Trekking Poles
Adjustable aluminum trekking poles that fold compactly. Suitable for regular hikers needing poles that fit in a backpack.
$43.99
These 5-section folding poles are constructed from 7075 aluminum. They adjust in height from 115 to 135 cm using flip locks. When folded, they measure 37 cm, allowing for easy storage in a backpack side pocket or attachment to the exterior.
Included are tungsten steel tips along with rubber feet and baskets for various terrains. These poles are also compatible with trekking-pole shelters.
The product page indicates a weight of 785 g, but it is unclear whether this is for each pole or the pair. It is advisable to verify this before purchasing.
Why it works
- Folds to 37 cm for easier packing compared to telescoping poles.
- Height adjustable from 115 to 135 cm to accommodate different users.
- Includes tips and baskets suitable for mud, snow, and pavement.
Who it's for
- Regular hikers seeking compact poles for easy transport.
- Backpackers requiring poles for a trekking-pole shelter.
What to know
- Weight specification is ambiguous — may be 785 g per pole or for the pair.
- Flip locks may loosen over time; check them before each hike.
