2026 Winter Used Gear Swap -powered by swap365
Winter Swap: Friday, October 16 through Sun., Oct. 18, 2026
Location: Alpine Shop Kirkwood & Columbia
More than 30 years of tradition • Three huge days of deals • Now, more time than ever to sell your gear.
For more than three decades, Alpine Shop’s Winter Swap has brought St. Louis’ outdoor community together to buy and sell great gear. This October, the tradition returns bigger than ever and now powered by Swap365, our year-round used-gear consignment program.
Shop the Swap tent filled with used outdoor gear from every season, discover special offers on new winter equipment and apparel throughout the store, or turn the gear you no longer use into credit for your next adventure.
Sell It at Winter Swap. Keep It Selling with Swap365.
Winter Swap puts your gear in front of one of our biggest shopping crowds of the year, giving you a powerful opportunity to sell it quickly.
Bring your gear to our special Winter Swap Check-In from October 10–15. We’ll have additional staff available each day to help process the season’s biggest wave of used equipment. Items checked in during this period will be held for the opening of Winter Swap at 6 p.m. on Friday, October 16.
If your gear doesn’t sell during the weekend, there’s no need to start over. It will move directly into Swap365 and remain available at Alpine Shop Kirkwood for up to 90 days. After 60 days, the price will automatically be reduced by 30%. Any item still unsold at 90 days must be picked up or will be considered abandoned and may be donated or otherwise disposed of by Alpine Shop.
You set the price. We handle the sale.
