About Gear Garage CDA
Gear Garage CDA is a year-round outdoor gear shop on Sherman Avenue in downtown Coeur d'Alene, stocking everything from ski and snowboard equipment in winter to e-bikes, stand-up paddleboards, and kayaks in summer. They opened their doors in late 2022 and quickly became a local favourite for their curated selection of new and used gear at fair prices.
Winter visitors can rent full ski and snowboard packages — skis, boots, bindings, poles, helmets, and goggles — for day trips to Silver Mountain or Schweitzer. Once the snow melts, the shop pivots to e-bike rentals for the Centennial Trail, SUP boards for the lake, and kayaks for exploring Higgins Point and Beauty Bay. They also carry cross-country skis, snowshoes, and camping accessories for backcountry explorers.
The shop stands out for its multi-sport focus under one roof and its commitment to getting people outside affordably. Seasonal lease programs let families gear up for an entire winter or summer without buying, and the knowledgeable staff — most of them avid skiers and paddlers — match customers to the right equipment for their skill level and plans.
