I've not got Hoji boots but I did come across a mention of them the other day that might be useful - Mountain Guide Graham Frost seems to think that they're the holy grail of boots! And that Petzl crampons fit perfectly. https://www.frostguiding.co.uk/blog/712

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Any C2 crampon should fit those boots. If you are using them for winter walking the material of the points is important. For example you would probablt not want alu as it blunts very quickly on rock. I am not sure what the light alloy of these are.

Thanks both.
Agree whilst any C2 ‘should’ fit I’ve seen some reviews suggesting that some don’t given the slightly odd shape of the the front of the Hoji.

Tried some Grivel Newmatic style bindings on a Hoji at work when they first came in and would not recommend the fit.
The Petzl basket front bale fitted much better and comes as standard with the Irvis, Vasak and Sarken crampons.
