KMINA Walking Stick Rubber Ends 17-19 mm, Crutch Ferrules, Black (2 units)

These seem to be very good. They are approx 3 to 4 times bigger than standard crutch ends and have a textured non slip finish. After near slipping on tiles, I'm confident these will be much safer. They also have a metal washer insert so the crutches don't dig into the rubber.

I've held off review these because my last few ventures into ferrule's has not been so good. What looks solid has broken or come apart very soon after fixing on. These have been on since January 2024 and is still working perfectly. I need my stick to walk so it is in constant use. It's not bent or buckled and when I finally have to replace them, I will most certainly be buying the same again.

I've been on crutches for the last 8 weeks, after I smashed my knee and was non weight bearing up until 3 days ago, the crutches supplied by the NHS are absolutely deadly, I had 2 nasty falls because the rubber feet are just not fit for purpose, I had zero confidence in them which seriously affected my mobility, I looked for replacement crutches but then stumbled across these, so I thought I'd take the plunge, I'm so glad I did, I have had zero slips since putting these on, and my confidence is back, I'm gonna be on crutches for another 2 months and would not have been able to get about on the original NHS setup, ...I WOULD 100% RECOMMEND THESE, TRUST ME YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. my kitchen is ceramic tiled, and my living room is polished hardwood floor, but these handle them with ease, I don't have to worry about my outdoor steps being wet,.. THESE HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE.

Very well made, heavy/sturdy. They were 4 times bigger than what I needed for my lightweight stick, I have donated them to a charity shop but still wanted to do a review to let you see the difference in the pictures so you can make an informed decision with a visual comparison also. Again, great value but just not for me and my clumsy feet.

As noted these are a tight fit for standard NHS elbow crutches. It does require a little diluted washing up liquid to help slide on. And a-bit of strength to push these on but it is worth it as they are then v secure and won’t get pulled off if caught at an angle and pulled . Wet floors eg in supermarkets is a major slip hazard but the tred grips tight. Also wider rim is more stable than the ones provided with the crutches. Well worth any hassle.

Our garden chairs have narrow legs made of metal tubing. They kept sinking into soft ground. These feet, although designed for crutches, fitted our chairs perfectly and solve the problem. They are very sturdy (and quite heavy), but flexible enough to cope with the slight angle of the back chair legs. Delivery was prompt. Very happy.

For the past 2 months I’ve been recovering from spinal surgery on crutches and walking sticks. After a scary moment when I fell after slipping on the crutches I looked for replacement feet. I found these and the security they give is so much better. Wider feet and anti slip soles give me confidence with their wider ‘footprint’ as they flex with each step so as to have the feet always properly planted on the ground whilst walking. I can’t recommend them enough!

Bought for my mum as she recently broke her knee. She normally walks with a stick anyway but didn't look so stable on the crutches as she doesn't have the strength to use them as intended. I bought these to help her feel safer, relieve pressure on her arms and wrists and also give me peace of mind as the crutches were very wobbly. They did the job...the crutches couldn't be used in a way that people "swing" on them but thats exactly what we needed. She can now put weight on each crutch individually with every step and feel steady and stable.

Très stable

I was born with CP, and use forearm crutches to ambulate. I injured my knee and had surgery this summer. Because my mobility and balance were really imapacted, I started looking for a tip that would hopefully offer more in the way of traction and support on ice, snow, and wet floors. I found it in the KMINA tips. It is now March, and Im happy to report that I didn't go down one time during bad surface conditions. With conventional tips, I was destined to take two to three spills year. I will say that there were a few instances when my crutches would begin to slide on ice, but the wide base and traction design of the KMINA's kept me from falling. Motoring along on floors wet from melting snowwas not an issue. I did not even begin to slip once. Whereas before, I would have to catch myself several times over the course of a winter. Id also like to point out KIMINA tips are long lasting. Ive been using the same pair for several months, and they are hardly worn. The tips I used to rely on before, might make it a week before they began to split and tear at the edges. The one thing to keep in mind with the KIMINA's is that the wide base design with the tapered edges can sometimes get caught under door edges as you are coming through. In my opinion however, this a minor concern in the context of this product's overall high level of quality, performance, and reliability. $20 a pair is well worth the price! Thank you KAMINA!

Ich nutze diese XXL Gummifüße mit den Kohlefaser 19 mm Unterarmgehstützen von Kmina. Die alleine sind aufgrund vieler guter Eigenschaften ein Gedicht, aber das nur am Rande. Nach monatelanger Nutzung waren die mitgelieferten Gummifüße verschlissen. Die flink nachbestellten (noch kleineren) Füße Modell 4 Stück für 'nen Zehner waren noch schneller am Ende. Mit den Originalen sowie noch mehr mit den Ersatzfüßen ist man doch auf rutschigem Untergrund (Badezimmer, feuchte Holzplanken, fiese Steinwege bei Regen) gerne mal weggerutscht, was regelmäßig die ungewollte Vollbelastung des zu schonenden Fußes zur Folge hat. Im Besten Fall folgt dann ein kurzer Schreck, mit weniger Glück eine Überbelastung mit neuer Schwellung oder gar eine Vollbremsung mit der Nase. Mit diesen neuen und wirklich großen Füßen ist der Grip deutlich besser. Das liegt meines Erachtens weniger an der großen Fläche sondern an der Biegung des Gummis im Randbereiche, sodass ein Teil immer waagerecht mit dem Untergrund verbunden ist. Je nach Untergrund macht natürlich auch das deutliche Profil einen Unterschied gegenüber den fast profillosen Beipackfüßen. Weiterer Vorteil ist der wesentlich verbesserte Schutz gegen ein Dursacken der gesamten Krücke, typischerweise auf Gullideckeln, Gitterrosten oder grobem Kopfsteinpflaster. Last but not least: Die Grundfläche ist so groß, dass die Krücken auf geradem Untergrund selbstständig auf der Stelle stehen können sprich ohne sie anzulehnen! Wer die eigenen zum 500. Mal vom Boden aufheben durfte, weiß das vermutlich ähnlich zu schätzen wie ich. Diese Füße sind natürlich etwas schwerer als die AOK Werksausführung, es fällt aber nach drei Schritten nicht mehr auf. Wem das alles zu schwer ist dem sei nochmal wärmstens die Kmina Kohlefaser Stütze empfohlen. Über das doch etwas adipöse Gummidesign macht sich nur der Gedanken, der noch nie Krücken gebraucht hat. Gerade in der dunklen und nassen Jahreszeit sind diese Krücken-Bigfoots wenigstens für geschundene Langzeitnutzer Pflicht. Wer sich auf weichen Naturböden wie Sand halbwegs aufrecht bewegen will, kommt ebenfalls kaum darum herum. Über den Verschleiß lässt sich noch keine Aussage treffen aber die schiere Menge an verbautem Gummi macht eine vernünftige Nutzung bis zum Jüngsten Tag mehr als wahrscheinlich. Klare Kaufempfehlung!
