Get in Gear is an edited guide to useful, well-made gear. Some of the links on this site are affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission if you buy something through them.

This does not cost you anything extra.

Affiliate income helps support the site and allows us to keep writing independent guides, reviews and recommendations.

How affiliate links work

When you click on certain links to retailers or brands, Get in Gear may receive a small commission if you make a purchase.

This might apply to links in:

• Product reviews
  
• Buying guides
  
• Gift guides
  
• Newsletter features
  
• Seasonal edits
  
• Blog posts
  

Does this affect what we recommend?

No.

Products are selected because we believe they are useful, relevant and worth knowing about. We do not include products simply because they offer commission.

Sometimes we may earn from a link. Sometimes we may not. The aim is always the same: to help readers make better choices and avoid buying things that do not earn their place.

How we choose products

We ask whether a product is:

• Useful
  
• Well-made
  
• Good value for its purpose
  
• Relevant to real daily life
  
• Better than obvious alternatives
  
• Likely to be used, not just bought
  

Some products are tested hands-on. Some are included based on research, expert input, long-term reputation, reader relevance or personal experience. Where a recommendation is based on direct use, we will aim to make that clear.

Amazon links

As an Amazon Associate, Get in Gear earns from qualifying purchases.

Sponsored content

From time to time, Get in Gear may publish sponsored content or paid partnerships. These will be clearly labelled.

Sponsored content does not mean automatic endorsement. We only work with brands that feel relevant to the site and useful to our readers.
