Review: Long lasting, high traction, large footprint. - Definitely worth it for the $40. It’s made of harder rubber, has a flexible “ankle joint“ and a wide footprint. I’ve had my most recent set for almost a year, and they’re only just now getting around to the point where they’re about to wear out. BTW, this is after daily use. Pros: long lasting, large footprint, flexible “ankle joint“. CONS: tends to be very tight, trying to fit on a standard crutch shaft. Might require either a little Vaseline or some elbow grease.
Review: The BEST crutch tips you'll buy - I've been buying Fetterman crutch tips for close to 20 years now. They're simply the most comfortable, grippiest, and longest lasting tip you'll find. I've been walking on crutches for the overwhelming majority of my life (35+ years). I bought titanium Fetterman LiteStix crutches back in 2005 and have been more than satisfied with them, the tips, and the handles. I'm very active (for being physically disabled and on crutches), work a full time retail/healthcare job, and hike occasionally - A set of these tips lasts me about a year and half. The cheap crutch tips you buy from a drug store would last me about 6 weeks. I've used both the Tornado tips and the Performance GT tips; I prefer the Tornado as they're smaller and lighter which I find suits my walking and activity better. I'm glad Fetterman is now selling these on desertcart so more people can see and experience them. They're more expensive than the competition but worth the price in every way possible.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used in the bedroom?**
A: For what purpose? I walk into and out of my bedroom with these all the time. Anything else, you’ll have to judge for yourself.

**Q: does this have a 7/8 inch opening**
A: I am using mine on a pair of Drive forearm style crutches, and the lower shaft is 7/8 inch. It took a little to force the tips on, but they did go on, and I have been walking on the same pair of Tornado tips since last fall. Oct. 2012 I think.

**Q: May i but just 1 tip? i'd like to buy only 1 tip... i  do not walk, but use one crutch when i transfer...**
A: I've never seen them sold as anything but as a pair here and on on Fetterman's website.  It sounds like you don't use your one crutch enough for the tip's durability to be an issue for you. Do you know anyone else who uses a cane the tip might fit? They fit 3/4 to 1 inch shafts, and while I'm not sure, I think that size may apply to many canes. If that works, you could go dutch on the purchase, or give the extra tip as a gift!

**Q: For customers who have used both the Performance and the Tornado which do you prefer?**
A: I have always had good luck with the Tornado gel crutch tips and they offer a great cushion for my joints as a permanent crutch user.  The performance tips are larger and heavier and are a bit overkill for me.  I am 5’7” and 145 lbs.  too so I don’t need the extra weight and endurance of the performance tips.  The Tornado Tips are perfect for me.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product!
*by M***N on January 20, 2026*

I bought these a couple years ago after years of buying other types of tips that wore out in 6 months or less. If they can last that long for me, they should be good for anyone. I just ordered a new pair
