Outdoor Hardware (footwear, climbing equipment). Software (clothing, apparel). Accessories (gloves, hats, goggles, everything that does not fall into the categories above). Fresh Brand – this category is open only to new brands or first time exhibitors at the show. Eco Award – for brands that show particularly environmentally friendly credentials.
