Fantastic selection of new and used outdoor gear! We picked up a wardrobe for our entire family because of the value.
If you got stuff you dont use that is camping/hiking or other non traditional outdoor sports they will sell it and given you cash or store credit awesome place all around
Got a great deal on a used tent and the staff helped me find the perfect lil camping stove.
It was my first time to this location and found some sleeping bags for a great price on the re-sell shelves. They had a bunch of products that were in great condition for good prices. If your looking to shop local its a must stop.
Fantastic selection of new and used gear. I loved being able sell some stuff I don’t need and use the credit towards new stuff. Staff is really nice. Highly recommend! Excited about my new snowboarding gear! Thanks Foster Outdoor!
In an outdoor gear world dominated with soul-less corporate-feeling REIs, this small but PACKED family gear shop has it all: friendly staff, great prices, a huge range of items, stylish and funky goods, and a great used bargain basement.My advice: go here.Would be cool if they could do outdoor BBQs in the summertime and such.
Best outdoor store in Portland. Their new section has pretty much everything you need to get outside, and the consignment stuff is well curated and well priced. I went in looking for a specific style jacket and found exactly what I wanted, pretty much brand new, at half of what I wouldve paid online. Mike and the staff are super helpful and welcoming. Go check em out!
Awesome spot run by good people. Great consignment selection, especially for camping gear.
Purchased Atlas snowshoes from Mike and his team. Online purchase but called them first to ask some questions. Great communication, fast service, the snowshoes are exactly what I wanted. I am 100% satisfied. I highly recommend!
A terrific addition to the development of Foster as a destination. The store doesnt look all very large as you enter, but there is a second room that expands the space (and the inventory) significantly. Service was friendly, and I was surprised to see how many options there were for something Ive always considered to be a niche product (snowshoes). Both their new items and the variety of consignment goods were impressive. Service was friendly and knowledgeable, just what you would hope for in a neighborhood business.
I like to go here whenever I can, to browse through some of the secondhand gear. This place has saved me so many times right before a backpacking trip or a big hike - always super affordable stuff.Love all the gear that is sold here and the staff are always knowledgeable and super friendly!
Amazing selection at great prices. Love this place! Definitely will be back
Wonderful local business! Their staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They really want to make sure you get the right thing and they don’t try to sell you something you don’t want or need. I look forward to them continuing to grow!
I love this store. They have a great selection of used gear, and factory seconds items that help people like me access outdoors gear at better prices. Ive been able to get so much great stuff here- clothing, snowshoes, sleeping pads. Staff is always super friendly and helpful and kind. Were lucky to have them in Portland.
Great Outdoor shop. Right off Foster and easy to access via bike or car. I went into to buy 3 backpacking meals for the Timberline loop around Mt. Hood this week. Stoked. Mike and Sarah both greeted me as I walked in. Both knowledgeable about outdoor gear. They also have a bunch of used gear!!! Thanks again Mike and Sarah. I look forward to heading back in more often, looking forward to the winter climbing season.Dillon
Amazing deal on used snowboard. Super friendly staff. Will happily return!
Mike and Sarah have an awesome selection of used gear. Great prices, and they treat their pickers well! Definitely coming back for great service, friendly folks, and relaxed vibes. Keep an eye out for their used skis coming in, should be good
Wow! What a selection of new and gently used seasonal gear. This is our go-to place when we need to gear up for an adventure. Clean shop and merchandise, comfortable atmosphere and friendly staff.
Lots of cool stuff at affordable prices
Awesome outdoor store with great selection of used and new gear. Easy to find and get in and out.
I really love this place. So fun to visit
Great community store. Changing inventory based on the season, but can find a lot of standard camping and hiking needs. Great used selection as well. Parking easy out front. Very helpful owner.
Amazing customer service, quality gear, and good prices. Im going to hit that customer service note one more time, just because its a lost art in retail. Extra credit for playing awesome shopping music.
Not a very big place, but an excellent spot for used outdoor gear, and staff is helpful in making picks from the new stuff.
Great place, found it by accident (just driving around) Im glad I stopped! Found myself a great jacket and you cant beat the price!
Great shop for new and consigned outdoor gear. The prices are very fair for brand-name cosigned items (Patagonia, The North Face, Columbia). Parking is easily accessible. The store is a true gem to the Foster-Powell/Lents neighborhood.
Great place for snowshoes and information! Got excellent customer service.
Friendly and helpful staff. Good selection of beer and used items including kids shoes. Will definitely come again.
Great staff great products will go again
I love this place! Such a great addition to the FoPo neighborhood. Great deals on used stuff and their new stuff is all high quality gear.I’ll go here first for all my outdoor needs! The staff is always super friendly and helpful as well.
Great used outdoor clothing selection, high quality brands. Like next adventure basement but better quality used gear and better organized. Limited new clothing/gear but some solid options. Love this addition to the neighborhood and cant wait to go back after Christmas when Im allowed to shop for myself! A small toy table is available for little ones to play, a nice touch.
Jam packed with quality and quantity in this little neighborhood shop! Always amazed at the brands they carry, and the shear amount of awesome used gear they have here. Especially backpacks and footwear and clothing - always check here first, get a great deal, and put some money into the local hood! And if youre looking to trim your unused gear locker and clean up your closet, the consignment system they have here is easy and rewarding.
Very friendly and knowledgeable. Its great to have a st I re in the upper SE neighborhood
Great addition to the neighborhood! Stopped by to grab something we needed for a weekend trip and was impressed by their selection. The owner was super nice and we got a great deal on the plates and bowls we came to get. Also picked up a map of the mt hood area as an impulse buy. We’ve already made a list of the next items we need from Foster Outdoor, so we’ll be back soon.
We had such a great experience buying some sleeping pads here. Great prices and super helpful service. Since wed never used a sleeping pad before, they let us try some out in the store and were very helpful answering questions and giving us time to browse. Well definitely be returning here for our outdoor needs.
A real gem on Foster.
Went here for a new day pack and snow shoes. Got all the guidance I needed on choices from the owner. Was a very nice guy and super helpful. Prices are competitive with REI. And it feels good to support local! Will shop here from now on for all my bigger gear purchases!
I love this little outdoor store. They give a fair price when buying and they have a great selection of gear. I just love that the friendliest used gear shop is in the Fopo neighborhood.
Cool place with a variety of new and some consignment items. Great selection of quality outdoor gear. Work Boots are plenty, great selection of consignment backpacks, day packs and overnight packs as well. Definitely worth a pass through, you will find something you want/need. Owner is great, easy to talk to and knows where to direct you when looking for something specific.
Very good deals and owner was lovely to talk to. Similar to next adventure but with a more relaxed atmosphere. Im definitely coming here for all my future hiking, camping, and climbing needs. Probably my best shopping experience in the past year. KEEP IT UP FOSTER OUTDOOR!!!
Locally owned and friendly people and staff whenever I visit.
Went out of their way to look stuff up so I could be informed about the tent!
Hey Mike! I love Fosters local Outdoor spot. Ive found great deals, new outdoor tips, and my friends must think alike since we all end up here at the same time! Consignments please!
Great local selection for new and used gear!
Great place. Reminds my of Next Adventure back when it was good, cheap, friendly, ethical, small and had local flavour. Staff was nice, consignment was fair and trackable online. looked like a good mix or gear and clothing. I will support these guys.
Mike the owner is the best! Super friendly and knowledgeable. If youre looking for new or used gear for your outdoor adventure come here. Better prices than REI and great value for your money!
Great little shop with high quality merch and helpful staff.
Great addition to the neighborhood! Love the mix of new and used gear. The owners are super friendly. This shop is going to do great!
Great new addition to the changing Foster strip. New gear to get you ready for hitting the trail as well as a great selection of recycled and really cool vintage items . I will definitely keep popping back to find that next sweet deal. They have a kids area, so the kids can play while you browse the goodies.
Nice owner, family run. great options, a good blend of technical and fun outdoor gear. consignment prices are good too!
Great selection of quality used goods covering a wide array of outdoor activities. Helpful sales staff. Some new items.
Terrific prices! Good selection of new and used outdoor clothes and equipment in great condition. Friendly owner and a kids play area for the little ones. We will be shopping there all the time.
Super kind and friendly staff. The store is laid out nicely. They even spin records. New and used gear!!! As someone who’s spent the better part of my adult life shopping for used gear and outdoor apparel; I can confidently say Foster Outdoor is legit. The prices are on point! If you live in SouthEast; this is your new neighborhood gear shop.
They have an excellent selection. Consignment items were very good condition. We’ll be back!!
Went in here to look at backpacks, and Tiffany spent almost an hour explaining the packs, their differences, helping me try them on and ultimately finding me an awesome used pack for a steal of a price. Couldn’t recommend more!
Best in town

My quick review:The staff is great, informative and friendly.They have a good good market of used and new gear.The atmosphere is what one wants of a neighborhood shop.I highly recommend going here first for any outdoor needs! This is SE Portlands hot new outdoors store!My store experience:Having just driven back into town from backpacking the Wallowas, I was beat, tired and my destroyed shoes had done a number on my feet and ankles. I was almost home when I passed Foster outdoor. Some of their gear and clothing selection were outside with a summer sale sign on the rack. Undoubtedly tired, I knew I needed new shoes. I stopped here, surprised I had never noticed it before. Given my condition at that point, I felt like finding it then was meant to be.I was greeted by Mike, a human who looks like someone who knows the outdoors and how to gear up for being in the world. He answered a list of questions about a variety of gear. And when I asked about shoes he showed me to both the new and used selection. The shop was cozy, felt very neighborhood esque and was well stocked. While I was there and Mike was helping the customers, I got into a pleasant conversation which was a nice garnish on the experience. To top off an already above expectation visit, Mike found me an almost new pair of shoes, at a sweet price! They probably fit better than any hiking boots I have found myself. Needless to say, Im going back here for my outdoor gear needs.
Nice to see a shop like this close be. Good selection of new and used equipment.
This is an excellent outdoor store with a great selection of new and used gear.

Its a great place for finding things you need for camping, but it is kinda expensive. Good customer service though.
