Leki
Leki is a German brand that has been known for its high-quality and innovative poles and gloves since 1948. Founded by Karl Lenhart in Dettingen unter Teck, Leki has become a global market leader in winter sports, trekking, and Nordic walking. The brand is synonymous with precision, reliability, and a relentless pursuit of the best technologies for outdoor athletes.
Key Features of Leki Products:
Trigger S and Trigger 3D System: This is Leki's revolutionary technology for ski poles and gloves. The Trigger S and the newer Trigger 3D systems allow the glove to click directly into the pole grip. In the event of a fall, the connection releases to reduce the risk of injury. This system provides a perfect link between hand and pole, which optimizes power transfer and ensures more control.
Speed Lock 2 Plus: For trekking and hiking poles, Leki's Speed Lock 2 Plus system is a key technology. This external adjustment system allows for quick and secure length adjustment of the poles, even with thick gloves and in extreme cold. The high holding force ensures that the poles won't give way under load.
High-Quality Materials: Leki uses first-class materials like high-strength aluminum or ultra-light carbon. The carbon tubes are particularly light and stiff, making them ideal for racing or demanding tours, while the aluminum offers high robustness for daily use.
Ski Gloves with GORE-TEX® and Primaloft®: Leki's gloves are perfectly matched to the poles and offer first-class protection. They are often equipped with waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX® membranes and high-performance insulation like Primaloft®, which keeps hands warm and dry even in extreme conditions.
Leki is the brand of choice for anyone who values safety, ergonomics, and precision—whether on the ski slopes or hiking in the mountains.
