Trek-Z Cork Grip Trekking Poles – Lightweight Folding Hiking Poles, Adjustable Height, Compact Travel Design, Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Walking Sticks for Men & Women

Five Stars. Excellent customer service experience with Trekology. I purchased the Trek-Z Cork Grip Trekking Poles to assist when trail running longer distances. I was trail running & slightly bent one of the poles (totally my fault). I contacted customer service & asked if I could purchase a section of one pole to fix the bent pole. Customer service sent me a new replacement set of poles. I bent the pole on a Saturday & had the new set on a Friday. Excellent experience. Despite the mishap, the poles are really durable. No slipping with the locks at the length adjustments. The poles are lightweight aluminum and easy to fold/unfold while on the run. The grip feels natural and since the grips are cork, they don’t get slippery from sweat. When running, I store the poles in my Salomon quiver for easy reach when I need them. The pole fit perfectly in the quiver. The quiver is attached to my running vest. I’ll continue using these poles and recommend them. They are a great value for the money.

The TREKOLOGY Trek-Z Cork Grip Trekking Poles are a solid choice for hikers seeking lightweight, adjustable, and durable poles. The aircraft-grade aluminum construction feels sturdy, while the cork grips provide comfort on long treks. Their folding, compact design makes them easy to pack for travel. Overall, they offer good performance for both casual walkers and serious hikers.

I bought these for a trip where air travel was involved. The tri-fold design and good ratings sold me. Good: Cork handles. This is a nice feature, usually found on more expensive poles. Tri-fold, with captive sections. Super convenient when folded down. Fit easily in my luggage. Price was very competitive for features and quality. Solid build. All of the components feel solid and I'm not worried the poles will break down on the trail. Bad: Weight. Actually, not a big deal. The materials and cable add some weight. Nothing that makes a huge difference while hiking. Tri-fold design. I'm not sure how to improve it, but the sliding section that takes up the slack in the captive cable can come loose while hiking. On an 8 mile section my partner accidently kicked the pole and the sliding section popped off of the static section, causing the pole to fold. This happened twice. This isn't a huge problem, but it was inconvenient. I know... the answer is don't kick your pole, but you've been tired on the trail, it happens. Overall: I'm still giving this set 4 stars. The price was good and it travels easily. It did the job and didn't fail. If someone wanted a more travel friendly set of trekking poles, I would happily point them in this direction.

I picked these up after using the basic collapsible poles from Trekology for a couple of years. Those held up well for the price, but my main issue was the storage size—they didn’t compact down quite as much as I wanted. That’s where these come in. The 3-piece folding design makes a big difference. I can break them down much smaller and easily fit them inside my day pack, which is a huge plus for hiking and travel. Build quality feels just as solid as the original poles I had. They’re lightweight but still feel durable, and the cork grips are comfortable during longer hikes. Setup is quick and straightforward, and once they’re locked in, they feel secure with no issues during use. Overall, these are a nice upgrade if you’re looking for something more compact without giving up durability. If packability is important to you, these are definitely worth considering.

Exactly as described. Nice design, easy to us, store, and carry. Great price point, light weight, and easy to collapse, but sturdy. The poles come in a nice storage bag with a variety of tips for your poles, so you can adjust to the different types of terrain. The collapsed poles fit nice in my hiking pack and also have sturdy hand/wrist straps if you want to carry them. If you get stuck on the functionality, watch the easy to follow videos for setting the proper height, and locking in and collapsing the poles. This will help to prevent injury and ensure proper use.

Very impressed with these light-weight and very strong Hiking Poles, as I recently hiked and CLIMBED DOWN AND THEN BACK UP a very difficult HIGH DIFFICULTY Trail to a waterfall in Puerto Rico. I absolutely could not have made it down, let alone back up without the assistance of these very sturdy poles; that then easily fold into a small bag. I weigh around 290 lbs! I now use them for walking around my hilly urbanization roads that are asphalt as they do help give you that extra PUSH and stability. Plus a great defense against any aggressive animal. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE POLES TO ALL. I WAS NOT COMPENSATED FOR THIS REVIEW!!!

Had heard that a few people experienced issues, mostly poles bending. Not sure of their specifics but for me, I just finished a hike up to Baxter State Park to a remote campsite (6 miles in and back) and these worked perfectly. At one point I was trying to assist another hiker with their snowshoe binding and I misstepped- almost fell over onto the ice. One pole stopped my 6' tall 250lbs self with gear from falling. It took a slight curve but I was able to train it out on the hike when we continued. Great product. The only issue I could see was that the snow basket attachment liked to unscrew so I checked it now and again.

I had never used trekking poles before, and bought these for a trip to Patagonia. They were perfect! Lightweight, sturdy, easy to use and adjust, and fit inside a daypack. They were really helpful for keeping balanced on windy, rocky trails and for using your arms to help going up steep slopes. I was surprised at how much help they are going for going downhill and saving your knees and ankles from some of the impact. I definitely recommend them.

These poles are great! I needed a pair to travel OS with and be able to pack down for the travel, but still be sturdy and able to handle rough terrain. These are great poles, they pack down and assemble easily and very straightforward. They're strong and handled technical, steep and rocky terrain, as well as gentle grassy areas. The cork grips and wrist handles are great, they're light and also stylish and the bag and added fittings are also great. The mud caps worked a treat, and the spikes held the ground and rocks well. I couldn't have been happier with this purchase and will be buying more for Christmas gifts.

got to say this is really good just like what everyone else says. too many out there but just get this. the ONE hiking stick to use.

Me gustaron mucho estos bastones de senderismo, son cómodos, ligeros, plegables, fáciles de guardar y transportar, su construcción sólida, bien terminados, diseño atractivo y traen varios accesorios para usar en función del terreno que 'vayas a atacar'. Hace casi medio año sufrí un esguince severo de tobillo, y los he usado no como equipo ortopédico sino como apoyo para caminar estable y seguro, y me han parecido fabulosos. Seguramente cuando me recupere totalmente los disfrutaré aún más en las travesías de fin de semana. Muy recomendables para los entusiastas del 'outdoors' !

These are great trekking poles featuring ease to fold, adjustability, lightweight & stable. There is one issue, while trekking in snow, the snow basket tip came off. I noticed the snow baskets are screwed on & must be checked regularly. Subsequent to the initial review above, I reached out to customer service regarding the snow basket issue. The response was immediate with excellent solution to replace the basket. In the meantime, I found a simple solution as to how to prevent this problem from recurring by sliding a tight fitting rubber O ring under the basket to keep it from working loose. Customer service appreciated my simple & inexpensive solution to these excellent trekking poles. Great company to do business with.

Primero: Las reseñas que dicen que este suelto, los cables no son acero, que son débiles: No es asi. El montaje no es obvio, pero luego si lógico: Hay que juntar las piezas y después subir con ganas la parte más arriba hasta que salga el botoncito metálico. Ahora se queda tieso como Dios manda. Ahora se puede ajustar la altura de la parte arriba con un mecanismo de clip, lo cual también es ajustable. No pesan nada, son cómodos y tienen un sistema de ajustar la cinta de mano ideal. Traen todo tipo de puntas, y el corcho tiene un tacto agradable. Estoy encantado, cosa que no es fácil, de verdad muy recomendable por mi parte.
