“The Sportsman’s Guide is pleased to offer our loyal customers a customized, mobile Web shopping experience, providing easy access and an exceptional shopping experience,” said Jay Berlin, CEO of The Sportsman’s Guide®.  “Rich product images, top sellers, special deals, shop by brand, shop by category and a complete site search are just some of the features that will entice sports enthusiasts to download these apps and shop online, anytime, 24/7.”  

The new applications, powered by Digby, are available for users to download “free” from Apple’s iTunes or the App Store on the iPad. Simply enter search terms “sportsmansguide” or “The Sportsman’s Guide,” download, and in seconds gain access to a broad selection of outdoor gear and clothing.  The Sportsman’s Guide® will be releasing Android and Blackberry apps in the near future.
