5 stars for this great local company, but 4 stars for this store, and really, only because while labeled an outlet, this is not much of one. They do have some refurbished goods, and perhaps at times there are many, but I only spied a couple on my visit. A very few items were on sale, and you got a free tee with a $100 purchase, but other than that, it was all full priced gear.
Now, what they make is high quality enough that I am happy to pay the standard price, however I'd done some research ahead of time, and the sleeping bag I was seeking was half price elsewhere. No matter, though, we were happy to check it out in person, along with their selection of hammocks, backpacks, cute pet camping supplies, and truly extensive variety of sleeping pads.
Of all the things to be most impressed by, they have some seriously excellent pillows! We bought very comfortable cushy inflatable pillows for backpacking, but for car camping, I would have nabbed the ingenious memory foam filled ones, featuring a protective case that flips around to a cozy fabric cover, all in one! We also got a nice compression sack.
The young man who assisted us was friendly and helpful, and happy to check their stock room for the specific sleeping bag I was interested in. Overall, a great experience, and I am pleased to support a local company that crafts such well and thoughtfully executed outdoor products. read more
