How long do plastic rolling marshmallow tips last? (particularly when used on rough terrain) (self.Blind)

It definitely depends on how much it is used, and what material the terrain is. Roads mostly made of dirt may not wear as much as concrete sidewalks.
I had a client who was going to college that would walk everywhere, and she would wear through a cane tip in about 6 months. But that is with city sidewalks.

Mine tend to last about a year. The winter seems to be a hardest on my cane tip, with all the salt and grit on the sidewalks. I haven’t gone out as much since the pandemic started, so my current tip has lasted about two years.

You can order just the tips, depending on who makes your cane.

Like concrete / pot holed areas? Mine last about 1-2 months, depending on much gravel there was from construction every other week
