Frequently asked questions
About the gear
-
Quality outdoor brands design their pieces to last for years (sometimes decades). Technical fabrics, reinforced stitching, and thoughtful construction don’t disappear after one owner. Buying secondhand keeps great pieces in circulation, reduces waste, and makes getting outside feel more within reach. I love to imagine the life pieces lived before it made it into my collection.
I also carefully inspect each piece for performance and comfort. If it’s at the end of its life, it doesn’t make it into the shop.
-
Every piece is carefully reviewed before it joins the shop. I look for “like new” pieces with no stains, holes, or functionality issues. If it doesn’t meet my standards for comfort, quality, and uniqueness, it often doesn’t make the cut.
If a piece is well-loved or needed repair, that will always be reflected in the product description, price, and photos.
-
Yes. Every item is inspected and cleaned before it reaches you. If an item needed repair, I’ll always note it in the product description.
All pieces are thoughtfully chosen, refreshed, and ready for its next chapter.
Orders + Shipping
-
Orders typically ship within 2-4 business days. You’ll receive tracking information as soon as it’s on the way.
-
Due to the unique nature of secondhand inventory, all items are final sale. We encourage you to review measurements and condition notes carefully before purchasing.
If your item arrives damaged or not as described, please reach out so I can make it right.
-
New pieces are added about once a month. Because every item is one-of-a-kind, once it’s gone, it’s gone.
If you’d like first access to new arrivals, joining our email list is the best way to stay in the loop.
