About LEKI

LEKI, the world’s leading manufacturer of ski, hiking and trekking poles, had its start in Kircheim, Germany as a hobby of its founder, Karl Lenhart, an airframe mechanic and avid skier. Lenhart believed aluminum would make a superior ski pole compared to the heavy steel models available in the late 1940’s. After successfully creating lightweight poles for his friends, in 1954, the hobby became a full time business. LEKI originated the use of nylon webbing for straps and created plastic molded grips and baskets in place of metal and leather. Additionally, Lenhart developed an aluminum tempering process that produces pole shaft with incomparable strength, durability, and reliability.

In 1984, Klaus Lenhart, Karl’s son, assumed leadership and shortly there after developed the first dual-component grip. He is also responsible for improving adjustable pole-locking technology and grip innovations such as the Trigger Click-In system and COR-TEC, a material made of real cork and latex. As the ski market continued to flourish, LEKI began manufacturing hiking poles primarily for European mountain guides. The concept of using two poles as means of relieving stress on knee joints and the lower back appealed to climbers who also saw benefits in performance and safety. LEKI poles eventually caught on with the general hiking and trekking population that recognized and appreciated the preventive health benefits as well as the climbing support and stabilizing effects. In 1990, LEKI USA was incorporated. The North American market has embraced the company’s line of alpine, Nordic, back country, mountaineering, Nordic walking, and trekking poles. Like their European counterparts who have been loyal to LEKI for nearly five decades, North American outdoor enthusiasts know and appreciate LEKI quality and value.

Features:
  • Expander locking system offers quick, easy-length adjustment and a secure hold

  • Carbide Flextips are concave, cylindrical tips that provide a secure hold when Nordic walking off-road on all terrain and surfaces; carbide is extremely durable while the entire tip is replaceable.

3good for some things  Mar 03, 2008
By Jim E. Heskett
sturdy. good for hiking, not so much for snowshoeing (the plastic sizing piece contracts in the cold and doesn't fit as it should). make sure you size them to your body and get the hand straps on correctly, it makes all the difference.

5Love these poles!  Nov 09, 2011
By Mrs Moose
I have now hiked with Leki hiking poles for over 10 years, and I LOVE THEM! I have now owned two pairs. I lost one pole in a wilderness creek, but the other 3 are still going strong. The fact they can be collapsed to fit into a suitcase, backseat, or elsewhere is a great plus. In fact, as an aside, the handle once stopped a fast slide I was doing down a hiking trail when I fell - it caught on a log enabling me to stop and then crawl back up to the trail. They're a GREAT help to my knees, and I believe they'll prolong my hiking years. These poles are highly recommended.
