Description
The LEKI Aergon Air Real Cork 16mm is a replacement grip set for LEKI Ultralite and lightweight trekking poles with a 16mm upper shaft diameter. It features the Aergon Air grip shape in genuine natural cork — a premium material that moulds to the hand with use, wicks moisture, and stays warm and comfortable across a wide temperature range.
Includes the Lock Security Strap Skin 4.0 for a secure, adjustable wrist connection. Colour: Black. Sold as a left and right pair.
Why it matters on the mountain
- Real cork — not a blend — Natural cork moulds gradually to hand shape with repeated use, provides excellent grip when wet, and stays warmer than rubber or foam in cold conditions. It is a genuine performance material, not a cost-saving substitute.
- Aergon Air grip shape — The extended Aergon Air profile offers a large, edgeless primary grip area plus a lower extension for planting on steep ground. Multiple hand positions across a full day reduces fatigue on long ascents.
- Includes Skin Strap 4.0 — replaces both grip and strap in one purchase, restoring the full handle assembly to original specification.

HIGHLIGHTS
Real Cork — What It Means in Practice ▼
Natural cork provides three practical advantages over synthetic grip materials: it absorbs perspiration rather than becoming slippery, it maintains a comfortable temperature in cold air, and it gradually conforms to the user's grip shape across repeated use. For long days on the hill, these properties compound into noticeably less hand fatigue than hard rubber or foam alternatives.
Fitting — 16mm Shaft ▼
Designed for LEKI poles with a 16mm upper shaft diameter. Confirm your pole's upper section diameter is 16mm before ordering. For poles with an 18mm upper shaft, a different replacement grip is required. See compatible models in the COMPATIBILITY section below.
Sold as a Pair ▼
Each purchase includes two grips — left and right — plus two Lock Security Strap Skin 4.0 straps. Both poles are replaced in one purchase. Price shown is for the pair.
