The REI Traverse Shocklight women's trekking poles provide quiet stability and support so you hear the sounds of nature and not the clicks of poles.

Women-specific design is lighter, shorter and features a smaller grip than its unisex counterpart
Shock-absorbing poles reduce fatigue while improving stability; lockout mechanism creates a rigid pole when needed for more efficient climbing
Shocklight shock absorbers weigh less than common spring-loaded mechanisms and won't rattle within the shaft as you walk
Internal twist-lock mechanisms apply a wide area of pressure against pole walls to lock in length adjustment
With the Stop Lock system, poles won't come apart; system makes the pole sections into 1 unit for security and stability
Twist-locking pole sections let you tailor the length to fit your terrain: make them shorter for the way up, longer for the way down
Strong 7075-T6 aluminum 3-section telescoping poles extend to a maximum length of 49 in. and compact to 26 in. for easy storage and transport
Soft EVA foam hand grips are sized for a woman's hands and have an ergonomic, contoured shape that is easy to hold; adjustable padded neoprene wrist straps add support
Fitted with trekking discs and extra-durable tungsten carbide tips; included tip protectors are strictly for travel/packing protection, not intended for hiking

Imported.

Comments about REI Traverse Shocklight Women's Trekking Poles - Pair:

These seem like great poles-inexpensive, lightweight, comfortable grips, but they are very short and would only be adequate for someone 5'6" or under on a descent. I am 5'9" and they were much too short fully extended.

Comments about REI Traverse Shocklight Women's Trekking Poles - Pair:

Just got back from hiking the Panorama Trail in Yosemite. I'm a flat lander and after a few miles my knees reminded me in no uncertain terms that, yes, I'm over 50. By the end of the hike my legs had turned to jello and I was relying heavily on my poles for balance. Thank you for creating a well made product for those of us who still long to be outdoors even tho the body complains!

Service and delivery comments:

Bought these at the Stockton store. Wish I had paid attention to the name tag of the woman who assisted me (she had hiked Half Dome the day before I was there). She was very helpful ... and very sweet to my granddaughter who insisted in interupting our conversation often. Stockton staff ROCKS!!!

Comments about REI Traverse Shocklight Women's Trekking Poles - Pair:

Bought these because I have back and knee problems and I'd been told they would not only help with that, but that they also are quite handy on slippery slopes and in creek crossings. I haven't been disappointed yet! I've used them in everything from sun to snow and they've held up. I have a hard time telling if they're locked in position or not when I open them, but they haven't collapsed on me yet so I think they're great!

Comments about REI Traverse Shocklight Women's Trekking Poles - Pair:

I went on many hikes in Colorado during the month of August, including two 14ers, which I had not planned on doing. These trekking poles gave me the confidence I needed to go over streams, wet rocks, rocky terrain, and helped ease the impact on my knees coming down the mountains. Great!
