When gearing up for any adventure you can either buy new or used gear, but which is better? Well there are pros and cons to both.

With new gear you know the history which can give you peace of mind when it comes to things like climbing gear. When you buy new you are also the only person to use the gear so you’ll get the maximum life out of the product. But you’ll have to fork over the money for it.

How about used gear? Well first off you’ll get a deal! And you’ll keep perfectly usable gear out of the landfills. Lots of people get rid of their used skis, jackets, etc Just so they can buy the newest skis, jackets, etc. The gear they get rid often has a lot of life in it, which is perfect for people like you reading this.

Let’s take a look at some numbers. For the hikers out there who use poles were selling a pair of black Dimond distance z poles for $75, while they go for $140 new. That’s more than 45% OFF!! For just buying it 

When you’re looking to get some gear take a look and see if you can find a used option to save some money and help out the environment a little bit.
