Tornado Rain Cane & Crutch Tips, Fits Shafts of 3/4 to 1 Inch, Black, Pair

These are my favorite crutch tip. I have used them for 15+ years and keep returning as they wear out (eventually the rain top wears thin, usually every two years for me). I am disabled from a car accident and have used regular (after surgeries) or forearm crutches (mostly) since then. I have used these on all my crutches and am very happy with the cushioning, slip resistance, and durability. My arms and shoulders love having less jarring to deal with (solid tips are tough on them as there is no cushioning). I saw one review that said theirs came apart but that has not been my experience at all and my crutches go everywhere -- sand, rocks, mud, rain, snow, trails, asphalt, old lava plains, etc. I could get longer wear without the rain tip but I need that. If you are dealing with snow & ice then get yourself some ice tips but other than that I consider these all terrain. I could not be happier with these. They are more expensive but worth the cost. The tornado tip is also a great invention! Having crutches tips that move with you is a game changer. They flex slightly as you move through your stride and give a more secure feel (your crutch won’t slide as some rubber tips do) if that makes sense. These have been all over the world with me as I do not let my disability stop me from traveling and exploring. These tips help in that regard as they feel more secure. I encourage you to give them a try.

I had a skiing accident and ended up having knee surgery, as a result I was on crutches for about 13 weeks total. I bought these during the first week as I really hated the crutches I was on and wanted to improve them however I could.In addition to these crutch tips I bought 'Crutcheze pad, grip cover and bag'.Anyway, these tips were such a good purchase! I'm up in Maine where it was super wet and snowy, these tips functioned admirably. They have way more contact with the ground so I feel much more stable when crutching around everywhere, and they absorb way more of the impact when moving so it's just way comfier.Overall I'd highly recommend purchasing these crutch tips, they are such an improvement over the basic ones that come with regular crutches. At $60 I know they look steep, I really pondered the purchase, but then again for 13 weeks it comes out to $4.6 per week! And these are easily worth $20 a week for the comfort alone!

Very good product.

If you have bad wrists or some autoimmune disease that makes your wrists pop out of place, don’t get this. While it does help with forearm crutch fatigue, I will say it does add more stress onto the wrists!!

The media could not be loaded. Tornado Tips have been my go-to crutch tips for years. Unfortunately, this pair came apart in one day. The non-slip pad doesn’t feel like the pads on my others version that gradually wore down over months. This non-slip pad is actually smooth and it just came right off after barely using them for one day. The second pad is also loose. Since I threw my old tips away, I can’t even send these back.

I've been on crutches for 21 years. I've went through way too many crutch tips to count... until I bought these. I actually bought them in May 2020. I also got the matching hand grips and underarm pads at the same time. I am just now getting to the point that I need new tips. Yes, they've lasted for over five years. I was going through a new set of tips every six months and had many slips and falls on wet floors. With the Fetterman tips I have fallen ONE time. As long as Fetterman makes tips I'll never buy another brand. Yes, they are expensive. But compare this price to paying $10 every six months and falling all the time. I know where my money is going.

Been using Fetterman's Tornado gel rain crutch tips for years! Makes my crutches more stable, almost non-slip! (grit, paper, debris, oil on hard surface will make even non handicapped slip) And they are much longer lasting than the drugstore brands! Can't imagine using any other tips! Absolutely worth the price for comfort, stability and not needing to replace tips every few weeks! (I get about 18 months of use. Daily 1-4 miles on city sidewalks plus around home.)

I use this with the Nova heavy duty cane. While both are heavier than a standard cane and tip, it offers me stability and comfort with walking and using staircases The bottom of the tip shows hardly any wear after 3 months. In the rain and slushy surfaces, it is pretty slip resistant. At over $60 for 2 tips, it costs more than most tips. But if it saves me from a fall, then it's worth it. Also Made in the USA!
