With the Festive season approaching, it’s time to fill up your Christmas stockings with some goodies! Here are some suggestions of how to treat your climbing buddies. To make it easier we have broken down our suggestions into categories: Inspirational, Practical, Well-being and ”Level up your game!”

Inspirational gift ideas:
- Free Solo – A gift that anyone will appreciate. Climber or not, this documentary and its story is an achievement in human history. Rent it on any streaming platform or buy a dvd, its worth it! With stunning videography and breath-taking climbing moves, witness Alex climbing 3000ft sheer rock without any safety equipment.
- The Dawn Wall – In 2015, American rock climbers Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson captivated the world with their effort to climb an “impossible” 1000m rock face in Yosemite. The pair lived on the edge for weeks, igniting a frenzy of global media attention.
- Dirtbag: The Legend of Fred Beckey – Hailed as one of the most prolific and influential climbers of all time, Fred Beckey conquered more unclimbed peaks than anyone in history. His 80-year career was perhaps just as well known for pioneering the freewheeling American ‘dirtbag’ lifestyle, as well as cutting edge first ascents. This film explores both feats!

- Climbing clothing – Climbers tend to wear their clothing till they fall apart. Receiving a new climbing hoodie or a t-shirt is always appreciated! Our shop has a variety of hoodies and t-shirts to kit you out.
- Climbing Shoes – Holes in toes? It’s time to upgrade! We have a variety of climbing shoes to offer from: Scarpa, 5.10, La Sportiva, Evolv and EB.
- Belay glasses – excellent for reducing aches and pains in your neck, when belaying, whilst still being lightweight and resilient!
- Chalk – No matter how much chalk climbers have, they will inevitably run out. A chalk ball or loose chalk are good options!
