Specifically Designed with The Camino In Mind: Small Gear. Big Impact!
Well Peregrinos, it was bound to happen...I created, what I believe are THE BEST tips for the Camino! Trying many different brands over the years I have taken the best qualities of each and poured that into my Shell Toucher Tips! In short, I've fine tuned the tip!
These were designed on the Camino, not at a desk. After much testing, tweaking, and refining over multiple trips, this is the rubber tip I wish I had from day one.
What Makes My Tips Better
• "Tortilla Yellow" color increases visibility on roads and in low light. Drivers see you sooner.
• The unique bright yellow tips make your trekking poles easy to spot fast in dim albergue, hostel dorms and early morning light. No more guessing which poles are yours.
• Beefy, pure, natural rubber construction lasts longer than standard tips. No thin, fast wearing rubber or plastic. Wider, chunkier footprint than standard tips.
• Reinforced with an internal steel washer for strength and shape retention.
• A tighter, snugger fit makes these tips harder to lose!
• Extra grippy rubber compound performs better on wet stone, cobbles, pavement, and slick sidewalks.
• Thicker base absorbs more shock on hard surfaces like roads and town streets. Your wrists and upper body feel the difference.
Instantly switch from trail mode to town mode.
These tips silence your poles and turn them into grippy, street ready walking poles in seconds.
Perfect for:
• Town centers
• Cobblestones
• Sidewalks and boardwalks
• Historic streets, stairs and plazas
• Urban stretches of the Camino
No more obnoxious click clack.
Carbide tips are loud on hard surfaces. Everyone hears them. Rubber tips eliminate the noise and make you a more considerate walker in cities, towns, and quiet morning streets.
Protect history. Protect the trail.
Bare carbide tips scar stone, chip ancient surfaces, and damage fragile paths. Rubber tips help preserve historic sites and follow Leave No Trace principles without sacrificing stability.
Built for real world use.
• Better traction on rock, concrete, and pavement where bare carbide tips can slip
• More stable and cushioned feel on hard ground
• Protects your gear, skin, and clothing when poles are packed
• Extends the life of your carbide tips by preventing unnecessary wear
Why these over every other tips?
Many rubber tips are thin, slip easily, and look alike. These are thicker, tougher, and grippier. Designed specifically for long distance walking, mixed terrain, and real Camino conditions! (that's why I made them!)
A small upgrade that makes every step quieter, safer, and easier on your body.
If you walk the Way, these belongs in your kit!
