And we make it easy for you to donate unwanted gear to those that need it.
Last year we found a home for 5 tonnes of used outdoor gear.
Its simple: you send us any brand of unwanted outdoor clothing and equipment by dropping it off in store or using our returns process.
We'll then give it to someone that needs it through Alpkit Foundation and our network of charitable partners.
We guarantee that nothing goes to landfill.
Thank you to our customers for making this happen. And thank you too to the Alpkit Foundation for their support.

Pre Orders give you the opportunity to purchase your items early. Look out for the pre order date on each of these products as this is the date we expect to despatch it.
Please make sure you have read and understood the following before making your purchase:
Payment will be taken immediately and your item will be dispatched when stock arrives. Any other products ordered at the same time as a pre-ordered item will be held until the pre-ordered item comes into stock.
If you would like your additional items to be dispatched immediately, please make a separate order.
The Pre Order date is an estimate of when the stock will be ready for despatch. This can change and we will email you if it does.
Alpkit clothing has specific sizing information and we describe the specific fit of every garment from tight (ie next to skin), slim, regular or relaxed.
We offer as broad a size range as possible which is currently from XS to XXL and Size 6 to 20.

Sometimes some extra detailed advice can make all the difference.
Our store and customer service team are very knowledgeable about our products and can help you select the right size and fit.
