Review: Love the poles, great for recreation/keeping in shape! Just a couple of suggestions.. - I ordered a set of the birch trekking poles, and I am in love with them! They are easy to adjust and most comfortable to use; especially with the ergonomic handles. I have found with my carpal tunnel, I prefer to use the thumb rest on the side of the grip rather than on top, though both work. The poles are very easy to adjust and very lightweight and fun to walk with for rehabbing your body back into shape for fitness. I have now officially found my new favorite form of exercise to keep me motivated, so these poles are aptly named. The poles come with regular tips for pavement, soft terrain spikes snow baskets, a soft carry case with pocket, and wrist straps. There are some very helpful instructions and instructional videos to assist the consumer in getting set up for the first time, if unfamiliar with trekking poles. The wrist straps, though comfortable, do not stay cinched and open up during walking. Also; the right wrist strap, has to be assembled upside-down for the word "York" to be on the outside, when installed, as it seems both straps were printed in the same direction, so the right one does not match the video instructions. The Seller graciously sent me a couple of extra pairs to try; another set of the straps that come with the poles and a set of straps that come with metal clips. I found the thinner straps would be useful and more lightweight and appropriate for summer, and that the metal clips seemed to remain locked better than the plastic, which actually do not stay snapped down for me on the original motivator straps. The original straps are my favorite, though, I do actually prefer my wrist straps padded and wider for winter when I am wearing gloves. All-in-all I really do love these poles, the designs are fresh and fun, as well as user friendly, lightweight and a pleasure to use. So far I have only used them in snow and the spiked tips really bite into the terrain for stability. I found the service for York to be helpful for its customers with great training video instructionals and personalized tips if you find a bit more is needed to get you started.
Review: Very helpful for fatigue and walking balance issues - My rheumatologist recommended these as I struggle with autoimmune disease and have terrible fatigue and joints pain. Sometimes I have balance issues, too. As they ALWAYS recommend exercise for chronic fatigue, I was complaining that I JUST CAN’T exercise, since I get exhausted just by taking a shower for example. So she recommended these and said to try even 5 min a day of walking and see if it helps. It took a while to get used to them, and I think I probably look ridiculous when I walk through my neighborhood, but it has helped! I started walking 5 min a day, now I can do 10-15min and I don’t feel d*ad afterwards. They kind of help propel you as you walk. I think it also gave me some motivation too. They look very sturdy, and provide good stability. Easy to adjust the height. At first my thumbs would start numbing after a while, but I did some research and they suggested to pull your hands through the wrist straps from bottom up, instead of from top to bottom and that fixed the problem! I never knew these existed, but I’m glad I got them. I am in my early 40’s and I believe it can help anyone with fatigue or balance issues. Happy walking!

## Features

- HIGH QUALITY WALKING POLES: 2 pack of adjustable walking / hiking / rehab poles with a patented contoured grip and dual support zones, designed to provide better balance and stability. Perfect for pole walking for seniors, our patented grips provide a 10 times reduction in stress at thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint by positioning thumb on top in a pinching position rather than grasping with thumb around the side.
- PATENTED GRIP -BETTER BALANCE, LESS STRESS: Two contoured thumb positions making gripping a breeze. Thumb grasps around the sides of the grip and the ability to rest your thumbs on the top in a "pinching" position improves proprioception and reduces stress on the CMC joint over a traditional grasping position, and is the best in class hand support for the biaxial saddle joint. Durable round rubber tips are also more stable than Nordic or thin tips.
- ADJUSTABLE & ERGONOMIC: Poles adjust from 32"-54" using a new and exclusive flip lock mechanism (better than twist locks or jarring button locks), assisting with active walkers, hikers and physical therapy. Adjusts to any height from children and adults up to 6'2 with a max weight support of 230 lbs. Perfect for seniors you can go poling on beaches, trails, woods, or urban streets
- ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT: Pairs are high quality aircraft grade 7075 aluminum with tungsten steel tip. Light and more stable than carbon fiber. Provides better stability when walking or hiking. Each pole only weighs 9.5 ounces (11 ounces with optional round rubber tip)! The patented contoured grips provide two contoured thumb support positions which stabilize the trapeziometacarpal joint. (thumb pinches via left arrow or grasps via right arrow) and reduce strain on CMC thumb joint.
- PREFERRED BY PHYSICAL THERAPISTS: These poles are specially designed to improve balance. Perfect for physical therapy and rehab. Used by parkinson’s patients, cancer rehab, stroke recovery, spinal injuries, or anywhere where walking is part of your plan. Also popular for shoulder and hip replacment rehab. Takes weight and stress off of knees and joints. Helps Improves posture and helps tighten core stomach muscles

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well Built, Grip Design very helpful
*by S***P on July 12, 2026*

The walking poles are very well built. Poles are thick walled and grips well made. I have sent four pair to people with mobility challenges. When using a cane, these people walk hunched over and tilting to the cane side. When using these mobility poles they walk more vertical and not leaning to one side. They comment about the grips being comfortable. The thumb groves adds support and the J-Hook support on the lower outside of the grips help people with low grip strength.
