Official Urban Poling ACTIVATOR® Poles (Original Silver, Grey & Red)
The ACTIVATOR® Original Poles in silver, grey, and red are evidence-based walking poles designed with rehab, balance, and long-term mobility in mind. Unlike traditional trekking poles, ACTIVATOR® poles use a patented, strapless support system to help off-load joints, improve stability, and encourage a more upright walking posture.
Proudly Canadian
We supply official Urban Poling / ACTIVATOR® products in Canada. Buy with confidence knowing you’re receiving authentic poles manufactured to the original specifications.
Arthritis Foundation Ease of Use Certified
ACTIVATOR® Walking Poles are certified by the Arthritis Foundation as an Ease of Use product. This certification recognizes products designed to make everyday tasks easier for individuals living with arthritis or joint pain. The ACTIVATOR® design supports improved mobility, comfort, and confidence during walking.
Why ACTIVATOR® Poles Are Different
- Strapless support: uses a wide ledge (instead of a wrist strap) for safer, more comfortable support.
- CoreGrip™ design: ergonomic grip intended to reduce wrist strain while supporting balance and off-loading.
- Stable tips: bell-shaped tips designed to improve stability on typical walking surfaces.
- Reduced vibration: built-in anti-vibration features to minimize stress on joints.
Who These Poles Are For
These poles are commonly chosen by people who want extra confidence and support while walking — including those working on balance, posture, or walking endurance. They may also be used as part of a rehab plan when recommended by a healthcare professional.
