Take Your Walk Up a Notch

A mark of pride and distinction

If you were a European gentleman roughly 200 years ago, you’d never be seen in public without your walking stick. A marker of class and distinction, this fashionable accessory could also serve as a self-defense weapon in case you had a run-in with a street ruffian.

American presidents have often carried canes and received them as gifts. Our favorite bit of walking stick lore concerns tippling canes, which concealed hollowed-out compartments where flasks or vials of liquor could be stored; there’s no doubt these canes were especially popular during Prohibition.

Times may have changed, but some things are timeless. Like our Nemo Walking Stick, a handsome item that’s sure to burnish your reputation as a man of merit. Crafted from eucalyptus — a wood that’s both very strong and resistant to the elements — and engraved brass, the Nemo Walking Stick features a blue gemstone surrounded by white mother-of-pearl. Don’t you owe it to yourself to walk with pride?
