Aihoye Trekking and Walking Poles - 2 Pack Adjustable Collapsible Lightweight Sticks - Strong Aluminum7075, Quick Flip-Lock Mechanism and Comfortable Cork Grips

I merged all the features of the top hiking poles for 2020 listed them on a paper and set out to find all the features in one pole. Took quite a while but this is the winner that had everything and at an affordable price which was shocking. Surprised they aren't sold out yet. This is why I choose these walking sticks: 1. It has a cork handle which is helpful for not slipping when your hands sweat. 2. The strap is nice and heavy, well made. 3. The handle fits to your hand and forms nicely unlike many others with cork wraps on the handles. Therefore, the grip angle allows your wrists to stay neutral. 4. They are lightweight metal but out of sturdy aircraft grade 7075 aluminum. 5. They fold down which is essential and have a telescope design for exact height of the hiker. 6. The feature of anti-shock system is another primary reason for buying these. Love it has this feature. Overall, this has all the features PLUS it has so many feet for the bottom of the pole for different terrain and a well-made bag to fit the feet in. The cost was surprising as it had all the features that were on my checklist. Kudos to a well made, well thoughtout, economical hiking pole! Deserves two thumbs up!!!!!!

Comfortable to use, good quality, easy to assemble, great price, adjustable height makes sure it fits most people for use. Product is lightweight and easy to use.

Update 05/10/20:I have been unable to hike for months now due to a broken toe and a horrible case of plantar fasciitis. This past month I have started hiking again and began using the replacement poles I was sent. They do work a lot better. I have only had the poles contract two times with the regular feet on them. I will say that when the feet for rocks are on the poles every time I hit a rock it twists the poles and they contract. If the bottom segments of these poles had the latch like the top segment than this would not be an issue at all.Update 08/29/19:I have been in contact with the seller. They responded promptly and are replacing my poles. I am now waiting for the new pair. Once I receive them and use them I will update my rating.These poles are really helpful while hiking. My one complaint is that the third (lowest) segment collapsed on me three times during my first long hike. The way the third segment is attached is not stable and I have had the plastic piece on the end of one of them come off inside the second segment.

My dad loves these. He feels more secure on the long walks he takes. These are a blessing.

My mother loves her new walking sticks. Would buy again.

At age 64, I found the walking and hiking sticks to be of grade value. Not long after getting them I had a medical issue which has impacted my left eye. This has left my equilibrium in the state of flux. The hiking poles have helped me tremendously continue to walk longer distances and navigate challenging. Terrain.

Only used them for a few hikes but I am very happy with them. I’ve had no issues.

I recently purchased these hiking poles with high hopes of having a reliable companion on my outdoor adventures. However, my experience with these poles has been nothing short of a disaster.Within just one hour of use on a moderately challenging hike, one of the poles snapped in half without warning. I couldn't believe my eyes when it happened. I wasn't even putting excessive pressure on it; I was merely using it as intended to help with balance and support on uneven terrain. It's a hiking pole, for crying out loud! It should be able to handle a bit of stress.The build quality of these poles is abysmal. They felt flimsy from the moment I picked them up, and it turns out my initial suspicions were well-founded. The material used in their construction is clearly subpar, and the design is lacking in durability.It's not just about the money; it's about the disappointment and inconvenience of having gear fail on you in the middle of an excursion.I wouldn't recommend these hiking poles to anyone. They are a complete waste of money and a safety hazard, as they can't be trusted to provide the support you need while hiking. Do yourself a favor and invest in a more reputable and reliable brand. These poles are a joke, and they left me stranded on the trail with no support when I needed it the most. Absolutely unacceptable!
