How Coldbrook
came together

The brookWaypoint 01Where it started
Named after a cold brook
Every good trip we took seemed to end at the same cold brook, filling bottles and comparing what worked and what did not. Coldbrook is the gear list that came out of those conversations.

Field testedWaypoint 02How gear earns its place
Chosen in the rain, not in the catalogue
See the rangeEvery piece has to pass three questions: is it genuinely useful on a trip, does it hold up when the weather turns, and does the supplier give real numbers we can print. If the answer is no to any of them, it does not make the range.
-
KitsWaypoint 03Buy by the trip
Six things, not one
Shop the first trip kitSomeone kitting out for a first camping trip needs a shelter, something to sleep on, light, a way to cook and a seat by the water. So the store is built around activities and kits, with the specs that matter on every page.

Where it goesWaypoint 04Where it goes
Further than last time
Shop by activityRidges, lakeshores, a field behind a friend's house. Wherever the trip is, the aim is the same: gear that carries well, keeps you warm and dry, and lets you focus on the miles ahead.
