Mountaineering and hiking
Black Diamond and Leki are two of the most recognised names in mountain equipment internationally — and trekking poles are the standout product.
They are not walking aids for older people, as many assume. On descent, poles absorb a large share of the load the knee would otherwise take — which is why every experienced hiker uses them. On ascent they transfer effort to the arms, and at all times they give balance on unstable ground.
The practical point: for descent, lengthen the poles; for ascent, shorten them. It is the adjustment almost nobody makes and it changes the feel entirely.
Mountain eyewear: why ordinary sunglasses will not do
Julbo, Uvex and Alpina make eyewear for conditions ordinary sunglasses do not cover.
In the mountains, ultraviolet radiation increases with altitude — and snow reflects it upwards, doubling the exposure. An ordinary pair lets light in from the sides, exactly where the reflection comes from.
That is why mountain eyewear has side coverage and high protection category lenses. On snow or a glacier they are not an accessory — they are essential, and going without causes real eye problems.
And photochromic lenses, which darken on their own: on a route moving in and out of forest into open ground, they solve the problem of constantly taking glasses on and off.
Tennis and grips
Wilson with 32 products covers tennis, and Lizard Skins with 19 covers grips — the wraps that go on a racket, a club or handlebars.
The grip is the most underrated consumable in any sport involving a handle. It wears and becomes slippery — and a racket slipping in a sweaty hand is not merely awkward, it changes how you hold it and strains the wrist.
In practice: a fresh grip costs very little and is the cheapest upgrade you can make to equipment you already own.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need poles for hiking?
- On descent they absorb a large share of the load the knee would take. They are not an age-related aid — every experienced hiker uses them.
- How do I set pole height?
- Longer on descent, shorter on ascent. It is the adjustment almost nobody makes.
- Will ordinary sunglasses do in the mountains?
- Not on snow or at altitude. You need side coverage and a high protection category — snow reflection doubles the exposure.
- What are photochromic lenses?
- Lenses that darken by themselves according to the light. Useful on routes moving between forest and open ground.
- How often should I change a grip?
- When it starts to slip. It costs very little and protects your wrist.
For the mountains, the two that make the difference are poles and proper eyewear. And in any sport with a handle, a fresh grip is the cheapest upgrade.
