Adjustable Nordic walking poles

I looked through Amazon and identified some adjustable length Nordic walking poles at different prices.

This one is moderately priced on Amazon.



This one is a little more expensive but not overly so (I don't find it on Amazon, so you would have to go to the site): https://www.nordixx.com/products/nordixx-poles/poles/nordixx-global-traveler/

Back to products on Amazon. These are the higher end poles.
