Cross the state line and discover a gear shop built on purpose. Greensboro outdoor enthusiasts are finding their way to Moss Mountain Outfitters in Danville.
Greensboro may be a big city, but its outdoor community runs deep -- from the greenways threading through the Triad to the Uwharrie Mountains a short drive south.
Moss Mountain Outfitters in Danville, VA is just 45 minutes north on US-29 -- right across the state line -- and we offer something the big-box stores in Greensboro can't match: personalized service, a hand-curated selection of 37+ premium brands, and a mission that puts 100% of profits back into the community. Greensboro adventurers who discover Landon and Susan's store in the River District tend to become regulars.
While Greensboro has big-box options, we carry specialty brands like KUHL, prAna, Cotopaxi, Smartwool, and Big Agnes that are hard to find locally. Our selection is curated for people who actually use their gear on the trail.
Whether you're hiking Hanging Rock or backpacking the Mountains-to-Sea Trail, proper footwear matters. Our fitting specialists match you with Vasque, Oboz, or Danner boots tailored to your foot shape and hiking style.
Moss Mountain exists for the HUEF Foundation. 100% of profits support community programs. When Greensboro shoppers cross the border to buy gear, they're supporting Landon and Susan's family mission, not a corporate bottom line.
Danville's River District offers a completely different shopping experience from the Greensboro strip malls. Combine your gear run with lunch at a local restaurant and enjoy the charm of a revitalized downtown.
