100% Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles

These 100% carbon fiber trekking poles weigh under 7 oz per pole — the full weight reduction of carbon over aluminum for ultralight backpackers and thru-hikers who've already optimized their base weight and need poles that match the effort invested in every other gram-per-gram gear decision.

100% Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles: Ultra-Light Collapsible Pair for Backpacking

Carbon fiber absorbs trail vibration more effectively than aluminum, reducing the cumulative hand and elbow fatigue that builds over thousands of steps on a long thru-hiking day or loaded approach. The cork upper grip handles moisture from sweaty palms and light rain without the slippery surface that synthetic foam produces when wet, while the lower EVA foam grip extends the usable grip zone for angled traverses and steep uphill sections where hand position shifts. Quick-flip lever locks adjust the three-section pole from 24 to 53 inches in seconds without tools, covering the full height range for both users and terrain adjustments.
