Not really "outdoor gear", but these cabinets would be great to store all of your outdoor gear in your garage or shed. My father is retiring and they are his office cabinets. Four foot tall and stackable(thus 8'), laminated wood, adjustable shelves every four inches if needed. I don't need them and he needs to get rid of them........cheap. They would be great for you or your wife's stuff. They are at his office in Bellevue, stop by and take a look-see. He also has other "office" type things, too.
