Leki Trekking Poles
Two sticks are better than one on the trail.
Using a pair of hiking poles or trekking poles gives you balance and takes more stress off the lower body joints. The grips and straps are designed so you can push down on them to assist yourself on the trail, but also for quick release if the pole gets stuck between rocks or roots.
Leki Trekking Poles include great features that make them one of the most sought after brands, including:
- Adjustable Lenghs
- Ergonomic Grips
- Highest Quality Heat-Treated Aluminum
- Flexible tips that can bend without damaging the pole shaft

All Leki Trekking poles are covered by a Manufacturer's Lifetime Warranty Against Shaft Breakage.
Now they rarely break, but if they should, here's a true story of what one Leki user experienced:
"As many of you know, Leki has a Lifetime Shaft Breakage Warranty on their trekking poles. On Saturday, April 5 while I was hiking with Trail Trotter I managed to take a pretty good fall and break the upper shaft section of one of my Leki poles in the process. (I lost a shoulder too - but that is covered elsewhere, and it will grow back.)
On April 7 I sent an email to Leki telling them of the problem and asked if they thought this would fall under the terms of their Lifetime Shaft Breakage Warranty. Within minutes I had an automated response. A few minutes more and a live person was on the phone with me discussing the matter and apologizing for being unable to send a replacement upper shaft section for my poles since they were no longer in stock. The Leki representative (Melanie) asked if it would be acceptable if they sent a replacement set of poles. Well, I’ve got a new best friend! Of course it was acceptable.
This afternoon the UPS truck dropped off a new set of Leki Thermolite XL AS poles.
In my view Leki makes a quality product with a great warranty. Then, when something happens they stand behind their warranty 100%. This kind of customer support is what causes customers for life. They can count on my business and recommendation. Leki, what a company! "
