LEKI Corklite Trekking Poles

Product Highlights

New for 2008! Weighing in at only 16 ounces per pair and offering textured, user-friendly grips, LEKI Corklite poles are ideal for thru-hikers and lightweight backpacking devotees.

Incorporating a positive angle into the textured, compact right and left hand grips, Corklite poles preserve a more neutral ergonomic position for your wrist and hand, allowing for comfort and precise tip placement. Integrated straps further reduce stress on your wrists and provide additional security and comfort.

LEKI's Super Lock System (SLS) uses wide thread patterns and steep-angled lock mechanisms to provide quicker and easier adjustments and is up to 60 times more secure than other locking systems. The SLS locking system is far less prone to loosening while in use, giving you peace of mind even in challenging situations.

Corklite poles employ carbide flex tips that deflect up to 30 degrees without damaging the lower pole sections. This reduces the risk of pole breakage if the pole should get caught between rocks or tree roots on the trail. Standard trekking baskets are included and are interchangeable with a simple screw on/off design that stays secure. Optional snowflake and deep powder baskets (sold separately) allow the poles to be converted for winter use.

LEKI Corklite poles are sold in pairs.
