About the Business
Welcome to Paddy Pallin, located in the heart of Katoomba on Katoomba Street. Our establishment is not just a store, but a point of interest for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers alike. With a rich history dating back almost a century, Paddy Pallin has become synonymous with high-quality, lightweight equipment and clothing for bushwalkers, trekkers, and travelers.
It all began when a young bushwalker, dissatisfied with the limited and heavy equipment available, decided to design and make his own. Word quickly spread about the exceptional quality and functionality of Paddy Pallin's creations, and soon fellow bushwalkers were clamoring for his lightweight rucksacks, tents, and sleeping bags.
In response to the growing demand, Paddy Pallin opened his first store in Sydney in the early 1930s. To cater to the entire Australian market, he appointed agents in each state and even offered a mail-order service. This dedication to meeting the needs of outdoor enthusiasts propelled Paddy Pallin to become a trusted name in the industry.
The backpacking travel boom of the 1960s brought about a whole new market for Paddy Pallin. To meet this demand, the company opened more stores across the country, ensuring that adventurers everywhere had access to their top-of-the-line products. With a focus on sourcing from leading manufacturers, Paddy Pallin continues to provide the highest quality and most advanced equipment and clothing.
In the mid-1980s, Paddy Pallin expanded their range even further by introducing Adventure Travel Clothing. This groundbreaking line offered durable, lightweight, and easy-care specialist clothing to the Australian market for the first time. This commitment to innovation and meeting the needs of outdoor enthusiasts has allowed Paddy Pallin to set the standard in the industry.
At Paddy Pallin, we also recognize and respect the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the custodians of the lands on which we live, work, and play. We pay our respects to Elders, both past and present, acknowledging their ongoing connection to the land.
Whether you're embarking on a multi-day hike, planning a trek through the wilderness, or simply seeking high-quality outdoor gear, Paddy Pallin is your go-to destination. Visit us at 190 Katoomba Street and discover why Paddy Pallin has been the choice of adventurers for nearly a century.

Reviews
"Amazing service and great products. Hannah and Lauren sorted us out with the latest specials for some winter gear, cheers!"
"One star is far too generous. The staff member who I was seeking service from walked away from me a moment after I started to talk to her about my needs. All I got to say was ‘ I’m looking to buy some walking shoes’ - she turned her back with no comment or engagement and walked away. I felt totally ignored. No way would I buy any product from a store that treats its customers with such rudeness."
"Smaller shop but another one up the road has more, different gear. Very helpful service, pays to be a club member for discounts."
"It's the 2nd time for me buying gear from this awesome store and I am absolutely happy with the purchases I made. I will go there more often. The Paddy Pallin gear store is well sorted and there are always great offers for absolutely top quality items. I was consulted absolutely friendly and with a smile. Honestly 5 Stars well deserved."
