Crampon rating: C1
A highly popular, lightweight walking crampon, the Grivel G10 Lux is designed to meet the classical requirements of general mountaineering and winter walking.
It also performs well on mixed terrain thanks to shorter points, which reduce leverage and fatigue on small footings.
Suitable for use on B1+ rated boots, the G10 Lux comes with anti-balling plates for safety and a crampon bag for transportation, as well as the New-Classic binding system for easy fitting onto most crampon-compatible boots.
The G10 Lux is the ideal crampon for serious winter walkers or UK mountaineers where climbing or intensive use is not expected.
Grivel: Forging a Place in History
From a blacksmith’s forge at the foot of the highest mountain in the Alps, Grivel have become world leaders in the manufacture of crampons and ice axes.
The oldest company in existence making equipment for Alpinism and climbing, Grivel began forging agricultural tools in a small, metal-working factory in Courmayeur, near Mount Blanc, in 1810. Nearly 100 years later Henry Grivel commercialised the first crampon prototype, using re-forged railway ties which provided the best-quality steel around.
Today, their Cramp-o-Matic, Air Tech and New Classic crampons, along with Munro, Brenva and Matrix ice axes, are used by climbers and Alpinists everywhere, helping to forge their reputation as masters of their mountain craft.
