I'm playing HZD yet again and just finished the proving. You definitely don't lose your gear. Even if you're separated from it, it's extremely brief before you grab it again.
Random helpful tip: each vendor has a free reward box you can buy. There is no limit to how many you can carry (I've had 15+ pages of them). Later on it's a good place to leave emergency resources since it doesn't take up inventory space. I leave the ridgewood and wire in them in case I run out at a bad time.
I really hope you enjoy the game. It's probably my favorite from the last 10 years. It can be a slow burn for some people, but the story revelations hit hard. You also feel like a badass when you master the combat.
