BALANCE-BALANCE-BALANCE

I'm a right above the knee amputee as of 4/3/23 and have had my prosthesis about 6.5 months. I have been through PT and have on going balance problems. I'm told this is common. I have never use poles of any kind, I do use a cane. The feeling of being safer than with the cane is amazing. I can walk about twice as far as with cane and with less fatigue. I still use the cane around the house and for short jaunts. I will be starting advanced gait training 5/1/24 and my new PT is a fan of walking poles, so I will seen how she uses the poles in this new training.
The grips are a little small for me, Lauren suggested wrapping them tennis racket handle rewrap and the seems to have solved it.

The description doesn't do this product enough justice. They are way better than the description ever said! Not only are they great on wet surfaces, but they work amazing for anyone who works in food service around greasy floors! I work at a McDonald's where the floor is super slick and greasy and oily and these give me a decent amount of traction on said surface. Truly amazing.

Amazing product! 10/10 would recommend! I can move and be free again! I'm not limited to flat ground and short distances. Costumer service is just as amazing if not better than the product itself. I had a rubber tip split and break 3 days after receiving it and they listened and problem solved to find a solution. Truly amazing, genuinely caring people. I wish there was more I could do to give them the recognition they deserve! I will definitely continue working with them in the future!

Cape Cod Nordic walking poles

First and foremost, I want to talk about the customer service. I
received a phone call from a person, not a computer-generated voice, that my order was going to be a day late due to weather in their area. It is so rare these days to be treated so personally that I am so amazed. That alone has boosted my experience with this company to the toppest level. Not to mention the craftsmanship and style of these polls! I highly highly recommend this company and their priducts. And I, intend to look up this company when I go to Cape Cod to personally thank them as they personally treated me amazingly.

Fairly sturdy, fairly comfortable

These work alright for me. I think these could use more molded hand pieces, and they have a bit of wobble to them where they join. I'm going to add some foam tape to try to improve the former. Overall I still recommend them, though.
