Silva says: 

Silva Trekking poles aluminium cork are made of high-quality aluminium with smooth cork handles. 7075 aluminium ensure poles that will last for a long time and that will support your body during long hikes.

Adjust the length up to 140 cm with the easy aluminium “flick-lock” system. The poles can be conveniently pushed together into three pieces and carried in your backpack, or attached to your backpack, when not needed.

These poles have cork handles for a smooth feeling and extended foam handles for hiking in steep terrain or when you want to change grip quickly, or want shorter poles. The wrist straps are soft and easy to adjust and will make trekking with your poles comfortable even on full day or multi day hikes.

Do you go on hikes in muddy terrain or even in lots of snow? These poles include removable snow baskets, rubber paws and interchangeable tips. Bring your poles on all your adventures regardless of the season without risking wearing them out. The carbide tips are concave for even better grip on trails and in rough terrain. Snow baskets, carbide tips and rubber paws can also be bought as spare parts.

Store your poles in the included storage bag in between adventures, and the poles will be ready for a hike whenever you are. And remember that there is always more to discover.

Our Verdict

These are strong poles that I’ve been using on some challenging terrains, and they have held up brilliantly; I am confident to put my full weight on them.

The flick lock seems very secure. However, there doesn’t seem to be a way to tighten them with a tool, such as an Allan key. You do it with your hands, which is fine, but I’d prefer to be able to secure them with a tool.

The snow baskets are easy to attach, and if you prefer rubber “paws”, they are included.
