The bargain gear-mongers at LeftLane Sports are running two sales on excellent gear right now, with a third planned for this Friday.

Currently, they’ve got a collection of mostly low-top Vasque trail-runners on sale for about 50% off, and a collection of Mountain Hardwear clothing including jackets, shorts, hats and more with the same discounts. Longtime readers know my love of Vasque footwear – and while I prefer the hightop boots on the trail, I have yet to put my feet in a bad pair of Vasques. If you’re more the low-top, trail-running type you might want to check out their inventory. And I’ve almost always taken Mountain Hardwear clothes with me when I go backpacking – I’m especially a fan of their lightweight warm hats.

If you’re in the market for some camping gear, set your calendar reminders for Friday, when LeftLane will host a Kelty Sale of tents, sleeping bags, and packs.

As always, these sales are limited time-offers, good until a certain date or until they run out of stock.
