Fit Guide
How to measure:
On flat ground, the top of the trekking pole handle should be at waist or hip level and your elbow at 90 degress.
For Walking, hiking and backpacking: stability and support matter most. Size up if you're right on a size cusp.
For Running : uphill propulsion matters most. Size down if you're right on a size cusp.
