Navigating mobility challenges doesn’t mean you have to blend into the background. With the Klassiker Forearm Crutches, you can elevate your stride—if you’ll pardon the pun. These German-engineered forearm crutches blend form, function, and flair, making them both a reliable walking aid and a stylish accessory.
What Makes Klassiker Unique?
1. Lightweight, yet robust design
Constructed from high-quality aluminum, each crutch pair supports up to 140 kg (≈ 310 lb), while tipping the scales at only 1200 g per pair. This makes them easy to manoeuvre without compromising on strength.
2. Tailored to your taste
Customization shines with these crutches. Choose between silver-anodized tubes or vibrant colour finishes. Six handle designs are available, ranging from comfy ergogrip to sleek soft-grip options, letting you personalize your crutches to suit both aesthetic and ergonomic preferences.
3. Smart, adjustable features
Height adjustment is a breeze with a 9‑way clip system (76–96 cm from handle to floor), ensuring an ideal, custom fit. With a 23 cm spread between arm cuff and handle, you’ll maintain a natural, relaxed posture.
4. Built for everyday life
Arm cuffs are crafted from sturdy, glass‑fiber reinforced plastic, paired with natural rubber tips featuring metal inserts for excellent grip. Reflectors—on both front and back—add safety during low-light conditions.
5. Simple maintenance
Replacement parts like rubber capsules (16 mm or 19 mm) are easily sourced, ensuring your Klassiker can stay in top condition for years.
