Taking care of your winter gear now ensures it’ll be good to go when the snow flies again next season. 

Ski & Snowboard Storage

Winter Apparel

- Wash and dry your jackets, pants, and gloves according to the manufacturer’s instructions

- Fix any rips, tears, or busted zippers. No one likes busted gear.

- Store your clothes in a breathable garment bag away from sunlight and humidity.

- Pro Tip: Adventure365 has specialty detergent for your winter gear, and if those rips are looking nasty, we’ve got patches that’ll make them as good as new.

Now that your winter gear is squared away, it’s time to make sure your spring kit is ready to crush.

Bike Tune-Up

- Clean your bike’s frame and inspect for any damage. A little TLC goes a long way.

- Lubricate your chain and tweak your gears.

- Check tire pressure and brake function. Tubeless? Make sure you start the season with fresh sealant.

- Make sure your saddle bag is fully stocked - replace anything you may have used last season.

- Pro Tip: Need a tune-up? Bring your bike into Adventure365—we’ll take care of the details, so you can ride with confidence.

Check Your Running Gear

- Examine your running shoes for tread wear. Are they ready to tackle a new season, or do you need a fresh pair?

- Toss those worn-out insoles and upgrade them if needed.

- Stock up on moisture-wicking socks and breathable apparel. Spring running often requires layers!

- Pro Tip: Track your mileage. Most shoes have a lifespan of 400 to 500km before they need replacing. Not sure what you need? The team at Adventure365 is happy to help you find a new set of shoes to love!
