FAQ
How to choose the right folding trail running poles?
When shopping for folding trail running poles, focus on weight, stiffness, folding mechanism, length suited to your height, and material. For more details, check out our dedicated guide: how to choose your trail poles.
Should you choose folding or telescopic trail poles?
Folding models collapse into fixed sections for maximum compactness, while telescopic poles adjust in length but are slightly bulkier.
Are carbon poles fragile?
Carbon is stiff and lightweight but more sensitive to impacts. For intensive use on rough terrain, aluminium or hybrid models are recommended.
What pole length should you choose for trail running?
Use the formula: runner’s height x 0.68. For example, for 1.75 m, choose poles around 119 cm long.
