Great kit & engaging company/staff. Only sell quality, and at a reasonable price. May initially look to be a buck or two more expensive, but given their $99 free shipping rates, you’ll end up bette... See more

The ridge pole of my Moondance tent no longer screwed into the hubs--a stripped thread at both ends I guess. A gratis pair of replacement hubs with an improved design arrived almost immediately after... See more

All equipment I have bought for the last 25 years from Mont has been of excellent quality and made for Australian conditions. I back country ski and hike mostly on the east coast of Australia and Tas... See more

Written by the company

Mont Adventure Equipment is an independent Australian company founded in Canberra in 1981. We're serious gear users and stand by our product. After years of frustrations with the poor quality of adventure clothing and equipment available, Monty had enough and made something better, something he could rely on. In 1978, using a borrowed sewing machine, he made himself a sleeping bag, down jacket and tent. Friends were impressed by his creations, and commissioned pieces. A reputation for quality gear quickly spread and in 1981 Mont Adventure Equipment was founded. While Mont has long since outgrown Monty's small unit in Canberra, Australia, he still directs the company and works closely with a passionate team on the design and testing of all Mont products. As dedicated adventurers ourselves, quality is never compromised just to save a few cents. To this day Mont Adventure Equipment is still privately owned, based in Canberra, fiercely independent and totally committed to better gear for the wild. If you'd like to learn more about Mont or need assistance in selecting the right gear for your adventure please do not hesitate to contact the Mont Customer Service team.

Great Bad Weather Coat

Great bad weather coat. Longer length is perfect for really wet conditions. Very breathable, but keeps the wind out beautifully.
Only concern for me was the shaping of the hood. Would have preferred a naturally smaller and shaped hood rather than have to operate draw strings and a velcro tag to adjust it when the hood is being used.
That being said, a top quality coat and I am very happy with it.

Mont Moondance for my AAWT - 5 Stars

After recently completing my Advanced Hiking Course with Australian Alps Trek Support (AATS) in Mansfield, I was really impressed with the demonstration and performance review offered by the instructors of the Moondance Tent ( especially that part of the snow gum trunk damage!). I decided to invest in a Moondance 1P for my hike with friends on the AAWT supported by AATS ( same guys who do Larapinta Trail Trek Support) and it was the perfect tent. I also used it on the Larapinta last few weeks. The service at Mont was great. They were knowledgeable and really into the Mont gear (as they should!). And that's the thing. Mont is an Australian company making exceptional great products and yet so many hikers don't know about them. I only knew about the Moondance tent and other gear only after seeing the AATS instructors using it on the course. If you can go to the Canberra store, its well worth the effort.

My jacket has a nice soft feel and is well made. I particularly like the extra length which comes down to my thighs. I am a big man and in between sizes and, I found the staff very helpful in finding the right fit. I would buy again and recommend it to others

I bought a large size Ultralight bushwalking jacket to replace a Paddy Pallin 1990's goretex weighing twice the new one. I'm a medium but the large fits a thick fibrepile and puffer under, for Tassie winters. Sleeves are big enough to fit ski gloves in.

Lost my 8 year old tent fly on the weekend. Even though the design has changed, Mont found a spare and shipped it the same day I made the enquiry.
The gear is excellent quality and so is the after sales service.

Replacement pole on Mont tent

I purchased a Mont tent a couple of years ago. A section of the pole broke in extreme conditions. The pole section was replaced promptly free of charge. The service to replace the correct pole section was excellent and the free of cost was unexpected. I was therefore very pleased with the outcome.

Got myself a Dragonfly Tent

Got myself a Dragonfly Tent. Attention to detail and quality is fantastic. You can tell Mont’s designs are rooted in real world use cases, not some fly by night internet marketing company. Pretty much a customer for life.
