The Gear43 Difference: About Us

Welcome to our Gear43. This isn't your ordinary shop.
A few years ago, we had a crazy idea: What if there was a way to shop for products that didn't sell just anything. What if there was a shop that only sold products that we would actually recommend to family and friends?
That's how Gear43 was born.
We're a little different than the rest... Fake reviews? We don't do that here.
When you shop here, we want you to feel confident in what you're buying, which is why we only sell products we can stand behind; in fact, we do our best to get as many of these products into our hands to test ourselves, so we can answer your questions knowledgeably and with firsthand knowledge.
We even have a team of product testers who put some of these products through their paces. If we find a product we don't like, we don’t sell it here. Simple as that.
Our Process
We're pretty picky with the products that end up in our shop! Let us tell you a little bit more about our process and how a product ends up on this site…
Our Team
We are a team of everyday guys who get to check out amazing products and share the best of the best with you!
Austin
Austin is the founder of Gear43. In fact, this site was born from his passion for helping people find the right gear. This passion carries through to all of the gear found in this store, with honest opinions and thorough research.
Adam
To say that Adam puts products to the test is an understatement. Whether it's getting firewood, hiking in the woods, or doing chainsaw carvings, Adam uses his gear to the max.
Luke
As a former firefighter, Luke knows what makes good gear. It needs to be high quality, with a balance of cool design elements. And that's what you can expect to see in his reviews as well: a balance between functionality and style.
So, take a look around and see what awesome new products you can find for your daily life!
