Outdoor Equipment Suppliers Resources related to Outdoor Equipment Suppliers.

The outdoor retail industry is a very tough business. Margins on most items except clothing are very small. Competition with none outdoor retailers (or quasi outdoor retailers) selling cheap rip offs made in the far east are all around. Many retailers are under huge pressure to stop selling garments made by cheap labour on one hand and to lower prices to compete on the other. Over the last five years our shopping habits have nearly destroyed the clothing industry in the USA and Canada. Please do your best to support North American producers of outdoor clothing and equipment.
