Have you ever been hiking with hiking poles that collapsed when you needed them most? Well, that won't happen with these Foxelli Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles! WOWSA - THESE ARE GREAT HIKING POLES! And, the price point is GREAT! I am SO HAPPY I GOT THESE POLES!
These poles weigh half what my other poles weighed, and are twice as solid. These poles have a flip lock tab to lock the length in place. I love this feature because I know my weight on a steep incline won't collapse the poles.
I think one of my favorite features is the grip. I have a cork grip, which is for normal walking. But, right below that grip is a neoprene grip. If you have ever walked across a slope, having your uphill pole slightly shorter is easier. You don't need to do that with these poles because you can drop your hand down to the lower grip and you are set to go! What a great feature. It is not necessary to adjust your poles on slopes.
And lastly, I am a cross-country skier, so straps mean a lot to me because I don't actually grip the poles, I use my whole arm to propel myself forward by putting pressure on the strap (for those cross-country skiers out there, you know what I mean). This strap allows me to do that hiking. There is a nice, cushion-y strap that doesn't rub my hands. Again, a very nice feature.
Lastly, these poles come with a carrying bag, and tips for snow, mud, and pavement, as well as packing tips. I plan on making these my cross-country ski poles this winter. So, I really will get the value and use out of my trekking poles.
