Switching Gear is a great discovery and destination stop in Canmore. It is a great consignment store for any mountain, sporting, or camping gear without the high costs. Customers can find used outdoor stock at good and reasonable prices, including hiking boots, backpacks, jackets, and other equipment in perfect condition. The selection is loved, and you never know what gem you might find. The staff are awesome, very knowledgeable, and provide helpful customer service. The business model allows people to shop for used items to save cash and the planet, and then sell gear back at the end of the season for a win-win. A small downside is that some clothes can be a little expensive for their condition. The store is highly recommended.
