About LEKI
LEKI, the world’s leading maker of ski, hiking and trekking poles, had its start in Kircheim, Germany as a hobby of its founder, Karl Lenhart, an airframe mechanic and avid skier. Lenhart believed aluminum could make a superior ski pole in comparison to the heavy steel models available in the late 1940’s. After effectively creating lightweight poles for his friends, in 1954, the hobby became a full time business. LEKI originated the use of nylon webbing for straps and produced plastic molded grips and baskets in place of metal and leather. Also, Lenhart developed an aluminum tempering procedure that produces pole shaft with incomparable strength, durability, and dependability.
In 1984, Klaus Lenhart, Karl’s son, expected management and shortly there after developed the 1st dual component grip. He’s also accountable for improving adjustable pole locking technology and grip innovations like the Trigger Click In system and COR TEC, a material made of real cork and latex. As the ski market continued to flourish, LEKI began manufacturing hiking poles mainly for European mountain guides. The idea of using two poles as means of relieving stress on knee joints and the lower back appealed to climbers who also saw benefits in performance and safety. LEKI poles sooner or later caught on with the general hiking and trekking population that recognized and appreciated the preventive health benefits also as the climbing support and stabilizing effects. In 1990, LEKI USA has been incorporated. The North American market embraced the company’s line of alpine, Nordic, back country, mountaineering, Nordic walking, and trekking poles. Like their European counterparts who have been loyal to LEKI for almost five decades, North American outdoor fans know and appreciate LEKI quality and value.
