Essential for any walking stick... proud to be an American

Awesome addition to any walking stick, easy to apply, and bend into the right shape. I recommend putting a heavy coat of waterproof silicone between the flag and the walking stick, to prevent any moisture from getting in there and  rotting the wood.

Represent and be proud to be an American. I placed them on my rear window across from my Glock sticker. It shows pride and I think people on the road agree, I don't get as many tail gaters since I installed them.

Most everyone can use a walking stick on a pleasure trip, while a "real" tripos is often left at home or in the car.

The Trek Pod is a lightweight walking stick that doubles as a monopod or a tripod when needed. Whether you're carrying an iPhone  with a Gilf tripod mount or a conventional flm or digital camera, this 3 way solution does the job. Height quickly adjustable for both walking and photography. The legs become part of the body when walking or for use as a monopod. Useful accessories, too. We've had ours four or five years. Still going strong. Comes in different models. Check to specs to be sure you get the one best for you.

This purchase from Amazon was for our favorite son-in-law

I currently have other hiking/walking sticks but wanted to try a cork handle version.  I must say that I love the feel and grip of the cork handle.
With this material, it absorbs and gives a much better feel and cushion impact.  There are cut-outs on the grip to keep the hand cool and dry.

The body is aluminum and very solid.  I do like that the adjustments can easily be made by twisting clockwise and to lock, twist it counter clockwise, making it easy for transportation or storage.

This pair is a great addition to anyone looking for an affordable and durable walking/hiking stick. Highly recommended.

Well built, doubles as a walking stick too. I find this as my go-to 'pod' when I don't feel like carrying a tri-pod. I'm very satisfied at the quality and construction for such a low price.

I've used the walking stick for a few months and it's great. Disassembled it fits into my backpack for easy transport. Parts fit together well and gives me a strong useful stick. I used it extensively on a weekend trip to Bulls Island in Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge. I'm genuinely happy with the stick.

My wife and I will be traveling through out Europe and we'll be doing a lot of walking during our time there.
I have Parkinson and my balance isn't what it use to be and walking on uneven streets and sidewalks could be a challenge.
I looked at a number of Trekking Poles and chose the Sterling Endurance poles based on prior customer feedback and cost.
I'm very pleased with the quality of the poles and how simple they are to open and close.
In the open position the poles are very sturdy.  Great quality and a fair price.

I bought one for hubby for fathers day years ago and decided to get one for me. After a few years I decided I wanted a 2nd, so bought another set. Mum has been going out in the desert hiking with the old folks. I bought her some to use for safety. She recently fell (guess she didn't have them with her) and used 1 as a cane while recovering...
It takes practice to learn how to lengthen/shorten them. go by instinct and not the writing. Once you get it right you either wear a mark so you can see how long to make it, or you can make a mark to make transition faster. I lost a tip last summer in tahoe after many years of rock climbing. Found replacement multiple tips which went on perfectly. These are always in use. I only wish they fit in my suitcase. Many times I have wished I had them on my travels.

Got my order today and was not disappointed, well made and looking forward to using these trekking poles. I don't hike so I cant speak on that but use mine to walk in the woods and pasture for exercise,feel safe walking with these, gives me freedom.

Awesome walking stick ! And cane. I got this for my husband who needs a cane and I don't know why someone said it would not be good for a cane because it's great for my husband. My husband is still young and unfortunately needs the assistance of a cane but hates the big bulky huge handled "old" persons cane. He loves this and the fact that it has a flashlight that van be swiveled up and down blows his other cane out of the water. I could see it being hard for maybe an elderly person but they would need a special balancing cane anyways. I'm so happy I found this for him. It's put together well and it will be used ALOT, I'll update in future as to how it holds up.

Lightweight, durable, well made. Only issue I had was a nylon "burr" on the hand strap left over probably from when they cut and heat the nylon, leaving a hard piece that chaffs the hand. I'll have to see if I can either cut the burr down, or heat and smash it, but not worth deducting any stars. I had bought a wooden walking stick made from a root of a tree, which I really like the look of, but it was too heavy. This aluminum stick is easy to carry, and collapse able.

The poles arrived within a couple of days of placing the order.

I often hike off the beaten path and one of my ankles tends to turn inward and trip me on a regular basis. I feel so much safer with this pole (I only feel the need to use one).

Muddy, wet, leafy surfaces are not an issue.  I especially like using it on hikes where there are steps, it's just like having a portable banister. (I'm training to hike the 3250 steps of Mt. Sinai in May).

The poles are great, easy to adjust the height. Lightweight, yet durable enough to support my weight.  Another reviewer mentioned a corky odor.  I don't think I would have noticed any odor if not for the review, and it is only if I hold the handle up to my nose and sniff that I smell cork.

I cannot comment on the thermometer or the compass, as my eyesight is too poor...but neither is of any importance to me.

The only negative is there were no instructions on how to adjust them.  My nephew, while playing with them, managed to take one apart.  I had to figure out how to reattach on my own...I worried I might break a spring, but was able to put it back together with any damage.

I would highly recommend this product.  I can't imagine what a hundred dollar set could do that these don't.

I used it while touring Petra and a old Bedouin came up to me an asked to trade a necklace he made for it.  I didn't want to give it up, but who can refuse a bartering Bedouin?

Sturdy, stout, well made. Can support as a walking stick.

Its hard to find a cane/walking stick that doesnt collapse under your weight but this one really delivers.  No i am not a shill.  I really like this product.  As a photographer i'm always looking for a handy monopod.  This is adjustable easily and locks in place but also has a spring to absorb shock.  After getting mine I immediately ordered one for a friend for Christmas as it is a good product at a good price.  Really well done!

The are great walking/hiking stickes.  They fold down so that you can easily pack them in a carryon suitcase.  They are well made and light.  Locks for variable lengths are strong and dependable.  They are not as stiff or heavy as the 'nonfolding' type, but they were more than sturdy enough for my wife and I.

I just came back from a trip to Israel where I used this walking stick all the time. It collapses to a very manageable size that fit into my carry on bag with no problem. The cloth bag that comes along with the stick is very handy for carrying it.  Highly recommended, especially for short people.
