Buckingham steel tree and pole climbers are tried and tested professional tools. With over 100 years experience manufacturing gaffs, they have consistently delivered professional, high quality climbers. You can rely on a pair of Buckingham spurs season after season. These climbers fit the widest range of pads and straps, have replaceable gaffs, and the gaffs can be sharpened. Buckingham steel climbers are a very popular choice with beginning tree climbers and experienced professionals alike for their affordability, durability and strength.
In 2011 Buckingham changed their replaceable gaff design to the “dowel & screw” gaffs. You’ll find both the new style gaffs as well as gaffs for older models on our replacement spur gaffs page.
Add your own straps and start climbing in Buckingham steel replaceable gaffs spurs. Will work with any spur pad WesSpur sells, and universal straps.
Offset gaff and contoured shank. Adjustable from 16" to 18 3/4" in height.
‘T’ pads provide expanded padding around the shin and are much more comfortable.
Super Climber pads spread the climber's weight over the greatest surface area, for extra comfort and support.
Buckingham spurs with Cast Aluminum pads are an excellent investment in top of the line comfort. Cast pads are solid aluminum and won't wear out like leather. Regular width pads measure about 5” at the widest point (inside), narrow pads measure about 4 1/4” at the widest point. (Most people wear Regular width.)
Foam padding replacements available here.
Big Buck pads combine lots of padding with a steel insert to keep the pad rigid and the shank from digging into your leg. Expanded surface area takes two straps for a secure fit.
Expanded coverage of the Big Buck pads, plus the perfect fit of the Cushion Wraps. Drilex-lined to wick sweat away.
Soft Cushion Wrap pads have 3/4" thick foam and a 4" wide Velcro cinch strap for extra padding and a perfect fit that is snugger than regular straps.
Steel Cushion Wrap pads are top of the line climbing pads. They have the same wide Velcro strap cinch strap as , and the steel insert provides rigidity and protects the leg from the spur shank.

Stiff wrap pads are an example of an inexpensive rigid pad. Steel insert in the leather prevents the spur shank from gouging the leg and keeps the pad from deforming.
“L” pads provide the most basic padding and are lightweight and affordable.
