Vive Folding Cane – Foldable Walking Cane for Men, Women – Fold-up, Collapsible, Lightweight, Adjustable, Portable Hand Walking Stick – Balancing Mobility Aid – Sleek, Comfortable

light and well-functioning
I had ordered a different, highly-rated cane previously which was close to 16 ounces and I thought the weight would be no problem as I’m a man in my mid-50s. After walking around the house with it for 10 min or so straight, my hand became really sore. My hand was sore for days afterwards. So I thought I’d give the Vive a try, as it is only 8 ounces. So glad I did! I’ve had this cane for almost 4 months and have had zero problems with it. It is sturdy and attractive. It folds for easy storage when I traveled. I’ve used it for extended periods of time and my hand has never been sore due to it’s light weight and ergonomic design. I use it for balance issues and ataxia associated with a medical condition I have. I highly recommend this cane!

Comfortable and fashionable
I never thought I would be in my early 40s and so easily excited about getting a new cane, but here we are. At the risk of oversharing, here’s a bit of backstory. Some years ago I had two hernias and another four or five cancer-related surgeries more or less right on top of each other, and over a relatively short period of time. Unfortunately this repeated trauma resulted in very severe nerve damage and the pain only continues to worsen over time. I seriously cannot overexaggerate how much worse I hurt now than when I actually was tearing open, originating in my groin and often shooting down through my leg, into my foot, or up into my abdomen. Adjusting to a new normal has been very difficult, and you never realize how much you take for granted normal, everyday activities like walking, driving, sleeping, sitting at a desk, or even going to the bathroom until you need to ask for help doing so. Don’t even get me started on the merry-go-round of medications I’ve tried.But enough of my sob story. The point is that once I put my humility aside, a cane has proven very useful in getting around, and after some trial and error I have come to really love these ones by Vive. First, lets talk about all the cute colors and patterns available. If I have to walk around feeling like garbage I might as well look good doing it, right? I was first taken in by the snazzy leopard print, then ordered a plain purple, and very recently bought the slick grey poly. The price point is very fair and multiple canes come in handy for work, an extra in the car, or keeping in strategic places around the house. They are very easy to put together, and easy to take apart again if needed. The rubber tip has good grip and I personally really prefer the flat handled top, as opposed to a curve, which is not only more comfortable but feels sturdier in my hand when I put weight on it. I also appreciate the string on the handle which you can put around your wrist if you need to free up your hand for a moment. If I had to make one very, very small criticism I might suggest adding one more hole to make it just a smidge taller for very tall people like myself. But even so it’s very comfortable all around.So, again, if you have any hesitation at all I cannot recommend these Vive canes enough. It doesn’t solve all my health problems, of course, but it’s brought me some great comfort as far as really basic getting round. Plus I get a LOT of compliments on them, which feels good as well and makes me feel a little less conscientious about the whole thing.

Great compact folding cane. Very durable and comfortable.
Very stable design, compact storage and very solid interlock sections. Precision adjustments for height with good grip and footing. Also nice pattern on the shaft. Very easy to use and comfortable to walk with.

Awesome!
This is a great little cane! I bought it for trips to our local amusement park & it’s been fantastic. Other than setting off the metal detectors, I couldn’t be happier. It quickly & easily folds down to store in my backpack & is easy to unfold when I need to use it. The height adjusts easily. The grip is comfortable. The fun colors are great (I chose teal & used some cute stickers to personalize it). Having never used a cane before, I’m so happy that this 1 was my 1st experience because it was so positive.

Arrived super fast! And is of fantastic quality very happy

Si eres una persona alta, este es el bastón indicado. Mucho tiempo estuve buscando un bastón con la altura adecuada en tiendas especializadas en ortopedia sin éxito. Mido 1.70m, pero mis piernas son muy largas en comparación a mi torso y los bastones recomendados siempre me quedaban muy bajos. El bastón tiene cinco niveles de altura ajustable de 2.5cm entre sí (yo lo uso en la tercera ranura).El color es diferente al de la publicación, pero en mi opinión se ve mucho mejor en persona. A pesar de ser plegable tiene la resistencia de un bastón fijo y es muy ligero. Viene con una bolsa para guardarlo y no ocupa mucho espacio. Muchos bastones dejan una marca en el suelo, sin embargo no es el caso con este bastón ya que la base es de goma.El mango es completamente negro (y no combinado como en la publicación), no es duro, pero si tienes manos muy grandes la curvatura podría resultar un poco incómoda (mi mano mide 18cm desde la base de la palma hasta la punta del dedo medio y me resultó bastante cómodo).Accidentalmente raspé la orilla de una sección contra la pared y la pintura sólo se talló un poco, por lo que podría afirmar que el acabado será duradero.
