A wonderful example of the variety in snowshoe and snowshoe design.  Are you decorating in modern mountain or rustic chic?  Perhaps you just appreciate the artistry.  These snowshoes were made by the Chestnut Canoe Company for longer trail hikes.  Their narrow and long design suggests recreational use with heavy loads.  These are durable wooden frames and the rawhide is strong - these snowshoes were built to last. Beautiful and original dark leather bindings.
