matrix, an ultra-tough material that cuts bulk without compromising strength. Twelve heat-treated stainless steel spikes deliver aggressive grip, while a hybrid elastomer harness sheds ounces and balances stretch and structure for a secure fit.
Twelve Hardened Stainless Steel Spikes Per Foot
- Heat-treated, corrosion-resistant 0.36" spikes dig into icy terrain for confident grip
Abrasion-Resistant TPU Matrix
- Ultra-tough polymeric base replaces steel chains underfoot to reduce weight without sacrificing durability
Hybrid Elastomer Harness
- Features stiffer TPR at the toe for security and stretchy TPE at the heel for a snug, lightweight fit
Articulating Rivets
- Allow spikes to move independently to improve grip on uneven terrain and minimize snow buildup
Patented Reinforced Eyelets
- TPR inserts embedded at harness connection points strengthen key stress areas for long-term reliability
Includes ripstop nylon tote sack for compact storage
