You've probably heard it before: “Cotton kills.”

But…does it really? 👀

Our newest blog breaks down why cotton gets such a bad rap in the outdoor world, when it's actually perfectly fine to wear, and how it compares to merino wool, polyester, and nylon.

Turns out, knowing what's on that little fabric tag can make you a much smarter outdoor shopper.

Head to the blog to get a little nerdy about your hiking clothes with us.

September means a new Nonprofit of the Month, and we're excited to welcome !

Concrete Couch has been serving the Pikes Peak Region since 2003 with a pretty awesome mission: building community through creative projects. They work alongside kids and community groups to create public art, build trails and community spaces, teach hands-on skills, explore nature, and create opportunities for people to make things together.

All month long, your $5 Shelf purchases and Friday $5 Grab Bags at MER will help support the work they're doing right here in Colorado Springs.

Good gear doing good things. We like it that way.

Barr Camp could use a few extra hands!

Volunteers are needed September 14–16 to help with some much-needed cleanup at Barr Camp, including clearing the latrines.

The good news? Your food, lodging, AND Cog Railway ride up and down are provided. Not a bad way to spend a few days on the mountain while lending a hand to a pretty special local spot.

Interested in helping out? Email Dean Waits at [email protected] for more information or to sign up.

Another month of good gear doing good things.

In July, this community helped us give $19,943 back to local nonprofits, including $1,344 to .mba

You shop. You consign. Great gear gets another adventure. And our local community gets a little stronger because of it.

Thanks for making it happen, month after month.
