A binding system for attaching a boot to a snowshoe wherein a greater percentage of the energy from the movements of the boot is transmitted to the snowshoe binding and the snowshoe which then assists in more efficient movement of the snowshoe. The binding system also provides increased control of the snowshoe. The binding system comprises resilient elastic flexible material (18) attached to the perimeter of the boot and straps (13) looped through the front of the toe area of the boot to points in the front perimeter (10) of the snowshoe, and also a resilient elastic strap (16) around the instep of the boot attached to the rear section of the snowshoe.

Why it's free to use
- Filed July 30, 1997. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended July 30, 2017.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 30, 2019.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
