Outdoor Prolink
Outdoor Prolink is a one-stop shop with up to 50% off MSRP on top outdoor brands for qualified outdoor professionals. We strive to be the most authentic, responsible pro purchase program in the industry. Qualified outdoor industry professionals are the people who create, sell or rely on outdoor gear to further the pursuit of outdoor recreation for everyone. Our mission is to outfit our pros (stewards of the great outdoors) with high-quality, affordable gear so they can protect and promote the wild places we love. We believe that pro purchase programs are only effective if they are 100% legit, and we have spent 15 years building trusted brand relationships and gathering a community of authentic professionals. We act as the facilitator of trust to “link” them to one another. Our CEO, Gareth Richards, founded Outdoor Prolink in his basement in 2004. He spent years in the outdoor industry - working as a mountain guide, kayak guide, and outdoor educator. His love of the outdoors has led him to build a company with a crew who love to get after it! We are all truly lovers of the outdoors ourselves - our motto is "work hard so we can clock out and play even harder". Climbing, skiing, hiking, training, coding, traveling, eating… you name it, our crew is going for the send!
