Design

In addition to its durability, the rubber material of this cap has a higher grip coefficient on hard ground (road, stones, tree roots).
The V-shaped knobs are designed to provide good grip on soft ground (dirt, mud).

Our other technical choices

Push the cap forcefully onto the tip so the flexible material adapts to the tip. It is important to hit the ground hard 2 to 3 times to ensure full insertion.
The grip on the pole tip has been designed so that the cap does not come off easily when walking. The grip is best on a clean tip but decreases if there is any dust or moisture on the tip.
To remove it, pull it off with a twisting motion. This will make it much easier to remove.

With Wrist Strap

Main Material

This pole was designed and validated by our Mont Blanc team.
The pole is equipped with an external locking mechanism for precise, fast adjustment. Combined with a pushpin system so it unfolds and folds automatically. 
The handle allows multiple grips: along the tube for climbs and steep terrain, with the wrist strap for efficient pushing, and on the knob for descents.
Made from 7075-T6 aluminum for controlled weight.

While holding the grip, your arm should bend at a 90-degree angle. To do this: 
- Pull the bottom strand all the way out until the auto pushpin (metal button) locks. 
- Open the lever of the external blocker. 
- Slide the tube to the desired length. 
- Close the lever. 
Never exceed the Stop line to avoid breaking the pole.

How to adjust your poles to the correct length

This hiking pole is designed to help you balance, propel yourself, and distribute weight between your arms and legs.
To be on the safe side, check before you set off and at regular intervals that your pole is locked in place by simulating heavy bumps. If you notice that your pole keeps sliding out of place, the locking mechanism turn ring needs adjusting. Open the lever and turn the knob a quarter to a half turn.
Do not put it on your backpack in case of a storm.

Directions for use

Proper maintenance of your pole will ensure that it functions optimally and lasts longer.
After use, if water has penetrated the pole, remove the strands and allow them to dry. If necessary, clean the dust or mud with water or a dry brush. Once dry, you can reassemble the strands.
Do not oil or grease the mechanisms.

Care instructions

Decathlon sells hiking and trekking poles individually. This is because they are used in different ways. Some people prefer to use only one pole. If someone uses a pair and one pole breaks, they can replace one broken pole without buying a new pair.

Why is the pole sold individually?

Forclaz hiking poles have a wide range of compatible accessories and spare parts. So you can enjoy it as long as possible.

How does my product warranty work?

We strongly recommend using poles for better stability when snowshoeing, especially if you intend to walk on slopes (uphill, downhill, etc.) or on powder snow. There are 2 types of baskets. Choose large baskets so the polls remain on the surface.

Using poles for increased stability when snowshoeing.

We tend to overdress when hiking in the snow because of the cold. However, once you get moving, you will warm up very quickly.
Use the three-layer technique. 
This technique lets you stay comfortable whatever your level of intensity: remove clothing when it is warm and put it back on when it is colder or during breaks. If you are too hot, you will sweat more, which will cool you down during breaks or when hiking downhill.

Choose breathable clothing for snowshoeing.

Whatever your cold-weather activity, use the three-layer technique:
Layer 1: A high-tech base layer to wick moisture away from the body and keep your skin dry.
 Layer 2: A fleece or sweater to provide warmth and transfer moisture outward.
 Layer 3: A jacket to protect against the elements (rain, snow, and wind). 
To eliminate moisture, the whole outfit must be breathable.

Dressing using the 3-layer technique

For off-piste hiking, make sure you are equipped with maps, a compass and/or GPS, an Avalanche Victim Detector, a shovel, and a probe. This equipment allows you to be found if you are caught in an avalanche, or to search for a victim. Do not forget to review your safety basics.

Safety first!

Before putting them on:
There is a left and right snowshoe. Check you have the correct snowshoe on each foot. The hook and loop tab straps must be closed outward. 

Adjustable:
Snowshoes must be properly adjusted to ensure your safety.
1/ Your feet must reach the front end to optimize shoe support.
2/ The 3 hook and loop tab straps must be fully tightened.

How to use the SH 100 Easy Snowshoes

Choose snowshoes based on the wearer’s weight (including the weight of their backpack) so they remain on the surface of the snow. This is known as lift. Different snowshoe sizes are available for various user weights and hiking practices.
Our advice for the SH 100 Easy Snowshoes: 

40 to 75 kg (88–165 lb.): medium deck, size M.
60 to 90 kg (132–198 lb.): large deck, size L.

Choose snowshoes according to your weight:

Size M
Width: 19 cm (7.4”).
Length: 48 cm (18.9”).

Size L
Width: 20 cm (7.9”).
Length: 56 cm (22”).

 Layer 3: A jacket to protect against the elements (rain, snow, and wind).

Dress using the three-layer technique

For snowshoeing, you need warm, waterproof, and breathable high-top hiking shoes. Choose shoes with grip for areas where you will remove your snowshoes (in the parking lot or if there is not enough snow).

What kind of shoes should I wear?

Make your snowshoes last longer! After-sale service is available in the workshop of your Decathlon store.

5-part folding pole. Collapsed length: 36cm (14”) Collapsed width: ~6x6cm (3x3”)

7075-T6 alum. Tube diameter 20/18/16/16/16mm (0.8/0.7/0.6/0.6/0.6”) Tungsten tip

Light and easy to adjust, this durable pole is designed to support you on the trails.

Designed and validated on real hikes: Mont Blanc in France, Atlas Mountains in Morocco, and Tenerife in the Canary Islands.
Durability was tested during a 550-km (341.7-mile) test mission in the Canaries and the Pyrenees (GR10).

You go hiking to get out in nature. You may need to carry your belongings for several days. That’s why you need a reliable pole.
We selected wider tubes in the highest-grade aluminum. We secured the pushpin area with internal reinforcement. Compression test results (pressure on the pole axis) show that this pole can support 560 N (~56 kg/123 lb) per pole.

Why did we work so hard on durability?

Before you begin your hike, you might have to travel by bus or plane. You’ll also have to carry all your equipment in your bag. Compact poles are easy to pack. When collapsed, this pole can fit in the side pocket of a hiking backpack.

Why make it compact?

We chose EVA foam, a soft material that’s resistant to perspiration and doesn’t tear easily.
We added a long grip below the handle for a lower hold when walking uphill and on banking terrain.
The knob is the most comfortable in the product line, with its elongated round shape and soft material. It is easily gripped from above.
The wrist strap is not too thick and has fewer seams, to prevent blisters.

How was the handle designed?

Using the pole: Extend the pole until the pushpin clicks. Refer to the instructions attached to the pole.
To adjust the length: While holding the grip, your arm should bend at a 90-degree angle. 
- Open the outer lever.
- Slide the tube to the desired length.
- Close the lever.
Never go over the Stop line to avoid breaking the pole.

This hiking pole is designed to help you balance, propel yourself forward, and reduce impact on your arms and legs.
To be on the safe side, check before you set off and at regular intervals that your pole is locked in place by simulating heavy bumps. If you notice that your pole keeps sliding out of place, the locking mechanism turn ring needs adjusting. Open the lever and turn the knob a quarter to a half turn.
Do not attach it to your backpack, as this can be hazardous in the event of a storm.

Proper maintenance of your pole will ensure that it functions optimally and that it lasts longer.
After use, if water has penetrated the pole, remove the strands and allow them to dry. If necessary, clean the dust or mud with water or a dry brush. Once dry, you can reassemble the strands.
Do not oil or grease the mechanisms.

Wrist Strap Type

Designed and validated by our team.
Why have we chosen the push pin? We want to make adjusting your poles easy. This system is simple, reliable, light, and cost-effective.

Why oversized tubes? Because this model is designed for walkers who want a reliable pole. Why a straight foam handle? Because our field tests have shown that foam is more comfortable than a plastic handle.

While holding the grip of your pole, your arm should bend at a 90-degree angle.
To do this: 
Pull on the lower part until the automatic push-pin system locks into place.
- Slide the tube from the middle until the upper push-pin reaches the desired hole. 
- Use the line printed on the lower tube to align the button with the holes.
Never go past the "Stop" line to avoid breaking the pole.

This hiking pole is designed to help you balance, propel yourself, and distribute weight between your arms and legs.
For safety, make sure your pole is locked in place with a few firm taps, both before you leave and at regular intervals. Don’t put it on your backpack in a storm.
Some users are sensitive to the whistling noise that can occur when the wind sweeps through the adjustment holes.

Decathlon sells hiking and trekking poles individually. This is because they are used in different ways. Some people prefer to use only one pole. If someone uses a pair and one pole breaks, they can replace one broken pole without having to buy a new pair.

Folded length: 58 cm (23”)
Unfolded length: 100 cm (39”).

Option for a summer or winter basket add-on.

Place of Practice

Your child’s arm should bend at a 90-degree angle while holding the pole. To adjust the pole: press the metal button so the sections can slide into each other. Repeat until you get the desired size.
   

How to adjust your pole

-> The minimum setting of 75 cm (30”) is suitable for a child who is 100 cm (3’4”) tall on average.
-> The maximum setting of 100 cm (39”) is suitable for a child who is 145 cm (4’9”) tall on average.

This is a general guideline only and may vary from one child to another.

Which size to choose for your child?

Before leaving on a hike: always check that your poles are properly assembled.
When going downhill or when the climb is very steep, you can make your poles longer.
When going downhill, remove the wrist strap so that the pole doesn’t get in your way in the event of a fall.
