Our pick

In-Motion Pro Forearm Crutches

Thomas Fetterman Carbon Fiber Forearm Crutches

Thomas Fetterman

7.6/10 Fit Score

The pick when weight is your top priority. Carbon fiber makes these noticeably lighter than aluminum, which matters most to people on crutches all day, and they fold down to a compact 22 inches. The trade-off is a premium, made-to-order price.
