Steady support with comfort at the forefront.
Leki says:
The LEKI Legacy Lite Pro is a compact, lightweight trekking pole set designed for hikers who want maximum comfort and control in a shorter length range. With a robust 3-piece aluminium shaft and compact 64–125 cm adjustment, it is ideal for smaller users, steeper terrain and trips where a small packed size matters.
The EVOCON Thermo grip offers a comfortable, secure hold with an extended foam zone for flexible hand positions on climbs. The Positive Angle Safety (PAS) grip and adjustable strap give reliable support, while the Dynamic Suspension System (DSS) anti-shock unit above the tip noticeably reduces impact on joints and ligaments during long descents or hard trails. Speed Lock+ external clamps make length adjustment quick and secure, even with gloves or wet hands.
Stable, comfortable and easy to adjust, the Legacy Lite Pro is a versatile all-round trekking pole for day hikes, hut-to-hut tours and multi-day backpacking.
Our Verdict
The LEKI Legacy Lite Pro Trekking Poles strike a nice balance between low weight and everyday practicality. At 232g per pole, they feel light enough for long days on the trail while retaining the reassuring stability of aluminium poles.
The EVOCON Thermo grip is the standout feature for me. The ergonomic shape sits comfortably in the hand, while the grip extension makes it easy to adjust hand position on steeper terrain. I also like the inclusion of the Dynamic Suspension System. Anti-shock systems can be divisive, but this one does a good job of softening repeated impacts on harder surfaces without making the poles feel disconnected from the ground.
The 64-125cm adjustment range feels particularly practical, offering enough flexibility to suit a wide range of users while also adapting easily to changing terrain and trekking pole shelter setups.
