Great poles. Quick to assemble/put away, light to carry. I have taken these on several hikes and they are very sturdy. Cork handles are brilliant. Very good value for money. I am 5.6 and 100-120cm are the perfect size.

I’m really impressed by these cheap poles. I usually use expensive Leki poles, but wanted something small enough to go inside my rucksack if I’m scrambling or rock climbing. I didn’t want to buy lighter, but much more expensive, carbon fibre poles, as I didn’t feel I’d use them often enough. (I mainly planned to use my robust aluminium Leki poles still.) Putting these together, I was immediately impressed by how well-made they are. They actually feel slightly lighter than my Leki’s, but pack down to a much shorter length, so they will easily fit inside my rucksack. I’m 5’3”, and have preferred to use trekking poles set at a single length for 30 years now (regardless of whether I’m going up or downhill). The shortest setting on these (buying the shorter length option) feels very slightly longer than I’d usually set my Leki’s, but they will be far better than not being able to take poles with me. The handles feel comfortable, and I like that they came with a wide variety of pole end options, Velcro to keep the folded poles together, and a handy storage bag to carry them in. It is easy to snap the pole sections together, and the resulting poles are stable and sturdy.

I've definitely owned far better fold up poles, but I also paid 4 times the price for them. These are not super light weight, super sturdy, but for the price they are a very good option. Grip is very comfortable, they are easily to use and should stand up to your average hill walkers usage. Having broke many poles, in my opinion you won't find a super sturdy option that also fold up. These will pack into a rucksack nicely and as I said be a very good option for the price you pay.

I bought these to replace a pair that I bought in a charity shop. They were fine, but had a twist-lock that (i) wasn't very secure and (ii) was sometimes the devil's own job to release. There are lightweight and have a very positive lock. The lock is also very easy to release. That means they're either (i) locked solid and therefore safe to put your full weight on if needs be or (ii) unlocked for folding. They are very quick and easy to both deploy and fold down. In use, they feel very comfortable and certainly do make walking a bit easier and quicker. The conventional wisdom is that you can use Nordic walking poles for trekking, but not trekking poles for Nordic walking. These are trekking poles. I have no idea what the difference between the two walking styles is and (being indifferent to organised walking groups) have no interest in finding out. (I'm a grumpy old bugger and don't want to be bored to death by retired primary headteachers or social workers.) But what I can say, is that these are an excellent walking aid when travelling the footpaths and hilly areas of Britain. There are four points to bear in mind: 1 - when off-road, remove the rubber tip and use the metal end for much better grip. 2 - take very great care to make sure that the stick is well behind your foot or you'll almost certainly trip yourself up. 3 - watch a few YouTube instructional videos and learn how to use the poles properly and safely. It will take you a few hours to become fully used to them. 4 - and this is VERY important ... grip the poles as advised. If you do it right, you can use your hands to arrest a fall in safety; do it wrong and you can guarantee a dislocated or broken thumb if you fall. A word of warning about which length you buy: take the recommended measurements seriously. I'm a tad shorter than recommended for the longer ones, but I bought them anyway. Don't make the same mistake! These are just about comfortable for me on their very shortest length. If you are less than 5' 6", get the shorter ones.

Used these for the first time today. Assembly was simple - no instructions required. Manufacturing quality looks good. I see no weak points in the design. After a couple of minutes setting up height (make sure the locks are tight) and straps, I went for a longer walk than I am recently used to (I have lumbar stenosis). They helped me walk further and helped greatly with my lower back and thigh weakness. I walked for around 30 minutes and the straps did not loosen. First class!

Just retuned from a week hiking in the Dolomites and these poles really stood up to the challenge. Really impressed with the ease of clicking everything into place, setting the correct height, and the different foot types and carry bag. I wanted aluminium so it would withstand a few knocks and they’ve certainly had a few of those over the past week. The poles gave me a lot of confidence when navigating loose scree on the way down and helped me distribute weight for extra supposed on the way up. Very good value for money. Also, very comfortable and felt sturdy.

Overall these are very well made. Came on Friday and used for serious hiking that weekend. Just a couple of things to note. I wanted to use large ferrules I already had and liked (They do come with good ferrule selection that look well made) and noted they were a loose fit so used PTFE tape and small ziplock around outside before pushing on and they were fine. More importantly I'm about 5'11". My ideal length for previous poles is 110cm 43". The suggestions are that is too short for my height but 43" is what suited me on all terrain, climbing and descending. I took a gamble and bought the larger 115cm to 135cm thinking there would be some leeway. There isnt. The lower setting really is 115cm/45". I'm ok with this, The adjustable clip is at its lowest setting so cant slide anywhere and the clip can stay a little looser as result (previous poles clips have split). The little extra length is better for downhill. All in all apart form these minor things they are great, well made, well designed and satisfying to use. Handles feel like real cork and are light but strong. I think they will last for many years used how they're intended.

Great hiking poles, easy to assemble once you know how. They fold up small enough to put in travel case or attach to my backpack. I have only used them up to 600m but found them sturdy and reliable to take my weight when climbing down steep rocks and uneven ground. I'm 5'5" and they are a good length for me. They are lovely and light, comfortable on the hands and lock securely as long as you follow the instructions.

Le istruzioni di utilizzo dovrebbero essere un po' più chiare, ma il prodotto funziona molto bene. E' importante estendere la seconda e la terza parte, sotto la regolazione di altezza, per fare comparire il perno di acciaio che blocca le parti inferiori.

Used these a few times now, mostly for moderate difficulty walking trails. They've been solid and reliable. They stay at the adjusted length with no problems, and it is easy enough to collapse them down and store in the pack when climbing or otherwise not needing them while out on a trail. The poles are comfortable to use, although the wrist straps can get in the way a bit if you just want to hold them without the wrist strap around your wrist. The straps can chaff a little on the webbing between your thumb and finger if you hold it too close to the top. If it bothered me enough, I'd cut them off, but so far I've adjusted how I hold them and it hasn't been a big enough problem for me to worry about.
