Question 1

Which type of walking stick is best for me?

Accepted Answer

The best walking stick depends on your needs! For stability, go for a walking stick with a rubber ferrule for grip. Short walks or dog outings? A hiking stick or thumbstick works great. Farmers might prefer a crook or market stick, while serious walkers will love the comfort of a Buffalo or Rams horn hiking stick for long treks.

Question 2

What is the correct length for a walking stick?

Accepted Answer

To measure the height of any walking stick, the base of the stick should be placed approximately 15cm from the outside of the foot and the handle height should be set at the wrist crease height. The elbow should be bent slightly (generally between 15 and 30 degrees) when holding the stick and standing upright.
For someone around 5'10 - 6' Standard length for any gent's walking stick  is 36"
For someone around 5'5" - 5'8 Standard length for any lady's walking stick  is 34"

For Thumbstick, Crook, Hiking Stick, and any long stick .
With your arms at your side, the stick should be about 6 or 8 inches taller than your elbow. Pick a longer stick if you'll be tackling steep terrain. If you're just planning on walking with your stick, a shorter one will do.
