I am looking to get some extended grip poles that are adjustable.

Check these Deorum Poles out for reference:


Anyone have any input on any brands for less expensive poles?

Just wrap some hockey tape around your pole on the cheapest adjustables you can find

Black Crows do a set, I don't ahve them personally but have been eyeing them up for touring:

Although just spotted your comment about cheaper versions, not sure how much they are in USD, but they're pretty pricey in EUR

Find the cheapest adjustable pole and wrap some bar tape around it. I prefer non adjustable poles for touring, I just get them one size longer than my inbounds poles. lighter, more durable and cheaper

I have Folkrm ones and love them, I really am not sure why you would pick extended grip and adjustable. I searched a while specifically for good extended grip fixed length.

Find some cheapo (stolen, vail can afford it) rentals on the long side for you and wrap em with bike tube. (cut it into strips and hold ends with electrical tape.)

I snagged some foam grips from CentralParkSkiClub and added them to my old Joystick Spicolli’s. They’ve been awesome so far.
