About gear.tent

We are Nancy, Nathan and Asha. Our common thread is we all grew up in beautiful Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (Treaty 6 territory-traditional lands of the Cree, Salteaux, Dene, Dakota, Lakota, Nakota and homeland of the Métis). We all have a lovable rascal of a dog, and we all love being outside. As a team, Nancy manages gear.tent marketing and owns a real life used gear store called Life Outside Gear Exchange, Nathan lives for crunching real and pretend numbers on excel spreadsheets and business plans, and Asha speaks a language of internet coding with our app developer the rest of us can't understand.
We want to introduce ourselves to say, hey, we are not far away co-founders in Silicon Valley, but we are real people who made an app for Canadians to make life outside more accessible, affordable and environmentally sustainable.
We are here because we know the value of high-quality outdoor gear and clothing, and know it's too expensive to buy brand new, and too expensive to sit unused. There's tons of great used gear out there across Canada, and it's about connecting the community, and making it simple to access. Now with gear.tent, buying great used outdoor gear is easy, secure, and convenient to find fantastic items for less.
Join us! gear.tent is designed to be a community of outside enthusiasts buying and selling favourite outdoor brands. We've worked hard to shape an app experience that is easy to navigate, builds off of connecting like minded community, and is curated so only high-quality gear is for sale. Download the app, browse, shop, or post to sell gear. Then, tell a friend about us! We would love for this to snowball, and we know the best way is through word of mouth. In the meantime, find us on social media under @gear.tent - we will post great gear for sale, and maybe some pictures of our crazy dogs.
