These are the first tips that have fit my Black Diamond trekking poles PERFECTLY! And these sturdy little buggers look like they'll last a LONG time!! Great price - i'm happy.

Spotted these on Vine and it reminded me that I needed new rubber feet for my poles. These are necessary to protect the pavement (not to mention avoiding other walkers turning their heads as you 'clack clack' along the road).After the usual quick delivery from Amazon, I dug out my poles - with various tips (see middle photo) - and fitted on the new rubber feet. They are a good firm fit (3rd photo), no chance of falling off.I was glad to discover they incorporated a washer (first photo) which may actually be moulded in (certainly I cound't get them to fall out). This prevents poles with a 'pointed tip' (see middle photo, top and bottom pole ends) from simply punching through their rubber ends (which is what happened to the original pole ends when the washer fell out)Then it's off for a long walk along the streets. Lots of firm stomping around later and I'm pleased to say the tips showed no signs of wear at all. Two more hour long walks with other poles and the new tips were still attached and still not showing wear.When you consider the price, less than a £1 each (£6.66 for 8) these are excellent value.I have no hesitation in recommending this product.

I'm an avid hiker, and between IT Band issues, torn meniscus, etc. I never know if I'll be dependent on using hiking poles or not. On trails, I tend to just take them with me, and use them most of the time—it gets my entire body more engaged, gives me a great sense of balance, and yes—makes it easier on my legs, even when they're not acting up.Around town, where I also walk a lot, I tend to use them less, unless I really need the additional support. That's where these tips come in. The tungsten tips on my poles do fine on sidewalk, even gripping pretty well, but they're a bit noisy, which I'm sure bothers people around me as much as it bothers me. And if I wanted to use them indoors, the metal tips will damage any flooring that's not as hard as stone.I've always bought replacement tips made by the makers of the various poles that I use. I've noticed that they seem to all work with each other. I needed another pair, and saw this set (of 8, for about what a pair of the OEM tops cost).Well, these are nicer than any of the tips I've used. I'm attaching a photo showing several different designs. The grey one is brand new, the other black one is slightly worn. Look how much tread (and it is an actual tread pattern!) is on the Trekology pole tips!The other nice feature is to hard to try and photograph. At the bottom of the hole, inside, there is a small metal washer, and the recess goers down a bit deeper than that. This is a solid platform for the pole end to rest on, with the tungsten tip projecting down just a bit deeper—basically, it keeps the metal tip from perforating the rubber overtip. While most of the OEM tips have this, not all do.So—if you need new rubber tip ends on your hiking sticks, I don't think you can go wrong with these Trekology ones.
