Forclaz hiking pole caps review

Cost ★★★★☆

Performance ★★★★☆

Overall Score ★★★★☆

Verdict: A really useful addition to reducing the impact on your arm and getting traction on hard surfaces!


Designed for gripping on hard surfaces and reducing impact on your joints, these caps boast a flexible, yet robust design tailored for the rigours of hiking trails.

 

Crafted from 100% rubber, these caps from Decathlon feature a knobby pattern that ensures grip and traction on various terrains, from rocky paths to muddy trails. The rounded shape not only minimises noise but also absorbs shocks, providing a smoother hiking experience.

 

What sets these caps apart is their exceptional durability, a result of Decathlon’s extensive research and collaboration with seasoned hikers and trekking ambassadors. Through rigorous testing and feedback, they’ve developed a formulation that resists abrasion and deformation, offering three times less wear than previous models.

 

Installing the cap is easy– simply push it onto the pole tip with force, ensuring a snug fit that won't slip during your trek. Removing it is equally effortless, requiring just a simple twisting motion.
