An extremely popular contemporary walking stick, often bought as a present or as an accessory for a particular outfit. The pattern is applied to both the shaft and the handle, and the Chelsea cane is fitted with a neat brass collar and a rubber ferrule. Ferrule diameter 16mm. The petite handle is easily held by people with smaller hands. The strong and lightweight aluminium shaft can be extended in 2.5cm increments from 67cm to 90cm (approximately 26"-35.5").
Measuring your Walking Stick:
Please note that this information is a guide only. Consult your doctor or physiotherapist if you require specific advice on this matter.
The walking stick user should stand upright, in the type of shoes they usually wear, with their arms hanging naturally by their sides.
Another person should turn the walking stick upside down, so that the top of the handle is resting on the floor.
Positioning the stick next to the user, make a small mark on the shaft of the stick level with the bump at the bottom of the wrist bone. Using a small saw, cut the stick at this point. This will mean that the user's arm will be slightly bent when they hold the stick.
