Foxelli Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles – Lightweight Collapsible Hiking Poles with Cork Grips, Quick Flip Locks & All-Terrain Accessories – Adjustable Height Hiking Sticks for Men & Women

Excellent hiking poles. Have been using them for about a year. Easy to adjust, lightweight, very good for muddy spots, water/stream crossing, uphills and downhills. The cork is nice and comfortable to hold for extended periods of time. Very happy with it.

I have used and have high quality poles for many years over mountain trails. There is great benefit to use poles not only for stability but also manage weight on your feet/legs over time. We purchased the Foxeilli poles because they break down small enough for packing in a suitcase and we had also thought they were shock absorbing poles as advertised. They are NOT shock absorbing, maybe the manufacturer considers the cork handles as shock-absorbent? I do not, other poles have systems that actually give in slightly like a car shock absorber. The product's literature that came with the product makes no mention of a shock absorbing characteristic. In any event, for the trek we plan to take in the UT natiional parks theses poles are suitable, are well made and should survive well. They are light, sturdy, easily adjustable and well constructed. These should work well for our light duty trekking. I'm happy with the purchase.

These are great sticks! I have hiked hundreds of miles on them and they have held up well. Nice light weight, sturdy and easy to adjust. It's worth spending more for the carbon fiber. Great for ascents and muddy trails.

I really enjoy my new poles. The grips and straps are really much more comfortable than my old pair that were heavier and a bit uncomfortable on my bare hands. I will leave these in the back of my car for hiking needs. The only negative is that they are not great for airplane travel. They need to break down small enough to fit into a 22-inch suitcase, and they are just too long. That is my mistake and I needed to read the dimensions more carefully.

These are an OK set of poles I like some other commenters thought they were going to be the actual Shock-Absorbent type of pole. I have a single pole from Cabela's that is an actual spring loaded Antishock pole that you can turn on or off as desired. These are not those, These are ( as I now see ) Advertised as the Material itself the Carbon Fiber has Flexibility in it, It being the Pole itself, Allegedly the Pole has give in it to help absorb impact, If it does it is more than likely just the pole Bending a bit, No scientific proof on my part just my observation after using them on Trail. They are a good sturdy strong light weight pole easy to adjust, Though if you move the Height of the adjustment you will need to loosen or tighten the screw on the clamping feature each time as well as doing so after you have collapsed the poles for strapping to your Backpack when not in use which can be annoying, That is just the difference between the twist and the clasp type of pole. Collapsed down depending on which Boot you may have on the bottom they should be about 24" to 25" long. Mine weighed 8.20 oz each when new I put some Elec. and Duct tape on mine as a way to carry those on Hikes so mine do weigh a little more. The advertised weight is 7oz so unless my cork grips have sucked up 1.2oz of sweat not the case. I did have one instance where a pole came apart it was in a wet / muddy spot and there was no indication ahead of time that any such defect was about to happen both poles were doing fine, When I put the pole back togeather it has never happened since and I did no gluing or anything to it. The Cork hand grips as advertised are Great for absorbing Moisture from your hands if you tend to sweat and do not wear a glove or fingerless glove I usually wear a fingerless but at times have not and the Grips are fine, Also if you extend the poles to a very long posture for down hill you can use the EVA foam sleeve under the Cork Grip and not have to adjust the pole height. Some 1 star commenters have talked about Early Severe Breakage I have no idea what some of these people may be doing to there poles but mine are Very Strong being used properly I have a hard time believing that some of these breaks are not from miss use, I have Hiked Hundreds of miles with these poles and other than the coming apart instance the one time these have been very good poles, I only gave 4 stars because I thought they were going to be Spring Loaded Antishoch not just the Material. The Flashlight is very bright 9 leds takes 3 aaa batteries and weighs about 1.80oz if you were inclined to use this for Hiking there are no adjustments just on and off. All in all a good set of sticks I just miss read how they were advertising the Shock Absorber aspect of the Poles.

I just received these and haven't gone for a hike with them yet. However, after checking them over and comparing them to other poles I've owned or checked out: I'm Quite Impressed! Just before ordering these, I had purchased 3 different sets of poles at Cabelas: 2 Kelty styles and 1 Yukon so my wife, who wasn't with me at the time, could see what she liked. These were both clamp lock and twist to tighten styles. She didn't like the twist style because she was concerned that she couldn't grip tightly enough, especially if hands were sweaty, to tighten them sufficiently. Only one style had cork handles, which we both really liked because it seemed clear that the grip would be much better than the other non-cork handles--especially with sweaty hands. Here are the features we especially like about these Foxelli poles: 1) the cork handles are great and we liked the fact that they had a lower "knob" to help keep hands from slipping down. The other poles we checked out with cork handles didn't have this--only the "knob" at the top. 2) the dense foam-like grip area beneath the cork handles, also with a "knob" at the bottom which could be really useful if a lower hand position might ever be needed in some circumstances while hiking. This was one of the things we had noticed when reviewing poles online that caught our attention. It's as great as it seemed when we were evaluating different poles. Other poles had nothing else to grip beneath their handle, other than the pole itself--which would not provide sufficient gripping area. 3) The thumb-screw tightener on the clamp-locking mechanism is an exceptional feature. I tried these while setting all the clamps to optimal tension and they worked great. The poles I've had before did not have this, so it's good I typically carry a Swiss army knife with me because I've had occasions, while hiking, that the clamp was not tight enough and pole was slipping--a screw driver was required to tighten the clamping mechanism. 4) The poles are very light weight. No trekking poles we've owned, of the ones we checked out at Cabela's are heavy, but these were noticeably lighter. I trust the carbon fiber construction will result in their being as strong as aluminum poles we've owned or checked out, and less prone to bending or breaking--time and trekking will tell. 5) These Foxelli's had more tip choices than any other we found, with the addition of the rocker-style rubber tip that seems could be very useful especially on pavement or more solid ground. Some other poles did not include the broad snow tip, which could be useful here in WI, where we typically get lots of snow in winter. 6) The storage / carry bag is a really nice feature, especially with 4 different styles of tips, to be able to keep everything together when not in use. We were surprised it had an external velcro-closed pouch that holds all of the tips. We had expected the tips would just get stored in the bottom if the bag--which would not have been nearly as convenient as the external pouch. I'm not sure if we'd ever need the over-the-shoulder carry strap while hiking and would likely pick the tip needed for the day's conditions. However it would be a nice feature if we ever wanted to bring the bag along. 7) The "bonus" mini-flashlight was nice to have included and also fits in the pouch. 8) We like the fact that Foxelli is a small family-owned business. The overall quality and workmanship on these poles seems to be excellent. It's important to support businesses lie this. 9) At $64.97, we felt these poles were a very good value. It was a bit surprising that the advertised discount for 2 or more sets of poles was not reflected in the checkout price, but this did not detract from our interest in these. Now, on to the hike and "field-testing". Hopefully I'll remember to post a follow-up review after we've hiked with them awhile but, so far, I see nothing that could lead to disappointment. Keep up the great work Foxelli!

When I was young, I’ve never used poles for hiking. But as getting older, I started using my 1st trekking poles two years ago. They were collapsible by folding and fit into my backpacks. I used them for a full day hiking of 8,753 ft Guadalupe peak in November 2023. I mainly used when descending. One of poles was sometimes a little unstable but they were OK. In September 2024, I climbed Mt Fuji, 12,388 ft, spending two days. When I checked the poles at home, they were fine. But when I arrived at the trailhead, I found a cable inside of a pole was detached and I was not able to fix it. At the summit, I found unused 2nd pole had same problem that was inner cable was detached, too. Fortunately, my friend let me use his. I’m 154 lb and 5’11” but the poles last only one day hiking in Texas and I was not able to use them when I really needed them. After I retuned home, I checked the reviews of folding poles of other brands. It seems folding poles have same inner cable disconnecting problems as mine. A month ago, I bought a pair of Foxelli collapsible trekking poles. This time, I chose telescopic collapsible poles. As soon as assembling to one pole after receiving them, I immediately felt much better stability compared to the folding ones. Two weeks ago, I used this for moderate 4 miles hike with 910-ft elevation gain at Shenandoah and they were much more stable than the folding poles I had. Locking mechanisms are same. The difference between old one and this is aluminum or carbon fiber. The light weight of carbon fiber is advantage. But I think the real advantage is telescopic not folding for collapsing. Compared to folding, telescopic poles have less part to break. When the telescopic poles are collapsed, they are longer than folding ones but they still fit into my suitcase for traveling. I don’t know about folding poles of Foxelli brand but I definitely recommend this telescopic poles. The stability I felt was awesome. I really love this lightweight telescopic collapsible trekking poles very much.

We're only used these a couple of times, but so far, they seem terrific. The adjustment mechanisms work well, the instructions are very clear, they are very light and seem to proved excellent stability. Very happy so far.

These are great poles, but lost the rubber foot on one of them the first time I used it which was a pain so I had to buy some more. Otherwise great poles so far

Très léger et agréable malgré les fixations qui ont tendance à accrocher le pantalon s'il est ample A voir dans le temps sa solidité

Ho fatto sei trekking in patagonia (compreso il Fitz Roy) tra natale e la befana con un paio di bastoni comprati da Lidl per 20 euro. Sono tornati perfettamente integri. Ho allora deciso di comprare questi bastoni che dovrebbero essere professionali, leggeri, indistruttibili. Si sono rotti al primo utilizzo durante una passeggiata in un bosco.

Tested in 7 days trek of Pyrenees mountains...they are very light to carry and quite strong during going uphill or downhill.

This review is for the Foxelli Carbon Fiber Walking/Trekking Poles. These are fantastic quality at a very reasonably price. Being carbon fibre they are very light weight and are easily adjustable with markings on the side and flip locks to lock the sections. The grip is made of cork with a foam rubber lower grip, the straps are very comfortable and are clevery adjusted without the use of a buckle. They came with snow baskets, mud baskets, road feet, normal feet/tip covers, carry bag and a belly/bum bag. I have never had trekking poles before so took them out to some flat ground nearby and I got on with them very quickly. They will help my walking on Dartmoor and will increase my stability going up and down rough ground and crossing streams etc. They are extremely good value and I can't wait to get on the moors with them.
