Used Gear

You know the drill: Melting snow, sloppy trails, and that in-between season that can make a mess of your boots, your bike, and your Subaru.

But this year? It’s a little different. A drier-than-usual winter and spring means mud season isn’t quite living up to its name this year, and that opens a new set of opportunities to get outside earlier than expected.

Here’s how to make the most of it with help fromDurango Outdoor Exchange.

Durango Outdoor Exchange makes it easy to bring in your gear and let us sell it for you. Here’s your guide to decluttering your outdoor gear the smart way.

It happens to all of us–we accumulate a few too many pairs of skis, a bike saddle we took off an old steed but never found another use for, pants we **might**have, um, outgrown, and shoes we loved but just never fit right.

It’s nice to accumulate old gear in closets and sheds, but it’s nicer to sell it. Much nicer.

Selling your used gear to Durango Outdoor Exchange is a great way to pass on the good vibes and build store credit that you can use for upgrading your quiver(s). Best of all, selling your used outdoor gear is a super chill and easy experience. Read on to learn how.
