Outdoor Retailer Photos from the Showroom Floor

Canada Goose combines down and softshell. A sick midlayer on insanely cold days, or a good around-town jacket.


Baby head holds


So Ill Holds biodegradable hold cleaner. A nice product for any climbing gym employees sick of trying to work with muriatic acid.


Mission Workshop bags. Super high end cycling gear. Their stuff is insanely rad.


A view of a small section of Outdoor Retailer from above.


Any company that manufactures in North America is working hard to push that point.


Chaco will begin selling clogs. They have the same footbed as their sandals. Finally, you can wear them with socks and not be ridiculed.


Ever wonder what seam tape looks like before they put it all over your coat? Me neither. Here you go.


There are a lot of Chinese manufacturers trying to find people to work with. They didn't do a great job proofreading their marketing copy in this case.


Short tall-bike is not an oxymoron in this case. Outside Tibuk2 bags.


ABS avalanche airbags. The thing on the sternum strap is a remote detonator. Your ski buddy will be able to set off your airbag if you can't pull the ripcord in time. The ensemble retails for about $1600.


That guy from Dave Chapelle's movie Half Baked was on local Utah TV promoting some comedy stops. They made him put on a hat from the earlier segment they'd run on Outdoor Retailer.


Some of the best-selling outdoor gear of all time. The Toaster was Coghlan's first product, and they say they've sold over 3 million of them.


Rab has a big presence at OR. Should be interesting to see if the brand grows a lot in the U.S.

    Maybe that Chinese manufacturer was making hardshells. Point of a good hardshell is in fact to stay closed to nature.
