Comfort is key when you’re on a long hike and nothing quite offers a blister free grip than cork topped trekking poles. The Alpine carbon cork trekking poles offer the best of both worlds when it comes to their weight and comfort but also come in at a more affordable price when compared with more hardcore trekking poles.
The Poles feature soft-touch ergonomic grip tops with all-natural cork grips and EVA foam extensions for maximum comfort and are both topped off with solution straps for premium performance. The interchangeable tech trips are compatible with most aftermarket ones but also feature included carbide tech tips. The Black Diamond Alpine Carbon Cork Trekking Poles are available for $179.95.
