149. i miss sparklin’: a cane update

hi hello hey, we’re making our canes accessories now.

We’ve done many an episode about mobility tools, but it’s been two years since we last talked canes, when Case got her all-pink cane and Cass got a No-Jab cane. We’re back—and thanks to our friends at Ambutech, we’re here to debut canes for all seasons, including matching beautiful, bedazzled canes and a cane setup specifically made for the outdoorsy!

Besides showing off our new additions, we take our canes for a stroll down memory lane to review the many canes of our lives, from our very first canes to the cane tips that have definitely seen better days.

Thanks again to Ambutech for our new canes! If you’re interested in a bespoke cane of your own, email them at orders@ambutech.com and tell them Rare with Flair sent you!

show notes

• Cass’ No-Jab cane with the red leather grip
• Case’s graphite cane — you can select a grip color like pink and tape colors for some added flair
• Want to recreate Cass’ hiking cane? Here’s what you’ll need:
  • Adult Fiberglass cane — you can select the tape colors for each section (Cass picked green)
  • Standard marshmallow tip (non-rolling)
  • Support cane tip — this slips over the standard marshmallow tip
  • Flip up ice spike attachment — for extra grip in the ground
