I was really excited to purchase a merino wool pullover from East Slope Outfitters in Big Sky Town…read moreCenter. It was performing well, so I went back the next day and purchased a second one. Unfortunately, the first pullover started developing pulls almost immediately. One particularly long pull in the front snagged on something as minor as my cuticle--something that shouldn't even be possible. I also noticed additional pulls on the back, even though I had been careful with it. When I went into the store to discuss the issue, an employee was empathetic and directed me to the manager. However, the manager--a brunette helping a customer with ski goggles--was completely dismissive. When I explained the situation, she responded with, "Oh, it must have pulled on something." I acknowledged that it caught on my nail, but I was shocked that such an expensive pullover would be so fragile. Rather than offering any assistance or even engaging in a conversation about product quality, she quickly shut it down, saying they couldn't do anything since I had already had it for a few days. For a store selling high-end outdoor gear, I expected better durability and customer support. Spending around $130, I at least hoped for a discussion about quality assurance or a possible exchange. Instead, I was met with indifference. It felt like they cater more to tourists passing through than to customers who actually care about their purchases. If you're looking for durable gear from a store that stands behind its products, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

Taylor put some foam things on the shins to make it more comfortable but it still wasn't so he got me a different boot that had pressure in different places and felt better. Ashley helped me with the skis for this new boot. Very appreciative of the attention and kindness of the staff at this location. :)

He offered a helmet to a fellow renter for FREE when they found out we were struggling college kids because safety is most important. The best service I've ever received, and they even went out of their way to help me get gear from an alternate location as well as drive me back to my cabin close to the mountain (Big Horn near Big Sky) because I had no shoes after returning my rentals! A plus - got to cuddle the driver's puppy en route to my cabin. Best last day of skiing for me on my trip. Pricing is reasonable because the gear is amazing, top-of-the-line. Purchase the damage insurance for sure. Nice people all around, and they answered all my questions on best runs on the mountain.

Sure wish I could leave zero stars. Where to begin…read more First, when you are paying for a "butler" ski rental service, you would expect that upon providing rider information as requested by the company, it would provide clients with the setup appropriate for their specific parameters. Nope. Instead, my wife got a board that was the wrong size, with missing binding screws, and bindings that didn't even fit the board or the boots she was provided. It took three separate visits to resolve, wasting multiple days on the hill. Second, given the above errors, you would expect the problem to be resolved quickly and professionally. Also nope. Instead, my wife was told "maybe your husband has the right screwdriver." I generally don't travel with a set of Phillips heads, obviously. Then, when a rude and unprofessional manager named Vanessa came by to deal with the problem, my wife asked what the solution might be for her being set up with a board that -- according to this same manager -- was inappropriate. Vanessa's helpful response was to suggest that we "buy your own rig." We were also told that snowboards are sized solely based on weight, without regard to foot size, which is of course absurd in addition to being wholly incorrect. In short, this is a ski rental business that suggests its clients buy their own equipment when they are called out for failing to provide the right gear. That should tell you everything you need to know.
