Thumb Compasses – Fast and Efficient Navigation for Orienteering

Thumb compasses are a popular choice among orienteers who want to run at high speed without losing map contact. The compass is attached directly to the thumb, allowing you to quickly check your direction while holding the map in the same hand.

At Letro, you'll find a wide range of thumb compasses for orienteering – from simple beginner models to advanced competition compasses with fast needles, magnifiers, and ergonomic design. We offer models for both right-handed and left-handed users, so you can find a compass that matches your running style. If you're right-handed, the compass is usually worn on your left hand – and vice versa.

Our range includes well-known brands such as Silva, Str8, Kanpas, and Mästarn – all tested and trusted by orienteers at every level.
