Stay on the safe side this winter with LEKI’s two-piece, adjustable Helicon Lite pole. Made from high-strength aluminium, the Helicon has a diameter of 16mm and 14 mm, making it incredibly robust.

Exploring the Isle of Wight with the 54 Trek GTX

Sailing towns, sandy seafronts, breath-taking scenery everywhere you look. That's the stunning Isle of Wight, one of the most picturesque paradises to enjoy the outdoors in the UK. Walking through the Isle of Wight is a must-do activity for modern adventurers and what a better companion if not our 54 Trek GTX.

The upper in crazy horse leather is combined with a light, microporous Adula Vibram® sole that absorb impact while offering lightness and grip on all surfaces. The GORE-TEX lining makes for excellent breathability and waterproofing, while the rubber rand ensures great protection from knocks and blows. The DAS Light technology provides comfort and postural stability. Comfort, durability and performance are combined in this shoe with a splendidly Italian design, a new “classic” that has already become an icon.
