Aihoye 1-20170001 Trekking Poles, Aluminum, Adjustable, Anti-Shock

For a neighborhood walk, a rocky trail, or a backpacking trip, the Aihoye 1-20170001 trekking poles provide an adjustable pair that packs down for carrying between outings. Their aluminum shafts extend from 25 to 52 inches, while the internal anti-shock spring helps absorb vibration as you walk.

Each pole weighs about 10.3 ounces with its tip. The set also includes interchangeable tips and baskets for different trail surfaces.

Technical overview

• Type: Pair of collapsible trekking poles
• Material: Aviation-grade aluminum
• Length: Adjustable from 25 to 52 inches
• Weight: About 10.3 ounces per pole with tip
• Locking system: Quick lock
• Shock absorption: Internal spring, can be activated or deactivated
• Included: Two poles, four rubber tips, two boot tips, two snow baskets, two mud baskets, and a carrying bag

The adjustable length helps tailor each pole to the user and walking conditions, while the quick-lock system makes it practical to set the poles for use. The ergonomic plastic handles have secondary foam grips for another hand position, and adjustable wrist straps help create a comfortable hold. For people choosing between a single walking stick and a paired set, two poles offer a pole for each hand during walks and hikes.

Practical tips

Set each pole to a comfortable length within its 25-to-52-inch range, then secure the quick lock before setting out. Choose the included tip or basket to suit the surface: rubber tips for regular ground, boot tips, or baskets for mud and snow. The anti-shock spring can be switched on or off to match your preference for the feel of the poles.

Tips for day-to-day use

For a walk on pavement, fit the rubber tips, when heading onto a trail, select the supplied accessories that suit the terrain. The poles collapse for storage in the included carrying bag, making it easier to pack them when they are not in use. On a hike with changing ground, the range of included tips and baskets gives you options without relying on a single surface setup. What matters more on your route: a lightweight pair to carry or accessories suited to varied terrain? This set addresses both needs with aluminum poles and multiple tip and basket styles.

Buyers often praise the poles’ light feel, adjustability, and usefulness on rocky hikes and at parks. Feedback on sturdiness and the locking mechanism is mixed: some report breakage or locks that do not hold securely. Set the locks firmly before use and check them as part of your routine, especially when adjusting the poles for a new route.

Questions before you buy

How long can the poles be adjusted? Each pole extends from 25 to 52 inches, so you can set its length within that range for walking or hiking.

What comes in the set? It includes two trekking poles, four rubber tips, two boot tips, two snow baskets, two mud baskets, and a carrying bag.

When it makes sense

It makes sense if you want a pair of collapsible poles for walks, hikes, or backpacking, with adjustable length, an anti-shock spring, and accessories for different surfaces. The aluminum construction keeps each pole to about 10.3 ounces, and the included bag makes the pair easy to carry between outings. For trails where conditions vary, the selection of tips and baskets adds practical flexibility to an adjustable walking set.
