My father has gone through many cane tips over the years, both for his walking cane and walker. He's tried all the fancy lookjing, expensive ones and was never really happy with the width or durability of the cane tips. I figured I'd try Amazon to see if I could find something super wide and durable and the picture attached to this listing caught my attention so I bought him a few. The bottom line is that he was thrilled. He loves the width and I would say that the rubber is highly durable by the look and feel of it. I will probably be ordering several more of these.
