Abstract
A crampon comprises: fixing and guide sections; a wire element connecting the fixing and guide sections, the wire element passing through first holes of the fixing section and second holes of the guide section; an adjustment device adjusting an effective length of the wire element; right and left obstacles arranged in the guide section and passed round by the wire element to introduce changes of direction; a friction element introducing at least one change of direction of the wire element between the right and left obstacles. The wire element has first and second ends that are respectively fixed to the right and left attachments. The first and second ends are fixed independently and in removable manner to the right and left attachments.

Crampon comprising:
- a front section and a rear section designed to be arranged behind one another in a longitudinal direction, one of the front section and the rear section forming a fixing section, the other of the front section and the rear section forming a guide section;
- a wire element connecting the front section and the rear section, the wire element passing through a first right hole and a first left hole of the fixing section and passing through a second right hole and a second left hole of the guide section, the wire element being a textile wire element;
- an adjustment device located at least in the guide section and configured to adjust an effective length of the wire element and to adjust a maximum distance between the front section and the rear section;
- a right obstacle and a left obstacle located in the guide section and circumvented by the wire element to introduce changes of direction of the wire element, the wire element extending mainly in the longitudinal direction from the fixing section to the right obstacle and from the fixing section to the left obstacle;
- a friction part arranged between the right obstacle and the left obstacle along the wire element and introducing at least one change of direction of the wire element between the right obstacle and the left obstacle, the wire element extending mainly in the longitudinal direction from the right obstacle and from the left obstacle to the friction part;
- characterised in that the wire element has a first end and a second end that are fixed in static manner respectively to a right attachment and a left attachment of the fixing section, the first end and the second end being fixed independently and removably to the right attachment and the left attachment.
