Woods + Water Gear Exchange offers a forever changing inventory. Season Based Outdoor Gear. I would highly recommend checking here before purchasing New or Online. Woods + Water honestly offers a little of everything. Very easy to sell one’s own pre-owned outdoor equipment or recreational items with Woods + Water. And I feel they are extremely fair with both pricing and commissions. Make sure to check it out. You’ll be happy you did.

Whenever I’m in Brunswick, I stop in at Woods + Waters Gear! Great place to go if you’re looking for gently used outdoor gear, it’s where I buy most if not all of my outdoor gear now! Jenna is knowledgeable and friendly, and has helped me find exactly what I’m looking for on numerous occasions. I recommend it to all of my friends or anyone looking for a sustainable way to buy outdoor gear at a reasonable price!

Wood + Waters always has a great selection of outdoor gear to choose from. Everyone in my family has found something they love there. Weve also had great success selling our unneeded outdoor gear. If you need something to help you enjoy the great outdoors you should check here first!

This is the best used outdoor gear resource in the area hands-down. It’s my go-to for reasonably priced, quality product to get my kids outside doing all of the activities we love, but that can be pricey to outfit- from bikes to ice skates to ski warm up pants. I also love the shopping experience, it feels organized and easy to navigate, which is NOT always the case with second hand shops. It’s worth the trip.

Woods and Water is an excellent shop for high quality outdoor gear with lots of top brands like North Face, Patagonia, Smartwool, LL Bean and more at reasonable prices. Staff is ALWAYS friendly and helpful to both consignors and shoppers!! Highly recommend for excellent, new and slightly used gear! New merchandise is always coming in!

Jenna rules and so does her shop. Such a great selection of quality used gear. I rarely come out of here empty handed. You never know what you are going to find! Thanks for such an awesome addition to business community.

I have shopped here for as long as it has been open. Always find unexpected treasures and when hunting for things they usually show up. Jenna is knowledgeable and goes out of her way to be helpful, delivering to my door once during Covid when she was closed and curbside since. Excellent resource, making the best use of good used equipment.

Wonderful experience working with the owner, Jenna. I live in MA and she is always quick to respond to my questions and will gladly ship or find a way for me to receive my item(s). Great selection of gently used or new gear and clothing. Highly recommend!

I recently have been downsizing. Jenna was great to work with. The shop is great and had great inventory. I was trying not to look as I was fearful I’d end up with more than I dropped off.

Review №17

My favorite store! I always find amazing products at killer deals. Most of the money I spend on gear and clothing goes to Woods and Waters. It always feels good to shop local, and even better to buy lightly used items. So grateful to have a store like this in my community.

Review №18

Woods + Waters is a wonderful shop for outdoor and sporting gear. Ive found many of my favorite items here and Jenna makes every customer feel like family. Ive consigned a items and been able to use the credit to buy excellent new-to-me gear. This is also the first place I go for kids hiking and backpacking gear. I never know what gems I might find. The hiking boots I bought for my daughter successfully climbed Katahdin this summer. Woods + Waters isnt only a great shop, its an important part of creating a more sustainable, eco-friendly community.

How wonderful to have a place in town that fills two functions: When you no longer need that anorak, those snowshoes or skis - or other gear, you can bring it someplace where it will NOT be thrown in the trash. And at the same time, if you would like or need new winter gear, there it is, far less pricey than at the stores. Perfect. Find your match. Thanks WWGF - you solve two problems and help save the planet in the process!

Great experience, fair prices!I have both bought and sold gear at Woods + Waters. Both experiences were great. As a fellow outdoors person, they gave advice about the items they were selling. They truly want to insure people have good, usable gear at a fair price. I love that we have a chance to re-use older gear. Very happy to have them in the community!

I am so thankful to have Woods and Water Gear Exchange in Brunswick. I have taken a number of items to Jenna for re-sale and have been incredibly happy both with how quickly my things have sold, as well as how much $$$ I have been able to recoup on my retired gear. I have also been impressed with the quality and pricing of their inventory. A nice mix of good quality contemporary stuff as well as some very cool Retro pieces. This is definitely a store worth checking out.

Review №32

I can’t say enough good things about this establishment and its owner. Every time I have utilized this service to consign and purchase gear/ apparel I’ve been treated warmly, and benefited greatly from expert knowledge and found some really great deals! This place is the feather in the cap of Brunswick and allows all who seek outdoor experiences a place to equip yourself and exchange gear no longer I use. Great store, thankful for Jenna and her business!

Ive sold a few things here, and the process is simple and straightforward. Its a somewhat dangerous shop for folks who also like buying gear, though. :) She runs some occasionally wicked awesome sales on Smartwool that can lead to some great deals on new clothing. Highly recommend.

I consigned one item and it sold quickly. Great little store and nice helpful staff. I love outdoor gear, reselling the good stuff, and making it last. It’s so much nicer to restore, reuse, and support local.

Review №37

I visit this shop every time I pass through Brunswick! Im so happy that theres another great option to get away from buying new... and that its locally owned! They have a great selection and variety of products - soft goods & apparel but also technical pieces. The price point is spot on, so the inventory turns over rapidly enough to keep it interesting and keep me coming back. For those items that are outside my price range, its nice to know the prices come down based on the number of months its been on the rack... yet another reason to duck in as I pass through. Their consignment policy in very easy and approachable.

A great place for individuals and families seeking top quality outdoor clothing at affordable prices.

Woods + Water is a great resource year round for active people and families who never outgrow their thirst for adventure and outdoor experiences.

Review №51

This store is really excellent. The owner, Jenna, has a very sincere understanding of why shes in the business, and the larger implications of using pre-owned gear to experience the natural world. The thing I like the most about her approach is how down to earth she is about camping/hiking/skiing, etc. Ive seen people from all walks of life get suited up in her store, and I think its really great that shes stripping back the gearhead/hardcore vibe that is often so prevalent in the outdoor retail industry. Ive scored everything from little kid hiking boots to ice climbing gear, AT skis to car-camping lanterns, and Ive also had really smooth consignment experiences. I also feel like I am doing a small service to the environment whenever I buy/sell from Jenna. Also, Woods and Waters Gear Exchange (in Brunswick) is on the way to EVERYWHERE in Maine, so its a great place to pick up last minute gear on your way north to the mountains or headed down east...

Great selection of samples and gently used quality gear/ apparel for all of us outdoor lovers. Weve both consigned items as well as bought -- and tough to keep my husband from leaving without some merino wool item. Thanks to Jenna for the hard work it takes to run a small business and for allowing us all to de-clutter/ Kondo our own homes/ offices a bit.
