This lightweight aluminum palm grip walking cane is designed to follow the contours of your hand, so such a tight grip isn't necessary. These canes are much more comfortable than standard cane handles, so they are great for people experiencing problems due to carpel tunnel syndrome and arthritis. These canes also have an adjustable shaft from 30 to 39" to make it more convenient for those who need to make their walking cane shorter or longer.
The shaft is 7/8" diameter with a lower tube of 3/4" diameter. Replacement rubber tip size is ¾”.
Choose 1 of 3 easy ways to determine cane length before placing order.
1. Measure the size of an existing cane.
Do this method by simply measuring from the top of the handle to the bottom of the rubber tip.
2. Measure the cane user
1. Put on the user's walking shoes. 2. Have the user stand naturally upright as much as possible. 3. Have their arms fall to the sides naturally with a normal relaxed bend at the elbow. 4. Using a tape measure or yard stick, measure the distance from their wrist joint (bottom crease at the wrist) down to the floor. Round up to the nearest half inch.
3. Measure half the height in inches.
1. Convert height into inches...(example 66 Inches) then divide in half = 33 inches. 2. Then add half an inch to this height. 3. After receiving product use step #2 to confirm and change size if needed.
The Estimated height would be 33.5 inches for this example.
(Although this works for most cane users it is not always exact. Choose this option at your own risk)
