LEKI Makalu Lite CORTEC AS (Closeout) Trekking Poles (Pair)

LEKI Makalu Lite CORTEC AS trekking poles combine durability, a broad range of adjustability, user-friendly locking mechanisms, and built-in shock absorption to provide reliable backcountry performance.

Incorporating a positive angle that preserves a natural position for your wrists the dynamic lightweight Aergon Compact CORTEC grips have an ovoid shape that can be palmed or held traditionally. The grips are made from 80% natural ground cork and 20% latex making them strong and comfortable.

These poles feature LEKI's Dynamic Suspension System (DSS) that reduces stress on the joints, muscles and ligaments. This system reduces the peak impact force by up to 40%, protecting muscles, joints and ligaments. LEKI places the DSS Antishock system close to the point of impact by placing the system right above the tip of the pole. By utilizing the integrated easy-to-use Speed Lock levers, you can adjust the length of the poles from 39.3"-53.1".

Carbide flex tips deflect up to 30 degrees without damaging the lower pole sections. This reduces the risk of pole breakage if poles get caught between rocks or tree roots on the trail. LEKI’s Trekking Basket 2.0’s are included and are interchangeable with other baskets (sold separately).

The poles are treated with a matte-clear coat and an Eloxal finish to protect them from scratches and weather while providing a polished look.

LEKI Makalu Lite CORTEC AS trekking poles are sold in pairs.
