The Nordic walking poles from Juskys are characterised by their high-quality workmanship and elegant appearance.
Made from aluminium, the telescopic poles offer a robust yet lightweight construction that meets the needs of users. The cork handles in particular have met with mixed approval, as they are not only ergonomically shaped but also offer a firm grip. Unfortunately, they are a little rough to the touch, which is noticeable during prolonged use. Visually, the poles impress with their simple, black design, which looks timeless and stylish.
Overall, the product is said to have a very good finish and an appealing design, which further improves the user experience.

Price/performance ratio

Points
At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €69.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €19.99 . The hiking poles from Juskys are therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €29.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
