Gossamer Gear FT3 Folding Trekking Poles

Product detailed description

The Gossamer Gear FT3 folding trekking poles are a must-have for hiking, where you can also use them for setting up (not only) Gossamer Gear tents and tarps. Thanks to their low weight of just 360 g (per pair), compact size, and quick setup/take-down, they’ll find their place especially in the trail running community.

These are actually the collapsible version of the popular  Gossamer Gear LT5 poles.

The poles are three-piece and made of high-quality carbon fiber. This material effectively dampens vibrations while remaining sufficiently strong and lightweight. The grip is made of proven EVA foam. The poles are comfortable and quickly adjustable using notches. Owners of Gossamer Gear tents/tarps will appreciate the shelter icon for quick and precise setup.

When folded, the poles measure a minimalist 36 cm; the minimum adjustable length is 115 cm and the maximum is 130 cm. A range that should suit everyone.

The Gossamer Gear FT3 folding trekking poles are a great, compact alternative to the Gossamer Gear LT5. Lightweight, sturdy, and assembled in an instant.
