With over 550 square inches of flotation surface each. These inflatable snowshoes pack easily folded up, rolled up, laid out flat, or wadded up and stuffed where ever. The material is NOT a plastic or vinyl. It is 30 mil Deerfield urethane that maintains it toughness and flexability even at sub zero temps. I have personaly tested them to 29.6 deg. below zero and the manufacturer of the material has tested it down to 40 below. These snowshoes were originally designed with a protective outer layer, however, the outer protective layer has been omitted. Due to the extream toughness of the material we decided that all the outer layer did was add weight and bulk. When showing these snowshoes to prospective retailers and end users, I get asked how tough they are or what if they get a hole in them. That is when I hand them a peice of the material and a 16d nail and tell them to go ahead and atempt to puncture it. It can be done but it is very very hard to do.
