Trekking Pole LEKI Cross Trail FX Superlite compact Women

The LEKI Cross Trail FX Superlite compact Women trekking pole is a lightweight, foldable pole designed for trail running and fast hiking. At approximately 197 g (7 oz) and folding to under 16 inches, it offers compact transport and low weight for warm-weather outings. The pole is adjustable between 100 and 120 cm using the Speed Lock 2 plus lever and combines a carbon shaft with the Cross Shark grip and a breathable oversized mesh strap for secure contact and ergonomic hand support. A foam grip extension provides additional hand positions for varied terrain and pace.

Advantages

The pole’s foldable construction and compact packed length make it easy to stow in a backpack or attach to luggage. Its carbon construction keeps overall weight low while maintaining stiffness for reliable push-off and support on uneven trails. The Speed Lock 2 plus system provides fast, tool-free length adjustment and secure clamping. The Cross Shark grip pairs the rapid handling of trail-running shark-style systems with hiking-oriented ergonomics, and the breathable oversized mesh strap improves comfort during extended use.

How to use

Before use, set the pole length with the Speed Lock 2 plus lever to a comfortable height within the 100–120 cm range.

Recommendations

Use the pole for dynamic activities such as trail running or fast hiking where lightweight gear and quick adjustments matter. Regularly inspect the locking lever and folding joints for wear, and clean the mesh strap and grips after muddy or sweaty use to maintain comfort and function.
