Fizan COMPACT water green — international reference, Article 100-476 review

Evidence-based international reference; not a hands-on test. Fizan’s dated English Trekking/Hiking collection shows a card called “COMPACT ocean blue,” but its linked route, /product-page/compact-blue, opens a page titled “COMPACT water green” with Article 100-476. The Summer 2026 catalogue also calls 100.476 “COMPACT Water green.” This review follows the exact linked page and catalogue identity while keeping the collection-card wording visible as a conflict, not silently correcting it. The exact page is a manufacturer reference, not a verified U.S. package.

What the colour and article records do—and do not—establish

The article number is more useful than the route slug here: the product page and catalogue agree on 100-476 / Water green, while the observed card says ocean blue. The manufacturer image associated with the exact page shows teal-to-aqua and black shafts, which is consistent with the page presentation, but an image cannot settle a naming or seller-identity dispute. It identifies the appearance shown on that page only.

There is a closely corresponding U.S. seller option: Kaviso’s separate Compact 3 listing names “Compact 3 / Water Green / EVA Foam” and assigns that option a seller SKU. It does not publish Fizan Article 100-476 against that SKU. The model, finish wording and handle label make this a meaningful lead, but they do not prove that a U.S. seller unit or package is the exact international article. For buying, use the distinct seller-specific Fizan Compact 3 EVA Foam assessment; it preserves the U.S. selector facts without transferring the Article 100-476 claims. This page remains a non-buying international reference rather than a second entry in the finder.

A three-section telescoping design with a stated upper endpoint

The exact Fizan page describes three sections measuring 17, 16 and 14 mm, a closed length of 59 cm and an open length of 132 cm. The catalogue associates Article 100.476 with 7001 aluminum and the same 59–132 cm family span. The safe reading for fit is the published 132 cm upper endpoint; the source calls 59 cm “closed,” not a confirmed minimum walking setting. A shopper who needs a particular pole height should check the actual adjustment instructions and fit range rather than treat the storage measurement as the lower adjustment stop.

The page names Fizan’s internal Flexy expander system. That identifies a telescoping adjustment arrangement, but this page does not explain a full setup procedure or classify the lock as an external lever, twist lock or folding button. A generic manual or another Compact variant is not a substitute for model-specific instructions. For someone selecting by lock style, this reference leaves the category unknown instead of assuming that every internal expander should be labelled a twist lock.

Grip, strap, tips and baskets

The manufacturer describes an EVA grip and a polyester strap. Those are material labels, not evidence of warmth, comfort, wet-hand security or a particular hand fit. The page says that 35 mm and 50 mm baskets and protective tip caps are supplied, and the catalogue identifies a carbide tip. Neither source calls those basket sizes snow baskets, so a required snow-basket feature remains unconfirmed. The manufacturer page’s components also do not establish which exact pieces would be included in a U.S. retailer’s package.

The linked product page shows two poles in its photograph. That is appearance context, not proof that a retailer ships a pair, or that it ships a pole bag, both basket sizes, caps or any other accessory. Confirm the selected seller SKU and actual included list before relying on package contents.

Weight and comparisons

Fizan’s page prints 158 grams and uses a “lightest” promotional phrase. The 2026 catalogue prints 158 gr, but neither document states whether that figure is per pole, per pair or another basis. It therefore cannot be compared fairly with a listing that explicitly gives a per-pole weight. The superlative is not an independently verified comparison, and this assessment does not repeat it as a performance result.

The catalogue places COMPACT articles 100.472 Green, 100.473 Blue, 100.474 Orange and 100.476 Water green in the same specification grid. It gives the same shaft material, adjustment span, section diameters, raw weight, grip/strap description, Flexy system and basket sizes for that family. The observed evidence supports a finish/article distinction here, not a demonstrated change in fit, mechanism or performance between these colours. It does not establish whether a later seller bundle, handle or production run differs.

Who should use this reference?

It is useful when checking what Fizan’s international source calls Article 100-476, or when comparing an EVA-grip, three-section telescoping Compact configuration with a 132 cm published upper endpoint and 59 cm closed dimension. It is not a personal recommendation, a U.S. availability claim or a substitute for the U.S. selector assessment. The card says “ocean blue”; the linked product page and Summer 2026 catalogue say “water green.” Both observations remain in the record.

Before buying a similarly named seller option, check the exact color/handle selection, SKU, adjustment instructions, packed dimension and included basket/package list. If a seller needs to confirm whether its “Water Green” item is manufacturer Article 100-476, ask for the article or barcode; color similarity alone is not a code crosswalk. The original Fizan product page and Summer 2026 catalogue support the international identity and specifications cited above. No price, stock status, customer experience or hands-on result is asserted.
