Golden Hour Gear Exchange
Golden Hour Gear Exchange - how it works
Great Gear Deserves More Than One Adventure
At Sunlight Sports, we believe outdoor gear should live a long, well-used life. The Golden Hour Gear Exchange is our way of helping you find high-quality used gear—or pass yours on to someone else who’s ready to put it to work. Whether you’re shopping or selling, it’s a simple way to keep the outdoor cycle going.
For Buyers: Find Your Next Favorite Setup
Carefully Vetted Gear
Every item is inspected by our team - and tuned in our ski shop when needed - so it's ready for the trail, mountain, or campsite.
Fair Prices
From skis to sleeping bags, you’ll find premium gear at prices that make getting outside more accessible.
Better for the Planet
Buying used keeps good gear in action and out of the landfill. It’s a smarter way to shop - and it supports a more sustainable outdoor community.
For Sellers: Let Us Handle the Details
What We Accept
We’re looking for well-maintained gear from trusted outdoor brands, including:

For Sellers: Turn your well-made gear into something new, for you or someone else.
For Everyone: Less waste. More trails, turns, and nights under the stars.
A Few Things to Know
Space is limited. We keep a curated selection. If we're full, we may ask you to bring your gear back at a later time.
Gear that goes unclaimed becomes property of Sunlight Sports after April 1st. We’ll do our best to contact you beforehand, but please stay in touch if your gear hasn’t sold.
Used gear is sold as-is. Manufacturer warranties rarely apply.
We may say no. If your gear is too worn or no longer functional, we won’t be able to accept it—especially true for older Nordic gear, which may lose flex over time even if it looks fine.
