5.0 out of 5 stars. Wonderfully lightweightVerified Buyer Reviewed by Sandy D from Saint Augustine Florida on Thursday, March 23, 2017I have not used these yet as I'm leaving for Spain next week. They are nice and light weight fold up into 3 sections so they will easily fit in my backpack and just poke out a little. Top Notch quality these are great walking poles

4.0 out of 5 stars. Not road tested yetVerified Buyer Reviewed by CR Walker from Cedar Rapids, IA on Tuesday, May 26, 2015These poles have not been used on the trail yet. They seem sturdy, assemble easily, comfortable grips, easily adjustable. They are long enough for taller people. They work fine for local walking but haven't ventured on a trail yet. They have five star potential.

2.0 out of 5 stars. ADJUSTABLE?Reviewed by tak from Los Osos, CA on Sunday, May 3, 2015I'm 5'9", and usually choose different length poles going up and downhill; usually about 10 cm difference. These poles start out at 120 cm, even longer than my downhill max length. As another reviewer said, "back they go."

3.0 out of 5 stars. just okReviewed by src000 from Gardnerville, nv on Friday, March 27, 2015I have an older pair of Komperdells with twist locks. The twist lock works ok but they are really light weight (200gms/poll) and go from 105cm to 145cm. These are not as light (270gms/poll) and the height starts at about 120cmm just a little taller than I like. Back they go.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Great polesReviewed by Jon from Montana on Wednesday, September 24, 2014They're light and strong. I love how quickly they break-down. The locking mechanism is secure and the flick lock upper section is a great adjustability tool.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Nice, easily adjustable, very llightweight trekking poles.Verified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from Florida on Thursday, July 31, 2014These are very good quality trekking poles, very lightweight, easily adjustable, but a foam gripping surface under the handles would be nice, as would a carrying bag for them when folded. A simple nylon drawstring bag couldn't cost a buck to include, and it would be very much appreciated - especially at the cost of these poles. My wife ordered Leki lightweight folding carbon fiber poles and got a bag like that which makes hers much easier to pack in our camper for trips, and much easier to carry when on the flats and she may not want to use them or wants to keep her hands free to use her camera, etc. Compared with her Leki poles, which have the bag, which have the below the handle gripping surface, which have a protective plastic 'sleeve' over the elastic shock cords to protect them when disassembled and folded, and which have an easier, more reliable and superior locking mechanism for the sections, I wish I'd gotten Lekis instead at this point....and at less cost and aboput the same weight.
