The Kahtoola Traction System (now called KTS Crampon) was developed by hand in a small family workspace called “The Shop” in 1999 and set the direction of our company to develop outdoor products that matter. The KTS was the result of founder and owner Danny Giovale wanting to improve safety for snowy alpine approaches, and a desire to create a product that would get people directly where they want to go.
