Olympia Gear Exchange is a unique store offering new and used outdoor clothing, shoes, equipment, and tools for hiking, camping, climbing, running, biking, skiing, and kayaking. It is a great place to find high-quality, gently used gear and great supplies, including brand name items, at great prices to save money. The inventory is ever-changing and includes items like waterproof jackets, hiking boots, backpacks, camping cookware, wool socks, and even music instruments. The owner and employees are super friendly, extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and provide great service, assisting customers in selecting the right gear. Customers can also bring in items they no longer need to be sold. It is a nice store and a great way to save money and the environment by buying used.
A few years ago I got a two piece 7mm wet suit here for a GREAT deal, and it still serves me well to this day.

Anytime is a good time to head down to oympia Gear exchange , even if you not sure what you need , you might find something you like. If I didn't travel for work, I would probably go there once a week.,......
