Extra Wide Derby Walking Stick for Men 42"
Built for Bigger Hands
The Extra Wide Derby is exactly what it sounds like — a generously sized derby handle that fits larger hands like it was made for them. Because it was. Most walking sticks are designed around an average grip, which means if your hands run large, you're squeezing something that doesn't quite fit. Not this one. The wider handle spreads your grip naturally, eliminates pinch points, and makes every walk feel like the stick is an extension of your arm, not something you're wrestling with.
The dark Jambis-stained hardwood shaft has a warm, layered finish with natural grain patterns that make every stick slightly one-of-a-kind. At 42 inches, it's sized for taller men — roughly 5'10" and up. The polished brass collar adds a touch of class where the handle meets the shaft, and the durable rubber tip grips anything from hardwood floors to cobblestone. Imported from Germany, where precision craftsmanship isn't a marketing phrase — it's a centuries-old standard. Free shipping on orders over $50. Hassle-free 30-day returns. Veteran-owned Canes Galore — over 500 styles for men and women.
