Every nature lover has, at some point, outdoor clothing and gear they once loved but no longer use — maybe a tent, climbing shoes, or a hiking backpack.
These items often stay in the closet, but in reality, they can still be useful.
Based on this idea, we created the “Bring & Sell” showcase — a place where anyone can bring their unused clothing and mountaineering gear to sell. This showcase is aimed at both protecting nature and bringing our outdoor community together.
The Essence of the "Bring & Sell" Idea
"Bring & Sell" is a simple and useful model: you bring the outdoor item you no longer use, we check it, evaluate it, and put it up for sale in our store.
When the item sells, a portion of the sale amount is returned to you, and the rest remains as the store's service fee.
This system is known worldwide as a consignment store or used gear exchange. Hundreds of outdoor stores in the USA, Europe, and Japan use this model. Their goal is not just second-hand sales but to create a culture of resource optimization and environmental responsibility.
Why is this system important?
Every year, thousands of tons of outdoor clothing and gear end up as waste worldwide. Yet, many of these products can still be used for years.
Our "Bring & Sell" showcase offers a small but real solution to this problem.
This initiative is based on three core values:
-
Sustainability – by circulating lightly used items again, waste is reduced.
-
Community – brings outdoor enthusiasts together and strengthens a culture of sharing.
-
Economic Value – unused gear finds a new owner, and you earn extra income.
How does "Bring & Sell" work?
Bring: Bring your unused but functional clothing and gear to our store.
Evaluate: We assess the item's condition and market value together. Key factors are brand, level of use, and overall condition.
Put on Sale: The item is cleaned, tagged, and placed in our "Bring & Sell" showcase. It is also shared on our social media and website to reach more people.
Earn: When the item sells, a portion of the sale goes to you. This way, your unused gear generates income and benefits a new owner.
What can you bring?
The "Bring & Sell" showcase accepts only outdoor and mountaineering-related items.
Accepted items include:
-
Mountaineering and trekking clothing (jackets, pants, fleece, etc.)
-
Hiking and climbing shoes
-
Tents, sleeping bags, hiking backpacks
-
Climbing and camping gear
-
Outdoor accessories (headlamps, heaters, cookware sets, trekking poles, etc.)
Not Accepted:
-
Damaged, torn, or non-functional items
-
Safety-risk items (belts, carabiners, etc.) – must be in fully safe condition
How is the profit from sales divided?
A portion of the sale goes to the store as a service fee, and the remaining amount is paid to the item owner.
The percentage depends on the type and price of the item.
For example:
-
80–90% – paid to the item owner
-
20–10% – store’s showcase, sales, and service fee

In Conclusion
The "Bring & Sell" showcase is not just a sales point – it is a sharing hub for the outdoor community.
Every piece of gear carries a story, and that story should not end.
If you own outdoor gear that you no longer use but is still functional – bring it and let it take its place in the showcase.
Together, let's take a step towards nature, our community, and a sustainable future. 🌿
