Outdoor adventure gear is often built to last a lifetime, but these new Crescent Moon snowshoes take things in a decidedly more eco-friendly direction for explorers to admire. The products have been launched as part of the brand's 2020/2021 collection and include the Eva snowshoes and the Luna running snowshoes, which are both crafted from Eco-Plastic foam. This material is comprised of non-edible components like corn starch and food waste that will provide a durable product that's perfect for use in temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius.
The Crescent Moon snowshoes are capable of breaking down and starting to degrade by as much as 50% in just four months time before achieving full degradation within one year. This makes the gear perfect for a single season of winter exploration.
