Overmont Walking Poles - 2pcs Collapsible Ultralight Aluminum Walking Sticks for Women Men Seniors with EVA Cork Handle,Trekking Poles Foldable, For Hiking, Camping, Mountaining, Backpacking ASIN:

Very light walking poles. One of the stick sometimes doesn't fold so easily, and get stuck, but the overall quality is good. I was looking for a foldable easy to carry and light walking poles and I got what i wanted. I recommend them

BROKE AFTER FIRST USE !!! Tried contacting amazon and supplier but neither are helping. Sick of going round in circles with "assistant"Update****.... Although it was frustrating trying to report this item, once I messaged the seller the correspondence was good. Replacement item received within 5 days.The top two sections of one pole became stuck and wouldn't fold away properly. When they separated the cord inside snapped. I'm hoping this is a one off as the poles were excellent whilst being used in the snow on the side of a mountain in Wales.

The instructions are written in mis-translated Chinese, and thus are very unclear. Trial and error achieves the desired end result, but no need to waste so much time. An easy problem for the seller to fix for almost no cost

The cable that holds the pole together snapped during the third day (the third time I had used the poles) of a hike in the High Atlas causing the pole to suddenly fall apart. This could have been extremely dangerous had I not been on level ground.This is the second set of Overmont poles that has had issues with the cable. The plastic sheath over the cable on the first set (from a different supplier) came off on the second use, making it impossible to open the pole up, however I liked the weight and ease of assembly so decided to give them a second try. I now think there is a design fault with the cables and that these poles are dangerous.

Nice set, good quality. Adjustable length and handle strapsQuick and easy to assemble and disassemble. They fold up nicely to store. Colour range is good. Friends have also bought in different colours.

I have used walking poles for many years, but they were too long to carry on an plane. I bought these for traveling, as they would fit in my suitcase. I used them for a week trekking in Albania and the titanium pole tips which did an excellent job still look brand new.Light, very steady, dependable, strong, well constructed.You won't go wrong with these, especially given the price.

Disappointing functionalityInitially these poles seemed to work well. However on my first long walk along canal towpaths one of the poles keept collapsing. The joints are simply push in with only friction to hold them. One joint was loose, hence it's coming apart roughly every half mile. In the end I jammed the pole together with a shred of thin rubber glove. It worked so well it is now impossible to completely collapse the pole. With further use I expect the other joints to also work loose. Very disappointing.I won't buy poles with this type of non locking joint again despite the compact, rucksack friendly size.

Easy to use and lightweight
