 Very Good Pole, but handle needs workOct 02, 2010
By E. Treants
"tree"
Overall I am very pleased with this Hiking Pole. Locks and expansion work well, but some of the details could be better. These cork handles are fairly rough and need to be a little smoother to be really comfortable. I do not wear gloves while using these poles - to warm in summer in NC - so can feel the roughness. I have another pair from Swiss Gear and those handles felt great from the first day.
The accessory footings and snow guard are all very flimsy, but the standard tip is all I ever use and it works well. If I used the other tips i would have to drop this to a 3 or maybe a 2 star rating. The red color is great and makes the pole easy to see at a distance - especially in the woods where extra color may be needed.
The adjustments and locks work well and hold great. It is easy to change height when going up or down steep hills and the loch holds the desired height well while in level ground. For the price, a very good bargain.

 Excellent Hiking PoleMar 28, 2011
By K. Smallwood
"Dream Eater"
I got this for my husband after he started taking dialysis to help him stay on his feet better (he is a hugggge man and no way lil ol' me can be a shoulder support for him!). It is easy and versitile for him to use in and outside the truck when I take him in for dialysis.
As is it adjustable, he can easily stole it in his bag that he keeps his snuggie in as he takes dialysis, and remove it, when he leaves the center. I would highly recommend it for anyone, as it can be use for more than hiking!

Works well for meOct 23, 2010
By Nan
I bought these hiking poles to give me a little more confidence as I tried to get back to walking after knee replacement surgery. They do the job very well.

Nothing to shake a stick at.Jun 25, 2011
By justThisGuy
This walking pole is versatile and sturdy. The handle is cork and ergonomic. It has a leash and adjusts firmly. It has suspension and an ice pad for the tip. I plan on using this on my Rainier expedition next month. I hope it does the job there as much as it has here in Texas.

Great hiking pole for the price. READ the directions!Aug 28, 2011
By Amazoncustomer
Great stick for the price. Peroid. Just make sure you READ the directions on how to "lock" the pole height. You do NOT turn the plastic piece that says lock above it,(which seems like it would make sense) you actually turn the pole itself. Do that and this should be fine for you! Like I said, it is basically an adjustable stick. I'm not sure what a $100 one could do that this one cannot. Maybe have sexy colors?
