Beyond; on the far side of.
Gear for the far side of the map.
Ayont is a small store for travel and outdoor kit. We stock what we'd pack ourselves: light, repairable, and plain enough to last more than one trip.

Three rules for the shelf
Light enough to carry all day
We weigh everything ourselves and publish our number, not the one on the label.
Repairable in the field
If a buckle, zip or pole can't be swapped with basic tools, we don't stock it.
Used before it's sold
Each product gets at least one real trip from us before it goes in the range.
