We’re thrilled to team up with Lake Tahoe–based artist Bryn Merrell to bring her colorful mountain-inspired art to the slopes. A self-taught creator known for her whimsical, joyful illustrations, Bryn captures the spirit of adventure with a playful touch that now lives on your ski pole straps.

It’s time to switch up your ski pole strap game. Designed to add both fun and function, Mtn Straps make an instant icebreaker on the lift and keep your poles secure lap after lap. The pattern may be called “Darkside,” but with these on your poles, you’ll definitely be riding the bright side.

Our straps transform a basic piece of gear into a mobile canvas, while remaining fully functional on cold, stormy days. They keep their shape for easy entry with gloves or mittens, and the distinctive design means you will spot your poles instantly in a crowded rack when you step out from lunch or après. Each pair is built to be both beautiful and hard-wearing, ready for everything from early-season groomers to spring slush laps.

For fit, the straps use a 1/2 inch insertion section that slides into most standard alpine pole grips, along with a 3/16 inch grommet opening designed to accept your existing grip screw or pin. They are a suitable replacement for many (but not all) Scott, Rossignol, K2, Kerma, Jski, Grass Sticks, and Komperdell poles. They work best when you follow the step-by-step strap replacement instructions provided on our site.

Price is per pair.
