Hi there!
I’m Ian, a divemaster, adventure outfitter and the founder of Revel Outfitting. I’ve spent the better part of the past decade helping people get outside and chase their greatest adventures.
I started Revel Outfitting because I was frustrated with the overwhelming amount of lousy gear resources found online. As a former expedition manager for National Geographic, it pained me to see how much my friends were overpaying for their jackets, packs, and outdoor equipment. Having saved hundred of thousands of dollars for expeditions around the world, I thought it was only right to share the knowledge I’ve accumulated over my career with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.
I have one goal here at Revel Outfitting - to help you choose the gear you need and save money on your next adventure.
Working with Ian was an absolute pleasure and eliminated the stress of learning about a somewhat daunting industry. His knowledge of the outdoors and passion to get you out there and enjoying it is contagious. He helped identify the best inflatable kayak and gear options for our needs. Something affordable, lightweight, portable, and small enough to store in our downtown apartment closet! We now have the flexibility paddle along any body of water we come across on our frequent road trips. If you have any questions about outfitting or adventure, Ian is your guy!” - Dan D. (Seattle, WA)

I’m a solo female traveler, but have never camped alone on BLM land before! Intimidated and intrigued by this idea, I contacted Ian at Revel Outfitting for some professional guidance. Ian was quick to gather necessary info about my ideal getaway, and propose some awesome ideas I wouldn’t have thought of on my own. Revel Outfitting prepared me for and delivered options for a truly memorable adventure! I was able to find the perfect, private campsite with a beautiful view and plenty of space to enjoy nature. Thank you for making my getaway more than I hoped for Ian & Revel Outfitting!
