Elan is an absolute legend. Fulfilled my requests to the letter, super kind, funny and an all around good guy! I was apprehensive about buying from here, as the last time I visited the gentleman who served me was passive aggressive, and didn't seem interested in engaging. Glad I came back, and would come back again for Elan!!

Fantastic gem tucked away in Canton! I struggle with finding shoes that fit and as soon as I walked in I felt very welcome here! Chris endured a long while with me helping me to find the perfect fit of walking boot and I left feeling genuinely happy with my purchase. He’s a fountain of knowledge and I’ll definitely be returning here for my future outdoor needs. Looking forward to wearing this pair to the ground so I can come back for another!

Old school style shop that caters towards the outdoors type of person. First time I parked outside I felt really disappointed, it looked tiny from the front. But it is an Aladdin's cave in there. The shop goes right back. So many different things in there, you can spends ages in there. The shop is a bit rugged and slightly chaotic in it's set-up but done in such a way it does have a charm about it that is quite endearing. Finding the prices of things can be difficult though, as everything is on printed paper. Either as a whole sheet or cut up labels. Not always near the item it's referring to. So it feels like a game of Cluedo trying to match the item to a price list. This could definitely be improved. Shop assistants always about and ready to help which is a massive bonus. Super duper helpful with climbing stuff and I would absolutely recommend. It is pricey there but you are paying for the service they render and that does feel valuable.

I randomly walked past the store and happened to glance inside. Saw it was an outdoor shop so went in for a nose. Best decision ever! I've been researching a drysuit and PFD for a couple of months from my sofa, online. I went upstairs in the store and spent half an hour with El - he's a lovely gent with untold knowledge on kayaking. He is also incredibly patient and as a result I just blew nearly a grand on a top of the range drysuit and PFD. I can't get the grin off my face. Cannot recommend this place (and the staff, El in particular) highly enough!

For a year we have been planning a little trip to Up and Under from our home in Somerset and today we finally made it. We wanted to get kitted up for any weather …… what a great shop with super helpful and friendly staff too - well worth the trip to Cardiff …… and pup-friendly too - Jess enjoyed finding the hidden toys around the shop while we chose our new gear!
