Gear Hut is Reno's only used gear shop, here to remind you: you don’t need new hiking gear to enjoy the outdoors.

Gear Hut is stoked to be an official retailer for Little Kamper, a refillable propane system designed to replace the classic single‑use green canisters. It’s simple, and it keeps those empties out of your trunk and out of the landfill.

Dudes?! How are we already at the end of summer?! We've officially CLOSED Summer Consignment drop offs, as September dedicated to clearing out all summer inventory so we can make room for winter gear starting Oct. 14!). Important Reminder: All summer items must be picked up by September 27. Any unclaimed summer gear left in the shop after that date will automatically become store inventory at the end of day, Sept 27 and stored off site til next season. End of Season Sale & P

If you’re a Burner looking to source camping gear responsibly, Gear Hut is Reno's used option upon flying into town. We specialize in high‑quality used outdoor gear, meaning you can outfit your camp sustainably while saving money.

And so for the past 9 months, it's been persistently longer days, more evenings spent working through dinner time, fewer weekends together as a family, and very little energy left for the adventures that inspired us to build Gear Hut in the first place.

Summer's only started and yet I'm already getting that lingering sense of urgency that summer is quickly slipping away. Somehow I checked my calendar of obligations and realized our weekends are just about planned out through September. But I'm fighting that feeling of overwhelm and trying to be intentional about soaking up the sun this summer, despite a full load of work shifts and pre-planned trips. Here are five activities we're stenciling in time for on our Reno Summer To

As Reno continues to grow and evolve, many newcomers, and even longtime locals, are searching for something deeper than just a magical place to call home with so much access out their back doors.... They’re also searching for a strong mountain community. For connection. To find “their scene” here in the biggest little city. Gear Hut is hosting an upcoming community event catered to breaking down the hard steps of finding folks to connect with. Join us for an evening centered

It's all a part of the paradox of modern environmentalism: the louder sustainability becomes as a marketing strategy, the harder it is to tell what actually helps the planet... because ultimately - they're still convincing you to BUY BUY BUY.

Last year, I showed up to Women’s Bike Weekend at Sky Tavern with one goal: figure out if I was doing anything right on my bike. While I could hang with friends on most trails, I was at the point in my mountain biking journey where I wanted real instruction from certified coaches, not just the quick pointers from from other riders mid trail (that always seem to contradict). Because while I've been riding a bike since I was 5 years old, who knows if any of what I was doing on

Gear Hut Spring & Summer Rules and Dates: Our Spring & Summer Consignment Season runs from April 1 - August 30. As trails dry out, rivers pick up, and camping season ramps in Reno-Tahoe, we've got campers, boaters and bikers looking to gear up. Early consignors consistently have the most success; your items hit the floor when people are actively shopping, not after the market is saturated or smoke season hits (we're keeping our fingers and toes crossed it's not a bad year!) 1

If your goal is to sell your mountain bike in Reno (not just list it and have it collect dust in the garage), here’s how to prep it properly and price it for today’s market in Reno.

Why This Low-Snow Season Might Be the Perfect Time to Ski Diamond Peak If you’ve been paying attention to Tahoe snow reports this winter, you know it hasn’t exactly been a record-breaking season anywhere in the west. But if you’re waiting for “perfect” conditions to get up to the mountain, you might actually be missing one of the most fun and underrated times to ski. Spring! Break out the shorts and sunscreen, make a day of it: hit the slopes AND the beach or East Shore Trail

Our Spring & Summer Consignment Season officially OPENS on April 1 , and we’re working hard to transition the shop, getting ready to help your summer gear find its next adventure in Reno-Tahoe....here are some ways you can start prepping at home for a seamless drop off with us! From April 1 through August 29, we’re accepting warm-weather gear with one clear goal in mind: get it out of storage and back into action this season. Whether it’s a bike that’s been hanging in the ga

Come score closeout savings between March 17–22! Savings are about to peak! Gear Hut’s End of Season Winter Sale runs March 17–22 , and it’s your best opportunity of the year to save big on resort-focused winter gear. Because of our consignment model, we can’t run store wide sales all the time (otherwise the shop wouldn't get a cut and that's not sustainable!) That also means when we do mark things down per our agreements, it’s the real deal. Our end-of-season sale is THE t

Did you consign WINTER Gear or Apparel (skis, snowpants, snowboard boots, etc) thru Gear Hut this season? Then it's officially time to log into your consignor account to see if they have sold!

THIS is the best part of what we do. Not just getting to sort through the gear, (though we love that too, who doesn't love first dibs?), but meeting the people who used it all. The stories and adventures. The remarkable humans who helped shape outdoor recreation and sport long before access, equity, and opportunity were anything close to what it is today. One of those humans is Deborah Marshall , one of our newest consignors. Deborah splits her time between Alaska, which she

We all have that pile of stickers. You love them. You’re saving them for the PERFECT placement... but you can't commit. OR do you have that weird 3D wooden sticker that can't get wet or bend (for real, where do you think we're putting these?). Problem Solved: Come to Sticker-to-Magnet Craft Night at Gear Hut ! We’re teaming up with local creator Juliett e whose reel inspired this whole idea with her creative reel. It's an easy, creative night of turning your favorite sticker

Contrary to popular belief, the sky isn’t the limit. It’s just the beginning. Sky Tavern’s Learn to Ski and Ride program is the oldest and largest nonprofit Learn-to-Ski program in the country. Since 1948, over 125,000 youth have learned to ski or ride at Sky Tavern, all under the guidance of adult volunteers. Unlike most mountains, Sky Tavern is a true member-driven training area, a community of volunteers dedicated to helping kids get outside, build confidence, and discove

Winter Consignment comes to a close so that Gear Hut can prep for end of season transitions!

Ski season in the Reno Tahoe area means one thing at Gear Hut: all things winter gear consignment is in full swing! As closets get cleaned out and ski days ramp up, one of our most frequently asked questions is: “What brands do you take for consignment?” If you’re looking to consign ski jackets, snow pants, base layers, or winter outerwear in Reno Tahoe, here’s what you need to know... and WHY we prioritize quality outdoor brands.
