TheFitLifeCarbon Fiber Trekking Poles – Collapsible and Telescopic Walking Sticks with Natural Cork Handle and Extended EVA Grips, Ultralight Nordic Hiking Poles for Backpacking Camping (Green)

Delivered early. Ordered for my sister who has had back surgery a while ago, but finds herself needing support walking. Has a cane, but finds this walking stick to work better for her. It is adjustable, light weight and sturdy.

We bought a set of these almost 2 years ago and just had one damaged by the airlines slamming a door on one, so we have bought another set. These poles are great. We were wanting lightweight and quick adjust and these have that and more. They are well made and come with several types of tips. I would highly recommend these.

My last pair of walking poles were over 30 years old when I thought about a carbon fibre set. Walking poles can be very expensive and put me off for a long time in buying a pair.I saw these and thought, either they were an absolute bargain or that I’d get what I paid for.Turns out these are excellent poles. The build quality is not quite as good as a top of the range pair, which is to be expected, but they have stood up to my daily hikes in the Lake District for 20 months without any signs of wear or breakage.I always walk with two poles as the ground can get quite slippery here, especially during the winter. The tungsten tips are as new (my last pair, after 32 years, were the same). They are super light-weight and warmer to the touch than my old pair of aluminium poles. The hand grips took a little adjustment, as they were slimmer than what I’d been used to. I have small hands and they feel fine, so I’d say they’d be a good fit for women. Not sure if you had big hands though. The clips operate perfectly and offer an excellent grip. Nothing worse than a walking pole suddenly collapsing when you slip. The clips can be easily tightened by turning the nut slightly. No tools required. There’s some light surface rust on the very ends of the threads of the metal clips. It isn’t affecting the operation though and doesn’t seem to have worsened. I don’t treat my poles with any respect like washing them, so I’d say the surface rusts is mentionable only in passing. The detachable baskets are fine but I did manage to lose one when it came unscrewed on it’s first outing (found on the way back down). The baskets are of the screw-in type, so you can’t screw them too tight or the plastic threads slip. I did have to fix mine with cable ties and they’ve remained in place ever since. Judging by the few baskets I’ve seen on my walks I’d say this is a general problem! I mentioned the grip being relatively slim but I’ll also say the hand grip could do with some re-design. The grip is in two sections; the top being cork and the lower part being compact foam. The cork section is moulded with a forefinger cut out. I’d like to see the palm area with more grip though as the cork isn’t the grippiest of materials. The lower foam section is ribbed and works well. It had a raised base area to help prevent slipping. I’ve got used to the grip with / without gloves so I’m being quite picky where the hand grip is concerned. I couldn’t work out if the wrist straps can be removed so ended up cutting mine off. I’ve never used straps on any poles and find their dangling just gets in the way.For the price these are tremendous value. They are light-weight, reliable and, on the whole, well designed, using decent materials. They include several baskets and tip protectors. They can collapse quickly for packing and are quite thin, making carrying in the hand more comfortable. With all the colour ways they are also a useful way to differentiate if several family members use them (especially if you’ve carefully set yours to your preferred hight).Definitely recommend these.

Leichte Wanderstöcke , gut zu verstauen am Rucksack. Ich habe sie mir gekauft weil man sie klein verpacken kann. bringe sie locker und die Sitzbank von meinen Roller wenn ich zur Anfahrt meiner Wandertour den Roller nehme. Würde Sie mir für den Preis wieder kaufen.

Compre este par de bastones. Y solo puedo decir que la atencion al cliente postventa que he recibido ha sido excelente, Solo puedo decir cosas buenas del producto y de la atencion recibidos. Son unos bastones ligeros y muy practicos, Hay que cuidarlos como a cualquier producto, bueno algunas personas quizas somos un poco brutotes y luego no quedan bien. Pero ante el problema que me surgio con los bastones (un cambio de puntas, y un desgaste en uno de los tramos) El servicio postventa ni me pidio mas detalles, me hizo un recambio. Rapido, excelente. Por eso escribo esto, porque pienso que merece la consideracion, tanto del producto como de la empresa. Un sobresaliente,
