Buying poles in porto

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
We purchased perfectly fine poles at a good price at the Decathlon in Porto last year. We thanked them for their service and donated them to the Pilgrim House in Santiago.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Welcome to the forum, @Eddiecanuck!

No problem with the question, and we are glad to have you ask on the forum. I'll just take advantage of the occasion to remind people how the Search function does work quite well, at least for some questions...

Searching for "pole porto" quickly gave me this thread.

Searching for "staff sjpp" was a bit trickier, but "poles sjpp" identified this thread. The first reply has a link to one shop in SJPP and contact information to a second shop, and you can then make a specific request to them. But maybe someone with recent personal experience will be able to comment on the supply of staffs, rather than sticks/poles.
 
Trecking poles here (Dallas, Texas) at REI run 50-100+ USD. How much do they go for at Decathalon in Porto?

The 6 euros ones do they fold down to fit into a pack? I am flying into Milan to do part of the VF and hope to find some poles that fit into my pack.
