"The Catbells represent excellent value for what you’re getting here. There are lighter poles out there – including within Harrier’s own collection – but I still found that these were impressively light and convenient to carry. One of the things the brand has really stood out for is its running poles."

Frequently asked questions
Size & Height
Adjustable height poles for optimal streamlined design and superior lightweight.
The poles can be adjusted between 110cm and 125cm, which we would suggest is suitable for heights between approximately 5ft 3 and 6ft.
Stand with your elbow at 90 degrees with your running shoes on. Adjust your poles to be the correct height so they are parallel with your legs whilst maintaining this bend in the elbow.
Materials & Tech
Premium, 7075 aluminium. Stronger than standard aluminium used by other brands.
Stainless steel parts prevent degradation, and the chunky deployment button is easy on the hands.
The handles are custom moulded, ultralight, smooth EVA with a slim, ergonomic design, meaning they won't rub your hands like other brands.
Clean & Care
Wash when needed with warm water and mild soap, ensuring you remove mud from locks, baskets, and tips. Wipe with a cloth, air dry completely before reassembly to prevent corrosion, and avoid using oil on inner mechanisms, which can cause slipping.
Cleaning and Care Routine:
Post-Run Routine: Wipe down poles with a damp cloth to remove dirt, moisture, and dust.
Tips and Baskets: Clean around integrated mud baskets and check carbide tips, cleaning out any debris.
Drying (Crucial Step): Allow poles to air dry completely while disassembled. Trapped moisture leads to oxidation and stuck sections.
Avoid Damage: Never use acidic cleaners (like vinegar) or strong detergents, as this can cause corrosion.
Lubrication: Do not lubricate the inner locking mechanisms; this can cause them to fail.
Storage: Store in a dry area in a fully collapsed, but dry, condition.
