My experiences. The above wording is from the Leki corporate web site and their claims are well supported by thousands of outdoor sports men and women. My first Leki poles were purchased over 20 years ago and still in good working order. Spare parts are available virtually anywhere, particularly the rubber tips which I seem to wear out after around 900 km of which only half would have been with the tips on when walking on  hard surfaces.  The rubber stops the pole slipping under pressure or on wet surfaces.

On gravel and soft surfaces I take the rubber tips off and use the metal points to bite into the surface.

Please note Leki have styles for both men and women as well as different hand grips. My wife really likes the CorkLite grip.  Follow the link in red: Leki
