ACG - All Conditions Gear - ie. Niche Nike

“The ACG philosophy works in harmony with nature. Earth is not something to conquer or tame, but a place to have fun. The only thing left to do is to get out there. We’re Still on Earth. Let’s go.”

“We looked to Smith Rock to inspire us and came back with the light and durable Nike ACG 'Smith Summit' Cargo Trousers. They've got a loose feel and zip-off design that lets you convert them into shorts when the weather gets too hot. Plenty of pockets keep your gear close, while an included carabiner lets you latch your keys.”

Why do we do used gear?

  • sustainability

    Buying used gives perfectly good gear a second life, reduces waste, and encourages a circular economy.

  • affordability

    It allows people to purchase high-quality items at a fraction of the original cost.

  • community

    The consignment business model fosters local engagement and supports individuals.

the story

The West Hump story begins with a girl’s lifelong obsession with finding second-hand treasures and a heart that beats for the environment. The multi-generational entrepreneurial spirit that runs through my veins led me to discover a niche waiting to be filled in Port Alberni - a gear shop that would not only cater to adventurers of all kinds but also promote sustainable practices and a strong sense of community. 

With all my love,
