I am excited for you. We have only used these snowshoeing and they were fine. The straps are short so they aren't easy to use with mittens. I do plan to use the poles for hiking but it is still winter here. I wish I could have given you a better answer.

They tend to be a little bit bigger in size so I'd try the 80lbs size first. If that is too small, try the 175lbs. They're around $10, so it's better to try two different pairs to be sure. Smaller would be best to start with. Good luck...

I'd buy the larger size. My daughter got these when she was 5'5" and about 105 lbs; they worked no problem. She's now 5'9" and 140 and they still work great.

Size 8, he is about the size my daughter was when I bought hers and I got her an 8. They work better and stay warmer when they are more snug than loose.

I am pretty sure just the snowshoes are rated to 180 lbs. with the tails it brings the rating to 250 lbs. hope that helps. There is more specific info on them on msr's website.

They are small, my boys wear size 9 and it fit perfect to that size, I would get a rip stick, these I bought for my boys did not last long, maybe a month, not meant for anyone over 150lbs also.

This is what I used to make sure I got the right size. Hope it helps. Its from the Lucky Bums website. Remember size is in Centimeters. Look at where it says "Snow Sports Helmet Sizing Chart". I think I was between sizes so I went to the next largest size. Nice thing about Amazon, you can always exchange it or refund if its not right. http://luckybums.com/sizing-chart.aspx

Hi, think arabian are commonly small horses, think small boots would be the best option for an 150 cm horse. I putchased medium size for a holsteiner 165 cm and he is comfortable with them.

@Adolph H. - I purchased the extra small - I am 5'5", 145 pounds. My pair seemed a little more snug than I am used to but after a few rides they seemed to break in. I would order a large - I'm afraid extra large would be too loose.

I am 5' 8" tall and use mine for both bare-booting and snowshoeing. I wear a pair of fairly thick snowboarding pants, so I bought a size large to ensure the gaiters would fit over them. I have been very happy with the product and with the size.

My dog is a 55 lb Labradoodle and the medium fits about right. These are a bit stiff and can be difficult to get on. I would think you will want the large size. You can cinch them up at the ankle until your dog fully grows into them.

I have five and half years old boy myself. I think this is too big for my kid for sure - both size and weight wise - he is a bit lighter side of his peer group. I chose this one for myself and I am weighing definitely more than 100 lbs. I remember this snow shoes are for 80-160 lbs range weight. I hope this helps.

I'm 6'1" 230 size 13 shoe and I bought a size XL. I wear one layer of good insulation and they fit a little snug. Buy big so you can add insulation especially fishing in cold waters. Worth every dollar!

I live in Atlanta so snowmobile boots are not common wear down here. From what I could remember from living in Michigan twenty years ago the snowmobile boots are thick and a bit oversized on the outside compared to a regular boot size. The boot chains I ordered for my work boot size required a little effort to stretch and pull over. It seems as though they could be stretch more but you might want to consider a size range a little bigger than your normal size. I would suggest getting two sets of two sizes because they are worth their weight in gold when it's icy outside.

You buy according to your body weight, and not according to your shoe size. So a 200lb person with a size six shoe needs a bigger snowshoe than a 100lb person with a size ten shoe.
