Love it

2 years ago

After multiple comparisons on trekking poles and 7 months of use. This one is just the right weight and the shock absorbers are a plus. I have not need to replace the spikes yet. I picked up an extra trekking pole for a family member. It's held up really well in flats, hills, and mountains. I can adjust the length on the go. A really sturdy item that I can add rubber feet if the ground changes to concrete(rarely used in this landscape). Very happy as I feel I my knees are not being used a lot like before without a trekking pole.

shock absorbers make BIG DIFFERENCE!

2 months ago

I’m a 73 year old grandma. I chose these Leki poles to get the shock absorbing technology. I am pleasantly surprised how much load these poles look off my legs ankles and feet! I can go much farther without feeling any pain! Easy to use and adjust. I added the rubber tips and look forward to many more short hikes!

Very light pole with great grips, no absorption

5 days ago

Extremely lightweight with nice grips. The shock absorption is unfortunately very minimal, which is why I bought these. You can barely feel it. If shock absorption isn't a consideration, it's a great hiking pole.
