I got these in 2019 in costco for the same price. I live in Northern California & a few hours from 1 of the most beautiful places on earth, if not THE most beautiful, Yosemite National Park.

Pros: always love cork, lightweight
always love carbon fiber, lightweight
the tips can be changed for different functionality

Con: the strap does not adjust & lock into place, so they ALWAYS gradually move into the loosest strap slack when hiking.
The loose strap may make you fiddle around with grips while moving arms. So there is the potential to be less accurate when placing pole in steep cliff areas, so a bit unsafe as well. Wrist or forearm skin can also start chafing b/c the straps are not properly fit. I can tie a double knot, but it's an unideal & crude solution compared to other poles' locking ability.

That's my review & those were my experiences.

The 1 con mostly makes them to a backup set, or letting friends use. This is b/c when hiking 15+ miles, it's best to have properly engineered & functioning gear.

They are a great bang for your buck tho, b/c you cannot find cork & carbon fiber anywhere else for that price.
These are 100% the best deal in hiking poles. You'd have to spend $100+ to find any that are significantly better, and not THAT much better. Thru-hikers carry these for thousands of miles. They're light (1lb for the pair) and reliable.

A great long-term review is here [andrewskurka.com]. Summary: they're good, and there's only two slight downsides. The original plastic locknuts can break (you can replace with metal ones from the hardware store) and the carbide tips will wear out a little faster than expensive poles, but you can replace them.
I picked these up at the Brentwood TN store. Sign said expiring 5/21.

Not clearance. I've been waiting for this sale to come back for quite some time. It's finally back just in time for hiking with the weather getting better in my state.

Note, not all stores carry this. I noticed it was on sale online, so I made the point of going to the one store I know that carries this and sure enough it has it on sale in store as well, $10 cheaper per pair. And you don't need to buy 2 pairs.

That seems to be the biggest complaint, the strap. Any way to replace the straps?

I'll try the poles again with double knots and see if I can enjoy them with knots & then no adjustability.

most likely need the correct parts or more intuitive craftsmanship than me. there is a lateral small 3mm metal rod that is stamped across the top of the pole. The rod may be able to be punched out. The straps make a sideways U wrapping around the rod.
It looks like this youtube video, [youtube.com] but without the beginning screw part, the beginning screw part is screwed onto a fairly large locking mechanism part. The Cascade Mountain poles do not have a large cutout to accommodate the locking/clamping part. I wish Cascade Mountain designed poles with a locking function like in the video.

Here is the Cascade Mountain exact same style of straps [youtube.com] & in my real world hiking, the poorly designed hard plastic cube just comes out with MINIMAL force and hiking impacts. OR even with the cube jammed in the pole hole, the cube doesn't grip onto anything & the cube still lets the straps slip all the way to loose. The cube is no good, if hiking like me where I put a bit of pressure or weight on my wrists & straps (& hand grip) to hike uphill. it's like their designers thought "just cram an object in a hole, lol har har".

If somebody does upgrade any of these types of straps, please lemme know the picture write up guide or youtube video, TIA

Good slickdeal tho OP, these poles are good for me with no adjustability, or good for hikers who don't really use the straps, as all the other materials & features on the poles are great.

Fantastic poles. I got last time Costco had them and extremely happy. Cork and carbon fiber (best setup) is impossible to find at this price. Carbon fiber makes them very lightweight but strong at the same time.

is there any way to figure out if your local store carries them other than going to the store to check?
