The ST08 is a pure carbon fiber trekking pole built around a Z-fold system that collapses to as little as 36 cm — significantly more compact than a standard telescopic pole. It is available in three fixed lengths to suit different user heights, and at 150–170 g per pole it remains well within the ultralight category.

Best for
Ultralight hikers and trail runners who need a pole that packs down as small as possible for easy storage in or on a running vest or backpack.

Not ideal for
Hikers who prefer a continuously adjustable pole length, as the ST08 comes in fixed sizes rather than an adjustable range.

Additional features
- Z-fold mechanism collapses to 36–40 cm. Fits easily in a pack's side pocket or vest
- A pure carbon fibre shaft keeps weight low and absorbs trail vibration
- The moisture-wicking EVA handle keeps hands dry and comfortable in warm conditions
- Knitted nylon wrist strap adjustable for comfort and security
