Explorer Contour Powerlock Trekking Poles

Yes, they are designed as 4-season poles. They feature the Vario basket system, which allows you to quickly swap out standard trekking baskets for larger winter baskets to prevent sinking in deep snow.

The extended grip allows you to choke up on the pole when traversing steep, uneven terrain. You can adjust your hand position for better balance without having to stop and manually shorten the pole length.

The Powerlock 3.0 is Komperdell's strongest locking system. It uses highly rigid anodized aluminum, which provides a secure hold that is less prone to slipping than plastic-based lever locks.

Komperdell offers a 3-year repair service for all their telescopic poles. They will repair the poles free of charge, regardless of how the damage occurred.

Yes, the poles come with padded wrist straps that are designed to be easily adjusted. This ensures you can find a comfortable fit whether you are wearing gloves or hiking with bare hands.

No, the poles come equipped with standard trekking baskets. While the Vario system makes it easy to switch baskets, you will need to purchase winter-specific baskets separately.
