Sent me more pairs than I asked for this season....would not need another pair for what I do. Have no idea if they resolve your problem, you need to check that out on your own. Best snow plate (anti bot) design in the biz and why I prefer to use them when guiding anyone. Snow on crampons is one of the more dangerous items with someone who does not spend a lot of time in the backcountry during winter. Cheers.

Never tried these, and they wouldn't be appropriate for "real climbing," but they look tempting:

Yes, I saw those camp-usa crampons on-line; but one reviewer complained that the heel was too narrow for his boot- the same problem I have with the BDs.

The heel posts don't need to be on the side of the boot, they're fine lining up towards the back end of the heel. I wore the Contacts with some atrocious Hi-Tec boots this summer and they even fit on those!
