(From the 1/30/21 Air Date):  Beaty Jackson has worked in the outdoor business for over 40-years.  He knew that was what he wanted to do after an extended hike on the Appalachian Trail.  Since then he has worked within manufacturing, outfitting & sales & has learned that the gear and equipment involved are more than just items:  they represent memories and experiences.
Gear Aid is a company he represents that helps prolong the life of equipment.  Tent & Boot repairs, reviving outerwear's waterproofing & fixing zippers are just some of the many solutions their products provide.
Jackson shares his ethos & knowledge in helping make our gear last longer.
