50 DAYS is closing (continued)…

Our extended gratitude to our handpicked ambassadors who played an important part in our community. We purposefully stayed away from online influencers and carefully considered people who were trusted in the outdoor industry for their skill and prowess. They were your teachers, your friends, your colleagues, your family next door, who all go on amazing adventures that you secretly admire.

When we started 10 years ago, ‘ultralight’ was still a relatively unknown and untrusted quantity. We have witnessed an innovation in quality of materials and products in this time and our ambassadors helped (even when they didn’t think they were) to create this sense of trust in our brand. A massive thank you for your contributions (in no particular order) .hogarth
& Rach Dobson.

To all our friends who helped us along the way, you know who you are… THANK YOU.

Thank you to the lands we adventure, rest and live on, and to the Traditional Custodians who have cared for country over a Millenia. We recognise that without you 50 DAYS would never have existed.

There is more we would like to do, however for now this will have to be enough. We will now turn our energy towards rebuilding our lives, and close our doors at the end of this financial year.

It is with deep regret and sadness we announce the closing of 50 DAYS.

Unfortunately the impacts of the 2024 and 2025 bushfires,
and the economic downturn including cost of living have meant it is no longer possible to keep our doors open.

We would like to thank you ALL; customers, speakers, distributors, makers, friends and family for your love and support over the last 10 years of operation. Our purpose was to create a community, introduce innovative outdoor gear to Australia, inspire people to journey their own way, and share our passion of long distance walking.

We are proud of what we have created. It was never our goal to become a franchise. We hope for those of you who interacted with us either in person or online through our various events over the years, that your experience was a helpful or inspiring one.

Some of the things we are most proud of: 🏕️Being the first online ultra and lightweight retailer in Australia
🏕️Introducing and to Australian shores and creating our own marketing
🏕️Creating spaces for people to share their adventures and inspire others through our Adventurous Women Speaker Series & Adventurer Speaker Series (in person and IG live)
🏕️Supporting Australian ultralight cottage makers .the.hike
🏕️Supporting the rise of women adventuring outdoors through Travel Play Live Magazine, She Went Wild Expo’s, and
🏕️Enabling customers to feel more capable and comfortable in their adventures and gear choices
🏕️Home (& Macca’s carpark) customised pack fittings
🏕️Kitting out World Challenge participants

There’s still some more acknowledgments we can’t fit in here, so please read Part 2. 🙏🏼💕

To our beautiful friends and family.
THANK YOU for all the love and support you have been sending our way. Bill, Remy and I have been overwhelmed with love and it is that love that now brings tears to our eyes rather than the loss of our home.

Family and friends have set up a crowd funding page to help us buy a trailer tiny home while we rebuild.

If you would like to contribute then this is the place to do it. The wonderful community of Pomonal is taking care of all our other needs of accommodation, food, clothes.

The Pomonal Community has a go fund me page to help rebuild our village. We also encourage people to offer their support here so we can heal together as a community. A link can be found below or at the bottom of our crowdfunding page. 💗💕💗💕

On Tuesday February 13th 2024, the village of Pomonal, next to Gariwerd (Grampians NP) was devastated by bushfire. The incredible efforts of fire agencies and locals stopped the fire from spreading further. Tragically, 44 houses and properties in and around Pomonal village were lost.
