Narrowing it down

First, find out if the person you have in mind is a boulderer or climbs on a rope, as both disciplines need different kit. A rope climber won’t use a chalk bucket intended for bouldering, for example, they’d use a chalk bag with a waist strap instead.

We don't recommend buying safety equipment like helmets and harnesses, as they must fit correctly for safety. So unless you’re 100% sure of their size, it's best to avoid these. 

Once you’ve found their favourite type of climbing, you can narrow down your choice of gift.  We’ve created some tailored collections below that’ll help you choose the perfect gift and give you some ideas for climbing stocking fillers!
