@theadventureaddicts: My heart is racing sharing this right now!! ⛺️🏔️✨🎒💕 @the gear project For years we have wondered why something like this doesn’t already exist. Getting outside has never been more expensive. And for years we have seen how the cost of getting high quality gear creates a huge barrier to entry to enjoying the outdoors. Used gear and clothing have been such a huge part of our journey to get outside and start all of these hobbies, and many of our favorite pieces of gear and clothing we own, we have purchased used. But, while we live in a mountain town with tons of used gear in thrift and consignment stores, most of the US doesn’t get the same access. Meanwhile, garages, closets, and gear rooms across the country are filled with equipment that still has years of adventure left in it. Outdoor gear is built to last, but SO many packs, shoes, jackets, pants, and tents sit in garages, unused, because gear got upgraded, goals changed, or time got away, and there isn’t an easy way to sell them. Being in this space for years, we have firsthand seen how the cost of quality gear is keeping you from getting outside. And we just found ourselves asking: Where does all of that unused gear go? Wouldn’t it be amazing if everyone had access to used gear like we have in our mountain town? What if there was a place where everyone could sell their old gear when their goals change or they are ready to upgrade? What if they could then use that money to fund their next adventure? We believe SO STRONGLY that everyone should have access to quality gear, regardless of budget. So, we built The Gear Project: An online peer-to-peer marketplace where adventurers can buy and sell pre-loved gear. A platform to connect adventurers who have gear they no longer use with people looking to start. A community where the outdoors become more accessible, more sustainable, and more inclusive for everyone. I have truly never felt more aligned with anything in our lives, and I am so so so excited to share what we have built for you. This has been a passion project for the last year, and I hope that we have created something that you feel is going to be a really valuable resource for getting outdoors. I feel I could keep talking about this for so many paragraphs, but I will leave it here for now because I have SO much to share in the coming weeks!! Everything you need for your next adventure likely already exists, and we hope you find it on The Gear Project. Launching September 7th. (Start gathering your gear though… we will be looking for sellers very soon :) ) #camping #usedgear #outdoorgear #backpacking #hikinggear
