Second Gear

TOP 5 REASONS TO SHOP SECOND GEAR ⛰️❤️

Countdown style... 😎 

#5: We believe great gear deserves a second chance.

Every jacket, pack, paddle, and pair of boots has stories left to tell. Keeping gear in use means less waste, more adventures, and a little extra love for the planet. 🌎

--

#4: Your old gear can fund your next adventure.

Whether your kids outgrew it, you're looking to upgrade, or it's just collecting dust, consignment helps turn unused gear, apparel and footwear into extra cash while helping someone else get out on their next adventure! 🏕️

--

#3: The deals have deals. 😂

Every month, consignment items get marked down even further on the 1st -- then stack on top of that any 'Deals of the Week' or 'Flash Sales' and you could be saving up to 70% off already discounted gear!! 

Sometimes we watch people walk out with armfuls of amazing finds and wonder...did we just pay them to shop here? 💸

--

#2: We're a gear shop, but people are the best part. ❤️

Whether you're planning an epic thru-hike, a family camping trip, your very first paddle, or just need a warm jacket for a mountain evening, we genuinely love helping people get outside.

No adventure is too big. No adventure is too small.

Our goal is simple: make sure everyone feels welcome, comfortable, and excited about wherever they're headed next.

Even if it's just to go grocery shopping at Earth Fare next door... 🥰

--

And #1: The magic is real. ✨

If you've never been to Second Gear, it's hard to explain.

One minute you're "just looking."

The next minute you've found the exact piece of gear you've wanted for years, somehow in your size, somehow in great condition, and somehow at a price that makes you do a double take.

It happens every day.

So if you've never visited us before, this is your sign.

Come say hello. Meet the team. Browse the racks. Hunt for treasure.

Who knows? Your next favorite piece of gear might already be here waiting for you.
