The (Standing) Walking Stick

kevdia_balancing_stick_layout

A walking stick defeats the purpose if you’re constantly having to bend over to pick it up! Designed with this in mind, the KEVDIA stick is Michael Dimou’s take on the object that stands on its own so users need not worry about where to lean it.

Made using durable yet lightweight Kevlar-49 and lead at the bottom, it’s been tested to not only self-balance but to ensure that the center of gravity is at the lowest point of the stick. This results in more solid placement of the tip when walking, thereby enhancing stability and confidence in the user. Even if it’s dropped, it will pop back up, making it easier for the user to regain control and continue on whether they’re on a hike or the sidewalk.
