Pole Diameter Guide

Not sure whether to go 40mm, 45mm, or 50mm? Answer a few quick questions and we'll suggest the most comfortable diameter — plus poles that offer it.

1. Your hand size

Approximate is fine — this helps us suggest a comfortable grip.

2. Experience level

3. Grip preference

Thinner poles are easier to wrap your hand around; thicker ones give more contact surface.

Recommendation is guidance only; try in person if possible.
