Summit Bound Outfitter
About
Summit Bound Outfitter is a climbing and outdoor gear shop in Somerville’s Union Square that bills itself as having Boston’s largest selection of climbing gear. Alongside climbing equipment, it stocks outdoor gear for a range of uses. The staff are passionate climbers themselves, and they help customers find the right gear and share local climbing insights, whether the shopper is a gear nerd, a lifelong climber or a serious athlete.
Colin Maneval, an avid climber himself, has been bringing outdoor adventure to Union Square through the shop. Beyond retail, Summit Bound hosts yoga, movie nights and other interactive events that bring people together. The shop describes itself as part of the Greater Boston climbing community rather than just a store, and it invites climbers to come by and chat with the team about gear and their climbing goals.
