Our approach
Fewer things, described properly.
GearGlade is a small online shop for hiking and camp gear, selling to customers in the United States.
What we sell
A short list, on purpose.
Our range is five products: a 40L hiking backpack, a 35L roll-top dry backpack, carbon fiber folding trekking poles, 24-spike ice cleats and an inflatable sleeping pad.
Keeping the list short lets us describe each item properly instead of filling the shop.
How we describe gear
Three rules we follow.
01Real specifications
We list the specifications we have confirmed for each item. If we have not confirmed a number, such as an insulation rating, we leave it out.
02Clear limits
We say what a product is not for. Our ice cleats, for example, are made for icy trails, not for climbing or mountaineering.
03Plain terms
Our shipping, refund and privacy terms are written in plain words, each on its own policy page.
Shipping
We ship to addresses in the United States, and every order ships with tracking. Costs and delivery times are in our shipping policy. Shipping policy
