Summer is here and folks are ready to get outside! With the new recommendations of social distancing, more people are trying out new-to-them outdoor activities than ever before. And a great way to try a new sport, is with used, more affordable gear. They can make sure they love it and then invest in upgrades and dial in their preferences.
If you've recently upgraded or you just have used gear collecting dust, we are here for you! You can sell your old gear and make money back for your next adventures! We make the process of selling used gear and apparel simple. No appointment necessary, just swing by anytime we are open. Currently Monday through Saturday, 9am-7pm. One of the consignment managers will talk you though the details and one quick piece of paperwork. If you have prices you hope to get back on an item, we will discuss it with you and do our best to get you the best return we can. We do keep our shop seasonally relevant so right now, we are only accepting summer related gear and apparel. Skis and boots will start rolling in around September 1st. Not too much longer winter lovers!
So bring in those old hiking boots, kayak you've got in storage, and the one out of five bikes we all have after years of living in Durango. Make someone's day with a great deal and save your time an energy by letting us do the work for you!
Look–we can’t deny that huge ski areas are popular for a reason. Mega ski resorts often have the most terrain, the newest lifts, the snazziest shuttles, the most interesting base villages, and the best dining and aprés options. They can also (sometimes) have the best snow.
But big ski areas can also be a big pain in the rear. Crowds, traffic, lift lines, parking hassles, wild hotel and meal prices, and jaw-dropping lift ticket rack rates can all conspire to make skiing seem a LOT less fun than it should be.
Winter snow may still cover the high country for another six months or more, but it’s never too early to learn about what’s new in mountain bike tech for 2025. Spring Break is right around the corner and whether it’s a trip to the desert you have planned, or you are dreaming about your perfect ride for this summer, now is the time to learn about what’s new for this year.
Not up for a new bike? Come spring,Durango Outdoor Exchange will have plenty ofused bikes to choose from–we just may have the perfect project bike for some of the tech you see listed below.
One of the main ways to determine running shoe type is by looking at sole thickness. The sole is what cushions and stabilizes you, and how much of it your shoes have goes a long way to predicting how comfortable the shoes will be.
But, more sole does not always equate to a better shoe, and the reason behind this is guided in part by what kind of runner you are.
With so many shoes offering varying levels of sole thickness, how do you know what’s best for you? Let’s look at the importance of sole thickness, how it impacts your running performance, and what to look for when choosingrunning shoes in Durango.
