Highlander Himalayan Trek 2010

£48.00

The Highlander Himalayan Trek has some carbon fibre in the shaft material, which reduces the weight of this pole to a very respectable 516g per pair. Packed length is good too at just 57cm. The foam handle is well-contoured with an extension down the shaft, which makes this a very comfortable pole to grip on a variety of terrain. There ...

Highlander Neptune

£50.00

This is a relatively lightweight kit bag made from a not very puncture-resistant fabric that is welded at the seams to create a waterproof design. The main closure is a rolltop design to again ensure waterproofness. You get a removable shoulder strap, and you could carry the bag on the shoulders with the standard carry handles. But the main closure ...

These trekking poles from Highlander have a good handle. The carbon fibre makes for a more flexible pole than the aluminium usually used. The four sections suffer from frequent slippage – markings on the lower two sections would help identify the slipped section. The lowest section is so thin it is very hard to grip tight enough – and as ...
