Hi, what's the difference between the Alpinist 8/10/12 toe-pieces? From product pics they look basically identical hey. Maybe the rubber bumper is a different color on the 8? Is the stiffness of the springs any different? Thanks!
(I have a broken 8 toepiece, but the only replacement available to me at short notice is a 10!).
Marker Toe Pieces
Whoops! It seems like the toe piece on your Marker binding(s) is no longer functioning as it should. Fear not o' fearless one, as we have spare toe pieces to resurrect your bindings and make them whole. All toe pieces are sold individually so you need a pair to make a frakenbinding.
Alpinist - A handsome black toe piece with the current ISI system, which facilitates easier step-in. Fully functional with locked uphill and unlocked downhill modes. Comes with the crampon receptor and mounting screws.
Update 2022/23: The Alpinist toe was updated with a rubber bumper and wider platform so less force is required to step in. This added 25 grams.

Hi Rhys, the springs do vary per model so it's best to pair the correct toe and heel so the release indicators line up properly.
