GT: May Gear Roundup
This month, we’re celebrating perfect weather and multi-sport mashups in which we indulge in climbing, hiking, biking, skiing, paddling, and camping all within the same glorious season. Summer is coming, and we're here for it.
Which means it’s time to sell your unneeded summer gear and stock up on a few new-to-you items that will make the season all the sweeter. And bonus did you know we have a
Rewards program? Every time you buy or sell on
Geartrade you earn rewards.
Waders and boots: Go fish.
Quality waders and comfortable fishing boots make a good fishing day great. And if you have any mountain rivers or streams on your summer trip agenda (and don’t we all), you’ll want a good pair of lightweight, breathable, well-fit waders and a set of sturdy boots.

Rain jackets: Get Wet
Whether you’re venturing out in prime drizzle season or want to be prepared for sudden squalls this summer, a good rain jacket is essential for hiking and trail running. You may have seen our recent
Rain Jacket Buyer’s Guide, which is a great resource for help deciding what you need and deciphering product descriptions. Whether you want something light and packable or full-on bomber, you can find it here for a fraction of retail.

Bike parts and accessories: Get rolling.
Little improvements go a long way when you’re covering miles on your bike. Something as simple as a better bottle cage, easy-to-use car rack, lighter components, or comfier shoes can be a game-changer. Because when everything works, you can go farther, go harder, and go more often.

One of our favorite little-known secrets is that Geartrade typically has a whole slew of sunglasses for sale, and you can filter by brand to view go-to options you’re likely to love. Now’s the perfect time to snag a killer pair of casual shades, running or biking sunglasses, or a vintage-style statement piece. It’s summer. It’s sunny. Go crush it.

The snow’s melting up high, and the whitewater is flowing. It’s high time for river trips and water play. As you run through your gear checklists and get your permit ducks in a row, think about what would make your paddling adventures easier. Perhaps it’s time for a new rack for your boat, or you could use a new dry bag or paddle.
We’ve got plenty of UnNew gear perfectly suited for our paddler friends, ranging from actual boats to racks, PFDs, paddles, river sandals, and the extras that make river life better, like proper camp kitchens and comfy tents.

When you’re done browsing, go clean out your gear closet and start selling. May the circle of gear life continue.
