These tips work well on a variety of surfaces, indoors and out. If you have a Gitzo pod, as I do (3540), you might need an extra set of these, because they show an amazing propensity to remove themselves in the field. For outdoors use, the fine adjustability afforded by the thread is completely unnecessary, so you could just use a medium-weight thread locking compound and not have to carry spares. I used the new tripod for a month in the field, and lost a tip 4 times! I only recovered a tip twice, so I ended the trip with two tips missing, and the screw holes full of mud. I'll buy another set, but lock-tite the threads.

One of mine is at the bottom of a stream near Crested Butte, Colorado. I wish they didn't loosen up, but they seem to. I now check them regularly for loosening, and have the two replacement feet left to rely on just in case. The gitzo tripod is incredible....but I'd like to see a longer screw shank on the rubber feet. I'm just glad they have replacements at a decent price.

Comments about Gitzo Set of 3 Replacement Rubber Leg-Tips:
Not that I want to buy them again....but I lost one off my $700.00 Gitzo tripod after just one outing. I Googled this and it seems to be a widespread problem with Gitzo tripod feet. What happens is, if you carry the tripod over your shoulder and one of the feet starts contacting another object a certain way, the foot will just start coming unscrewed until it falls off. The lesson learned is, "tighten the feet as much as you can before you head out". I also might check into some rubber O-rings to see if that might solve the problem-- or maybe even wrapping the threads with some teflon plumbers tape.

Comments about Gitzo Set of 3 Replacement Rubber Leg-Tips:
Thre replacement rubber tips are smaller than the original ones. So you need to replace all three even if you lost just one. I applied some LocTite to these new ones so that I will never lose them again. I wish Gitzo would make the exact replacement for all their tripods.

Comments about Gitzo Set of 3 Replacement Rubber Leg-Tips:
As others have mentioned, well built replacement feet for an otherwise excellent tripod.
Why they randomly screw themselves out rendering your tripod mostly useless and then require you to spend a bunch on new feet is truly puzzling.
This set is getting Loctite applied.

I am giving it three stars because they are sold in numbers of threes, also the manufacturer who sells a 500 USD tripod engineered to perfection cannot design a rubber let tip which does not fall off...

Comments about Gitzo Set of 3 Replacement Rubber Leg-Tips:
It's a replacement part ... what's to say. I chose these over the removable/spike type when my cat lost one of the original when I had another accessory on the tripod because others had problems with the rubber getting lose and coming off the spike version.

I made the critical mistake of not making sure my leg tips were screwed on tight from the factory and lost one pretty much first time out. Nice to know the replacements are so easily available.

Comments about Gitzo Set of 3 Replacement Rubber Leg-Tips:
It's very easy to lose these things when out shooting in mud and such. The replacements work just fine. They're a little pricey, but the fact that they come in packs of three is good because, well, I won't be surprised if I lose another one.

Surprised to find I lost a tip!
However, these replacements do the job.
Work well with the Gitzo 2530.

Comments about Gitzo Set of 3 Replacement Rubber Leg-Tips:
I only lost one foot, but I didn't mind having to buy a pack of 3 - now I have spares in case anything happens to the others. These exactly matched the existing feet on my Gitzo 3541.
