What Our Distribution Partners Say
“We started stocking GearTOP last spring with the app bundle. It completely changed the conversation with customers — instead of selling a hat, we are selling a complete outdoor safety solution. Sell-through is up 40%.”
“Our marina customers ask about the UV app before they even look at the hat specs. The app sells the hat. It is that simple.”
