I'm a big thrifter. I hit up the stores in the wealthier parts of town as often they donate things after only a few wears. I once found a newer version lightweight 20° Coleman down bag for 25 CENTS. 😂😂
THRIFTIN IS SUPER FUN - TO WATCH - JUST NEVER WOULDVE THOUGHT OF GETTING CAMPING ESSENTIALS - AS WELL - GOTTA DO MORE OF THESE - KIND OF VIDS - PRO TIP / LOOKING FOR MENS JACKETS - ALSO TRANSLATES FOR WOMEN - JUST GOTTA GET 2x SMALLER SIZING ... HAPPY THRIFTIN... ( : ) ) ...
Definitely do a round two, maybe with Nick finding some deals. You can also find some decent used cast iron and stainless steel cookware for camping in there as well. Thrift stores are fantastic, when I was in high school in the early 90s we used to hit them at least once a month.
I always look for cast iron in the thrift stores! I would love to find some good thrift store deals for Nick. I think that will be a lot harder because there's not nearly as much men's stuff to choose from. It will be a good challenge!
I personally like cotton because wicking shirts are too hot and get smelly fast. If the weather is questionable then yes wool or fleece. I always carry something with me but I prefer cotton or a blend most of the time. The sweaty shirt makes natural A/C. 😅😅
Next time I'll definitely look more at the men's stuff. There's a lot less to choose from, so I think it will be a good challenge to find some items that Nick likes. I'm excited!
I found a pair of patagonia pants for $6, 2 - Chaco hiking sandals for $8 and a brand new alpaca sweater for $9 at a thrift store in the past month. They are all my current favorites...so comfortable!
I love thrift stores!! Would love more content like this. Also, do you have a video about the types of fabric to wear for different seasons while hiking/camping? Normally I like cotton but I gather from this video it's not good for hiking? I'd love to know more 😊
Yes! She made a video a couple years back about what to wear hiking - I found it super helpful: ruclips.net/video/lDWekb3hcgg/видео.htmlsi=76ndikSPcmdKexcc
Round 2 please!! This first round was great!! My family always look for camping clothes at thrift stores; especially warm clothing for those chilly summer nights in the Alberta Rockies ❣️
I thrift regularly, finding the right material is always the key as well as something that catches your eye so that you are excited to wear it. Great video❤
Round Two!! You’ve definitely inspired me cause I am in need of some warmer base layers. I really liked the video and thought it had good information. Quality was also top notch, I’ve watched for a year or two at least and it has only gotten better!
Every year our local marathon has an expo before the race. The local Goodwill saves all the donated running clothes throughout the year which is also good for hiking to sell at the expo. They have clothes for all seasons and I find all kinds of awesome clothes and deals at the expo every year.
Yes, around two!!! I need to start hitting the thrift stores myself going on a month-long camping trip next year hitting several national parks! Earlier this year, I tried to find a vest with multiple pockets And some wool tops for Travel in the thrift stores and it didn’t find! I’ll be looking for hiking pants and a few other things! Thank you!
I always love what I call a 'shopping conquest'. When I was still working I'd get some crazy deals on eBay for dressy office clothing and shoes. We have a thrift shop in my town that specifically sells used outdoor gear. I buy my brother a gift card there every year for his birthday and he has scored some really great deals. A day pack that he said was usually well past $100 for something like $15, wader boots for fishing, etc. It's so cool.
Great video! Can you do an informational video about your favorite fabrics for hiking / camping? I know you really like wool for the winter, but what about spring, summer or fall? Thank you. I love your videos / content ☺️
She did one a couple years ago that touched on some stuff around fabrics that might be a helpful start! ruclips.net/video/lDWekb3hcgg/видео.htmlsi=76ndikSPcmdKexcc
Love this video idea! Some of my favorite outdoor clothes are thrifted! Whatever I can wash on "hot" seems brand new to me 😊 can't beat $5 merino base layers!!
This was a fun video, I like thrifting...love how you showed the other options in store, to encourage others and show that there can be a lot of options.
Great finds on the Kühl stuff. Aside from quality gear they have awesome customer service. They repaired the snap button on my pants, no questions asked. The whole procedure to 10 days start to finish. I’ll be a lifelong customer.
Yay! A new video! I've missed your content. That's an amazing deal 👍 Just out of curiosity, did you happened to noticed if the places you went to carried plus sized hiking clothing?
Happy to be back after a little break! 😀 I don’t recall if there were specific plus-size sections, but in general, I thought there was a big selection of clothes and sizes to look through in most of the stores!
Super stoked this video came up in my RUclips search. It’s exactly what I was looking for. It’s Autumn 🍂 here in the Smoky Mountains 🏔️ Nearly winter ❄️ The perfect time to begin hiking 🥾 and more outdoor activities. Tourists come from all over the world 🌎 to see our leaves 🍁 change color. Your video will help me refine my eyes 👀 in the thrift store while looking for outdoor gear ⛺️ & women’s clothing. I’m going to find them in the wild at a thrift store (not eBay where I’d have to pay a premium for convenience.). As a true beginner I won’t need anything super specific this season. But by next year I’ll surely have found a lot. And know better what will specifically suit me for my environment & activities. 👋 New subbie. Thanks for the inspo 🙏
Thrift stores are fantastic. I have found some really great pieces in Oregon and Washington when I’ve visited. I found some great hiking pants here in CA. I love merino wool. I have never found that at a thrift store but I have found good deals at REI in CA and online with sierra trading post. I love the vest cuz it is so versatile. I have one I got from Patagonia cuz I live where their headquarters are located. But I wear it a lot. Always wise to thrift store first. Then look for sales. If you are patient, you can find great things. I will def keep my eyes open for merino wool or smart wool. You really want to pay attention to fabric and quality of the fabric. Keep up the good work
ROUND 2! Love your channel! Would you do more on solo camping, please? Apologies for being off topic but: Do you "do" your brows yourself? They are great! What is the brand/color of your eyeshadow? Love it! Lastly, although you do not care for pink, it looks very good on you. 🤗
I saved so much finding great hiking clothes at benefit shops. Patagonia base layer shirt, Arc'teryx fleece, merino wool beanie, and a lot of synthetic shirts & shorts. It also got me to buy clothes & colors that I don't normally wear to get me out of my shell so to speak hah. Great video.
Round 2! I very rarely buy new gear. There is so much available at the thrift, specially if you check back a handful of times. I understand the getting carried away aspect too! You definitely need to always have a list in your head to stick to. This reminds me of Stacked Golfs channel but for outdoors! They do so well on their channel with essentially the same premise!! My best find to-date is an Icebreaker Westerly MerinoLoft anorak jacket for $20 CAD… I found it online for the original price of $509.99 USD!!
Round two! Yes please! Great finds! I feel like I will not have that luck here in Ohio. Utah yes where there are so many people doing outside activities. But I still want give it a try. Love your videos!
My hiking wardrobe is 100% thrifted (well, minus socks and undies 🤣). I don't live in a hiking area, but there are a lot of people that run marathons here. We have a consignment sale in the area twice a year that is geared more toward kids, but there is a "teen/junior" section and I have found so many synthetic shirts that are perfect for hiking. I just buy my pants used off ebay. Not only do I save money, but I don't have to worry about ruining a $100+ piece of clothing out on a hike when I paid far under the retail price for it.
I love the idea of thrifting in theory, I just can't make it work for me. I never see good stuff like you found here! Some of that is regional - I assume the outdoor gear that gets thrifted in Utah or Seattle is going to be better than here in the mid-Atlantic. I think they key is going to the thrift store frequently, but doing that (and digging through everything) just takes a lot of time that I don't have. I also find that, like with the two polyester shirts you bought, I wind up getting things I don't really need or love just because they seem OK and are so cheap.
I have never though to look for hiking gear in thrift shops. Now I need to schedule a girls thrifting day with friends. I do look for really good flannel shirts when I go.
I will definitely try thrifting next time. Laughed my butt off because I have the exact same camo Columbia pants you were looking at. I never buy unless on sale but I'm sure mine were still way more expensive than the thrift version.
I definitely want to keep looking for gear and clothing at the thrift stores! The cast iron pan I use all the time when camping is one that I found at an antique store. Thank you for watching!
I assume you were shopping around Utah? I can definitely see a high amount of outdoors clothing being donated in that area. A little sparse in the flat Midwest for find in thrift stores here. But I really enjoyed watching this video and seeing your finds 👍
Make sure to check for your thrift store sale days to save even more. Imagine getting those great deals even cheaper on sale!! That’s my kind of shopping!
Hi Amanda, we live in St. George. Where is Savers located? I buy most of my hiking clothes from thrift stores and have found the best deals! So fun, saves me when I buy my hiking shoes because that’s where I don’t skimp. Thanks for your videos and happy and safe hiking
@@amanda.outsidethanks Amanda, wish we had a Savers here in St George. We love it here , we moved here almost 3 years ago from Oregon, so glad we did🤗. Safe and happy trails.🥾

This is so cool! Two of my passions: thrifting and outdoors ❤
Thrifting is the way to go. I loved this video and definitely want a round 2. I would also love to see shoes / sandals you like to hike in.
This was one of the best videos!! I love finding hidden gems. Part 2 please and part 3
I thrift regularly, finding the right material is always the key as well as something that catches your eye so that you are excited to wear it. Great video❤
Absolutely! So glad you enjoyed this one and thank you for commenting!
This was a great video. I love your hiking ones, but one of these every once in a while is perfect!
Round Two!!
You’ve definitely inspired me cause I am in need of some warmer base layers.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this one!! I definitely want to do more videos like this. It was so much fun to make!

love love LOVE this kind of stuff! most most of my gear is thrifted, clothes particularly! ROUND 2!
Loved this ! Amazing finds ! Tell me why you don't wear cotton...and you didn't mention whether you like polyester or not. Also a fan of smartwool !
Yay!! I love thrifting, too! You found some amazing items! 😍

That's so great to hear! I really love their clothing. The vest and pants I found are some of my favorite items!
That was a really fun video! I also love thrift and that was super real!! Nice work!

Loved this! I’m a big thrifter for my clothes but never thought to look for hiking clothes. Thanks for the tip!
You're so welcome! I hope you find some great items!
Round 2. Fun video. You found some great things!
I love thrifting too. I look for natural fabrics for general wear such as linen, wool etc...
Ps- thanks for speaking about your pant size, im also a 6 or 8 tall and have tops that range from small to large depending on brand or fit.
If you enjoyed making the video, make another. I'm not a thrifter, but I watched this one , a bit of variety is always good

I am a huge fan of the thrift store. The majority of my outdoor apparel are thrift store finds.
Round 2 for any outdoor stuff! Gear, clothing, etc.
Great idea for a video. Round 2 would be good, maybe if there's hiking/camping gear in thrift stores?
Round 2 please!!
Round 2 please! 😃
YES !!!!!! Round TWO please and thank you
YES!!!! I will be doing this asap!!! Thank you for SO much for the inspiration ❤ Also, it’s good to see you back 🥾
Round 2 for sure
round 2, please!
Please do a round 2!
ROUND 2!
Love your channel! Would you do more on solo camping, please?

Great idea for a video and it's helping make the outdoors more accessible if people discover there are some great second-hand bargains out there.
Round 2!
Round two! Yes please! Great finds! I feel like I will not have that luck here in Ohio. Utah yes where there are so many people doing outside activities. But I still want give it a try. Love your videos!
A couple years ago, I found a beautiful Woolrich plaid wool hunting jacket at the Salvation Army for $7!
Round 2 please. Do we send you our sizes?
Great finds! 😊🙌
I'm starting my hunt for clothing to enjoy the outdoors in colder and wet weather. This gave me a lot of good insights. Great video!😊
Enjoy!! I hope you find some great items. Thank you for commenting!
round 2!
Round 2 !!!! 😃

Love all your items! Great video.

* going to a thriftstore.
Hereby that is added to my to-do list for when I am ever going to America.😅
Those prices are just....😳....
Round 2 :)
Used to be that buying from thrift stores was a mark of shame. These days, it’s being smart.
Love the thrift stores!!
Love the thrift store too!!

My niece does that but resells on eBay.
Wow❤
Overnight in a thrifted tent and sleep system.
Thank you!!

Oh I love St. George! I live in Salt Lake and there's a Savers here in the valley!
@@amanda.outsidethanks Amanda, wish we had a Savers here in St George. We love it here , we moved here almost 3 years ago from Oregon, so glad we did🤗. Safe and happy trails.🥾
I got a 8 man tent for $8 in perfect shape. Found a 4 man tent later for $5.
What do you think about wearing linen while hiking in the summer ? Comments anyone? 😊
I can’t find stuff like this in South Carolina …😢and finding pants for 5ft…nope
Love thrifting. 80% of my wardrobe is thrifted
WTG!
Round 2…camping gear
I wish we had even decent thrift stores around here. Not so much sadly ...
