Barmaee is a new outdoor sports shop that opened up recently. I found out about it by chance since it’s near my garage where I’m getting my Datsun restored and I kept noticing kayaks and paddleboards through the display window so I decided to stop and check the place out.
The store is fairly cute and clearly being run by someone who’s an outdoorsman but the physical store really is just a small display area, their real store is online where they carry so many great brands including YETI, Thule, Marmon, Osprey, Salomon, Black Diamond, Shimano, and many many more. It’s actually pretty insane how much cool stuff they have on their website. They describe themselves as the Middle East’s largest outdoors store and I believe their website could very well be that since I haven’t come across anything like it in the region. (UPDATE: Turns out it’s not true! Read the update below)
The only confusing part is that their physical store is called Barmaee while their online shop is called Just Outdoors. I don’t know why that is, maybe because the physical store doesn’t carry many items but it just confuses things.
If you’re looking for outdoor gear definitely check these guys out. Their instagram accounts are @barmaee.q8 and @justoudoorscom, while the website is justoutdoors.com
Update: So it looks like the whole thing is misleading and not true. They aren’t the largest outdoor store in the region because they don’t have any of the items listed on their website. Their website is just an affiliate store for a US website so everything needs to be shipped from the US store to Kuwait. It’s similar to websites like uBuy and Desertcart which are just affiliate stores for Amazon. Disappointing.

Where exactly is the physical store? Neither the website or the instagram seems to mention the physical location.
I didn’t link to it so people don’t go there and get disappointed since they don’t really have much on display at their physical store. But, if you do want to pass by it’s here https://goo.gl/maps/afwJbDeUiwUCQVhg7
their website is mostly like a drop ship portal.
Hi most of the outdoor stores in the region doesn’t stock everything especially since there is variety in brands. Justoutdoors is an e-commerce platform that gives one destination shop for all outdoor items which it think was amazing because not only were aware of the existence of some them and learned so much before my trip to Oman but also the products are hard to find for serious people like me when I went climbing in France
Barmaee is a store for Kayaks, sail boats scuba diving and a few other stuff. Useful here.
