Product Details
York Nordic poles are high quality walking poles that combine innovative features with stylish design. Poles are made from high grade 7075 aluminum and feature our dark gray ""Man up"" design inspired by one of our most active walker's husband who just wanted a 'tougher' pole to use when he banged out a few miles.
Poles adjust easily using our exclusive flip locks that quickly snap (and stay) in place. All poles come with a screw on 'basket' for snow and sand walking and have a sturdy tungsten steel tip. We've even included detachable rubber feet and free travel bag! Expand from 32 to 54 inches (81.3 to 137.1 cm) making it easy to adjust to any height up to 6'2". Weight: 9 oz each (1.8 as a pair)
Come your choice of 3 grip styles:
Trek Grip: The contoured foam supports your hand and fleece lined strap provides great wrist support. Perfect for variable terrains. The bottom of the grip has an extended foam grip area that provides extra grip at a lower point on the pole for steeper trails.
Nordic Cork Grip: Easy click out release glove style strap maximizes pole control and push while allowing you to quickly release from the pole when needed. Our grip is thicker than traditional Nordic grips making it more comfortable. Strap has a specially designed end that makes it easier to get the strap secured with less frustration.
Motivator Grip: The patented contoured grips provide two contoured thumb support positions which stabilize the trapeziometacarpal joint. (thumb pinches via left arrow or grasps via right arrow) and reduce strain on CMC thumb joint.
Every order includes free access to an online instructional videos.

I think the design of the hand piece and the sturdiness of the poles is great for patients with gait instability and for hiking.
These crutches are definitely easier on the hands and armpits. The graphics are okay, but the company name/logo covers half of the whole graphic on each side of each crutch. That's a bit much, IMHO. Since the graphics are vinyl prefab stickers, that issue was remedied with a wide black perm. marker. I've had these for 2 weeks, and other than a slight metal on metal sound when the spring is compressed, they've worked well. I would recommend them.
This is my first set of forearm crutches and I do love the entire special fit parts of them. There were a couple small hiccups that just edge out giving the 5/5, but I do not regret buying these.
1st thing I had a small issue with- the adjustment **** for the length of the forearm are really hard to adjust and I ended up hurting my thumb the first time trying to adjust them. The **** for the angle adjustment are SO easy to use that I was surprised that these would be so much more difficult.
The 2nd issue I encountered was trying to get the cushion + adhesive to get properly into place on the arm cuffs. Two have already fallen off due to the difficulties I had getting them in the proper alignment and the adhesive just not wanting to stick. I’m sure this was user error, but it still lead to overall difficulty getting started.
All of this to say, I don’t regret for one moment purchasing these and I have already used them in a variety of situations, and I am so happy to have these as an additional option for my own mobility.
Bought a set of smart crutches because I had my left foot operated on and I'm still dealing with a right rotator cuff injury and the regular standard style crutchesjust would not work. These help take a lot of the weight off of my rotator cuff and place it more on my lower forearm and hands. Great product.
Very cute colors and work well, simple out of box setup in 2 seconds.
