Océan

Les Bâtons d'Alain are hiking and ski touring poles developed by the high mountain guide and Chamonix alpinist Alain DESEZ.

Highly versatile, they can be used just as well in summer for hiking, trekking or trail running, as in winter for your ski touring, snowshoeing or steep slope skiing outings.

The main asset of the Bâtons d'Alain is their long ergonomic grip (Gold Medal at the Concours Lépine in Paris in 2011). Thanks to this, your hands will always be well positioned, never in contact with the shaft, and with excellent support.

These one-piece poles, slightly flexible and equipped with a tungsten tip, ensure optimal energy transfer, and the absence of a strap is both comfortable and reassuring.

For your safety, reflective bands are placed on the poles to improve your visibility at night. 

Finally, 2 pairs of removable baskets (38mm at 5g / 85mm at 14g) are provided for your adventures on dry or snowy ground.


Available in many colours, and always as high-performing, you will surely find one you like.

Please note, the visual does not fully correspond to the product. The Océan pole exists with two shaft colours: black and aluminium. The colour purchased is random and cannot be chosen.
