Waterstone Outdoors has been on lead in the outdoor recreation space since 1994 - selling high-quality outdoor gear and apparel, and offering advice and inspiration for folks seeking challenge in the outdoors. We are a humble home-town operation with a national reputation and a history of pioneering climbing in the New River Gorge. We’re here to harness the power of the outdoors to support our community, expand access to the outdoors and create economic impact.
Our shop is staffed by a top-notch group of climbers, hikers, runners and outdoor enthusiasts who are friendly, fun and full of information. No “too-cool-for-school” attitude here! Quality gear and friendly advice. That has been our motto since we opened and almost thirty years later - that is still at the core of everything we do.
