Making a shoe specifically for women was a good idea and Crescent moon created a series of shoes for women. The Silver 13 is the same frameas the Gold 13 but features a lightweight aluminum crampon system and new for the 09/10 season is the redesigned binding for increased control and comfort.. Like the other women's shoes in the Crescent Moon line, the Silver 13 has an exaggerated teardrop shape to make it easier to walk and snowshoe than traditionally shaped shoes to provide you with an athletic and natural stride.
