Homemade Snowshoe Toe Clips
The Uppers of an Old Pair of Shoes were Used to Make a Set of Toe Clips for Snowshoes
The uppers from a pair of worn-out shoes may be made into a serviceable set of toe clips for snowshoes by cutting them off, as shown in the sketch, and fitting them to the lacing of the snowshoes. The clip is fastened in place by passing the tying strap through slots in the former, under the lacing of the snowshoe, and then around the ankle in the usual manner of fastening.—Richard F.
