Origines specializes in 'deportes extremos' and definitely has the biggest offer on mountaineering equipment, mostly imported.
Representaciones is more of a general sports shop but has all you need for mountaineering, especially during the winter season.
Most of their stuff is Mexican made and therefore a lot cheaper but still good quality.
Jamboree is a scouts shop and has everything for outdoor camping (less for mountaineering though).
