Terms of Service

By using Gear'd, you agree to the terms below. Please read them carefully — they explain what Gear'd is and what it isn't.

Last updated: June 2026

What Gear'd is

Gear'd is a personalized outdoor gear recommendation platform. We help you plan trips and suggest gear based on the trip details, experience level, and preferences you provide.

Recommendations are informational

All gear recommendations, packing lists, safety notes, and trip guidance on Gear'd are provided for informational purposes only. They are a starting point, not a guarantee of fit, performance, or suitability for your specific trip, body, or conditions.

Your responsibility

You are responsible for selecting equipment that is appropriate for your own experience, skills, fitness, route, weather forecast, and field conditions. Always confirm sizing, compatibility, and current condition reports before heading out.

Outdoor activities involve risk

Backpacking, hiking, climbing, paddling, skiing, and other outdoor activities involve inherent risks including injury, illness, and death. Gear'd is not a substitute for proper training, experience, navigation, or judgment in the field.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gear'd is not responsible for injuries, accidents, equipment failures, losses, or damages arising from your use of the service or any gear you purchase. Gear'd is also not responsible for retailer inventory changes, pricing changes, shipping issues, returns, or product defects.

Product availability and pricing

Product availability, specifications, and pricing may change at any time after a recommendation is generated. The retailer's website is the source of truth at the time of purchase.

Purchases happen with third-party retailers

All purchases occur directly on the retailer's website (for example REI, Backcountry, CampSaver, Public Lands, Garage Grown Gear, Amazon, or the brand directly). Gear'd does not process payments, fulfill orders, or handle returns. Your purchase is governed by the retailer's own terms, privacy policy, and return policy.

Account use

You agree to keep your account credentials secure and to use Gear'd only for lawful personal trip planning. We may suspend accounts that abuse the service.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms over time. Continued use of Gear'd after an update means you accept the revised terms.
