Spent a few Bob in here recently. Great place to look for D of E kit.
Seems a bit pricey. Usual selection of anoraks etc. Central location.

Good range of everything for the outdoors. Well located near Truro centre though parking is about five minutes away. It's generally true that you get what you pay for and the quality is good. There may be some good buys but everything I went to look for was full retail. However, they do have some brands such as Scarpa boots, you won't find in stores that only do their own brand. If you have the money you'll find good quality and, long term, that can prove good value.
Great place to go if you need to actually try on kit rather than just ordering it online.

New management with spar branded. Recommended
Funny little shop that has a limited range and - for a convenience store - limited opening times
Halfords
St Austell St, Truro TR1 1SE, UK – 01872 260492
Busy store on the quiet - staff helpful.
I popped in on the off-chance when a headlight blew. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. My car is a real pain in the rear end for headlight's, its a tricky fitting, but they were great about doing it.
