The Leki Cressida is a women's-specific pole that has many of Leki's great features for an incredible trekking experience. The 3-section, 7075 Series heat-treated Ultralite aluminum shafts adjust from 64-125cm (25"- 49"). The Ultralite shaft series highlights LEKI's superiority in high-grade Aluminum technology by using smaller diameter, thinner wall tubing along with a proprietary heat-treating (tempering) process. The result is strength and unsurpassed resiliency on the trail.
