The Lightest 3 part Trekking Pole in The World?

The Compact (currently £50 per pair or £25 each) is Fizan's (and our) best selling pole, primarily because at just 158g Fizan recokon that it is the lightest 3-part pole available worldwide.
It folds down to a neat 58cm, short enought to fit on the back of most daypacks without poking you in the back of the head when you look up. Fully extended it reaches 132cm. The materials used are all top grade with the pole body sections being lightweight 7001 aluminium alloy. There is a comfortable EVA hand grip with a neoprene strap. The tip is made from carbide and the poles come with a 50mm trekking basket as standard.

It is also supplied with a rubber ferrule (with most other makes this would be an optional extra) handy for when you're using the poled on metalled tracks. We've also read recently that conservation organisations involved in path maintenance have some concerns about the additional erosion that can be caused by the metal tips of trekking poles in areas of high ground. The worry is the damage caused to delicate vegetation along the edges of the path by the post holes formed by a metal tip. Using a rubber ferrule in areas of soft ground could go some way to allaying these fears. 

While we're on the subject of trekking poles, a few words about maintenance. If yours has got particularly wet or muddy it's a good idea to take it apart, clean any grit out from the insides of the tubes and allow them to fully dry out before re-assembling. This helps to keep them running smoothly and avoids corrosion to the inner face of the aluminium.
