Aihoye Collapsible Trekking Poles - 2 Pack, Lightweight, Anti-Shock Walking Sticks - Adjustable for Men and Women

They arrived quickly were packaged well. I went out on a limb and got the purple. So glad I did it's a great color. They seem sturdy although I haven't taken them on a long hike yet. Feel about as lightweight as they could be. Easily adjustable although if I used the height adjustment guide on the minimal instruction sheet I'd be walking bent over. Still I found my own comfort zone. Hand grips feel well designed. Very pleased with purchase. UPDATE: Used them hiking at Zion and Bryce Canyon Utah. SO helpful walking thru uneven ground, up&down slopes. Lightweight, no effort in use just swing naturally and very good at helping maintain balance in tricky situations even on some light icy patches. They are invaluable!

I am SO VERY IMPRESSED with these Aihoye Hiking/Trekking Poles! They are of such High-Quality material and workmanship! I am so thrilled to have found them and I think that they are an AMAZING VALUE for the price! The grip is perfect for me with the straps and I have been using them on the Track at my local High School to try to increase my Strength and Endurance and they are perfect for what I wanted and needed. I plan on progressing to more adventurous hiking excursions soon. As a Senior Citizen, I know that it is simply imperative to get more exercise as we age, so that we don't lose Muscle Mass. So, these BEAUTIFUL Trekking Poles are my newest addition to my Exercise equipment and I understand that these types of Poles are widely used in Europe! So, we here in other countries, like America, for me, need to catch up with this Trend. I highly recommend these wonderful Poles!

I’ve been using these poles for quite a while now, mainly on my daily walks with my dog. I have minor balance issues and have had knee replacements, so I do use a cane at times. But walking my dogs is a little difrerent. I am waking on sidewalks, streets grass, dirt, gravel, etc. I need to keep my balance, watch where I’m stepping, and watch my dog. I’ve found the walking pole keeps me more upright than a cane, and the strap hslps support my wrist. I like the anti-shock feature, but really would like a way to lock it in place! As I walk, the pole turns just enough at times to twist the anti-shock feature into the off position. I am constantly having to re-twist the pole to the on position. I’ve had a couple of times where the pole slipped and shortened while using it. I just ensure I tighten the section that adjusts the height periodically. I do find this pole easier to adjust that the ones with a lever-lock system. I’ve been using one pole consistently while walking my dog every day and the wrist strap just gave out and broke. I suppose I should have been alternating poles every day, but I keep the second pole at my back door for use in the yard. I’m going to see of I can make or buy a replacement strap.Overall, I would recommend this set of walking poleswoth one caveat - they do not collapse enough to fit inside a medium-size hard-side suitcase. I was traveling last year and wanted to take these. They would have to be checked, so I tried them in my bag. Since they did not fit, I bought another set that collapsed smaller. After our trip I gave that set to my sister because she and her husband are avid hikers. I continue to use these every day!

The poles are very nice to use while walking in snow. Be sure and check the tightness of each as they collapsed on me once. My fault since I didn’t check. I’m looking forward to using them while hiking this spring.

Great walking sticks. Was suggested by my Physical therapist. Great to be able to adjust the height. Functional. Served me well.

Have been using them for a while now, and they are great, just as advertised. I love the feature of the spring, which does reduce shock when going downhill. I weigh 230 lbs, and they have supported a lot of my weight on some hikes that were pretty steep. I used them to push myself up or to soften the impact on my knees going down, and so far, so good.

Durable, easy to adjust. One problem: rubber tip wears then, exposing metal tip which slips on hard surfaces.

Due to a back problem, I need a little extra stability/support when walking, especially on uneven ground. I'm using just one of these walking sticks and it's working great by adding just that bit of needed stability.Gives me more confidence in walking. Very lightweight and easy to collapse as well as to pull back out for straightening. Very packable. Just make sure when using it that it's screwed tightly enough to add support. Nothing strenuous needed, easy to do even with my arthritis.
