Komperdell

These are the perfect waterproof gloves for me to do ranch work while it's raining. I can still feel through them, my hands don't get wet or cold, and the hay doesn't stick to them. LOVE them. I hope they last forever. They are a little stiff when you first get them but they relax after a few uses.

Does what it is designed to do. Protects the tip on pavement and hard surfaces.

I'm disabled. I use this as my cane.

I needed some baskets to replace the soft powder baskets on my adjustable Komperdell poles and these winter baskets fit perfectly and work great on the ski hill.

A great travel aid.

I've had the non-antishock version of this pole for close to ten years and it still works perfectly. I first bought this pole for my elderly mother who needed a cane but refused to use one because she thought it made her look old (she's 84). She's used it every day for several years. I then recently bought this for myself because I've had problems with my shoulder and thought this might be a little easier on it than the un-springy pole. It collapses down smaller than any other pole and I can keep it in my pack when hiking until I want to use it.

Used for back-country travel in winter with deep snow. Great traction for those steep uphills.

Love these poles! I've been using snowshoe poles for the last few years as I've started backpacking and hiking in the Adirondacks. Having passed more avid hikers on the trail with true trekking poles, I researched many before selecting these. Contrary to what some other reviews said, I found the adjustment quick, easy,and secure and the stability to be excellent. The tip really does bite. My first hike with them was up a small peak on mixed snow, ice, and bare rock, requiring microspikes on the boots, but the poles grab both ice and rock and hold true. So glad I made the switch!

I used this for mild warm gloves to use when I needed some dexterity and the snow gloves weren't cutting it. They are great, I can easily use my camera, light a fire, cook dinner outside while backpacking with these. Very comfy. They do make my hands sweat after they've been on for a while, but no biggie.
