Outdoor Gear Exchange

Outdoor Gear Exchange operates on Church Street in downtown Burlington as a straightforward outdoor sports retailer. They've been running this operation for nearly 30 years, which means they know what actually works in Vermont's climate and terrain.

Their inventory focuses on five main areas: - Hiking and camping gear - Rock climbing equipment - Paddling (kayaks, canoes, related gear) - Backcountry skiing - Nordic skiing

They carry both casual outdoor clothing and technical gear for men, women, and kids.

Their consignment shop is where you find quality pre-owned gear that complements their new inventory.

This setup works well if you're upgrading equipment or want to try something before committing to a full retail price. Used gear moves fast when it's actually maintained properly.

They're part of the Burlington Business Association and have been a Pro-level member since 2013.
