Excellent Trekking Poles. We especially like the cork handles.

Every part of the equipment is high quality and beautifully organized. The bag with just the right size pockets. Waist band carrying pouch a nice gift. Very happy with the product. Ive owned a variety of brands and this one is top of the line for an unbelievably great price! I rely on my poles in the rough terrain of the mountains of Costa Rica.

I have been struggling with mobility issues for years, using a cane and walker interchangeably. Using the cane has adversely affected my body mechanics. I am hopeful that using these trekking poles with the included pavement tips - in spite of the anticipated quizzical looks in public settings - will help me regain a more symmetrical gait, and also promote increased upper arm strength that I have lost since having surgery on my spine, and while battling ongoing chronic pain. It will be a bit like having four legs which means enhanced stability. I am thankful to have these tools which, I believe, may lead to an improved quality of life for both me and my family.

I am a long-time user and abuser of trekking poles, and I probably know and appreciate their benefits as well as anybody. When I first began using them there were only twist locks - speed locks didnt exist. I have never been a fan of twist locks. They are a pain when new and a much bigger pain when they start to wear and need adjustment. I bought these Foxelli poles with double speed locks because I have started doing a BikenHike routine in the riding area where I mountain bike. My riding partner and I have begun adding to our regular up-the-doubletrack, down-the-singletrack ride a steep little hike of 500-600 up the double black diamond side trails that descend into our canyon riding area. Today was my first outing with the Foxelli poles and they performed excellently in every respect. They instantly collapse to a length that I can secure to my back pack and wont interfere with riding. The speed locks allow for fast, accurate extension. The trails we hike are stupidly steep, so I set them at 105-110mm for the uphill and 130-135mm for the down hill. Zip, zip, done. Worked as good or better than the higher priced spread on this initial outing. The Foxelli offer is gratifyingly complete. In addition to the cork-handled, double speed lock poles, you get trail baskets, snow baskets, crutch tips, and pavement booties, a little waist/fanny pack, and a nylon case with a shoulder strap for the poles. The design and the quality of materials and finishes appears to me to be as good as the leading brands - at about one-fourth the price. Extremely happy with the quality and performance of the product, and the value is truly outstanding.

Just as described. Easy to adjust & lightweight. Wonderful value. Great asset when trying to begin to walk on uneven surfaces like trails. I am disabled and these are a must have. I feel much safer with these to help me. Wonderful company& Great value. Thanks

Of course, this is just a hair heavier than carbon fiber, but one of the ones that I found after much research to be the most compatible. I wanted something that would be light weight, and foldable. Having a cork handle was also important to me to avoid the BPA in plastic (yes...Im overboard, but you dont have to me ;-) You should see the way I eat. LOL). Anyway, the poles are reliable and well made. My only gripes are these: 1. tightening the screens to keep the poles from collapsing required a stronger hand than I was able - so until someone was able to help me, they kept closing on me. Once tightened properly, they stayed in place. 2. The shock to my forearms and elbows was noticeable to me - possibly because Id never hiked with poles. I dont plan to use them on every hike, only the harder ones, so Im comfortable with the compromise. Overall not having hiked with poles in the past, I can say Im in love with how much of a difference it makes on the decent. There was only one other brand I considered, ultimately, but unfortunately it arrived too late.

These trekking poles worked well during my hunt in Alaska, so why 3 stars? I lost the rubber tips the very first stab into the ground. There’s no way of securing them to the poles except through a friction fit. I tried to get them to stick but ended up losing both in the muskeg. I then tried to friction fit the other supplied tips and both of those cracked. The poles themselves are well built and didn’t bend.

I gave my husband a pair of these poles for his birthday and he loves them! They are very easy to adjust and secure, comfortable to grip, and look terrific. Couldnt ask for more.

These poles were recommended by my doctor to help improve my posture when walking and reduce low back pain. I immediacy felt a difference! The poles are light and easy to use and have a variety of tips so that you can walk on any terrain. Great quality!

I wish the rubber tip is screwed on, as i lost it on my first hike. Must have snagged it to the rocks and just came off. I wish foxelli provide extra rubber tips in the pack. But all in all its a great product. It helps alot going uphill.
