They did not sell me on the most expensive boot - they did the one that is best for my foot.

I've been skiing since I was 3 and loved that the sport is such a big part of my life. I bought new…read moreski boots back East 2 years ago and got shin bang for the first time ever. This January we came out to CO to ski and again my shins were in excruciating pain. I went to a boot fitter in Beaver Creek who said "the boot's not the problem, your body is the problem" ... I was about to give up the sport for good when a friend recommended Outdoor Divas. OMG - it was an amazing experience. Michael made me try on tons of boots. He was methodical in how he went about finding me the PERFECT boot. He explained everything, and spent time fixing even the tiniest little spots of discomfort. I put them on, skied that afternoon with ZERO PAIN. I was so happy I cried! I can race my 15 and 18 year old kiddos again. THANK YOU, Kim and Mike, for being absolutely THE BEST!!

I was also told it was covered by a 2 year warranty and 60 day return policy in the event it didn't stand up to the weather. Sounded good so I bought it. Wore it once - not even to ski; just to test it out on a cold, snowy day.  In less than 2 hours, the seams at the bottoms of the pants began to degrade and I was frozen.  It felt like it had no wind protection whatsoever.  I brought it back for a warranty claim to the Northface in Vail Village, Vail, Colorado (141 E Meadow Dr Ste 107, Vail, CO 81657), and Northface refused to accept the return, stating it doesn't stand behind its products once worn.  IT DOESN'T STAND BEHIND ITS PRODUCTS ONCE WORN????????? I was shocked.  This is supposed to be performance apparel for athletes.  If a ski outfit can't stand up to a short hike at the base of a mountain, how could you trust it to actually ski in?  Appalled Northface won't stand by its products.  Certainly, I will never shop with them again if this is the case.  The clerk was a young man and I am hoping he was mistaken - tried to contact corporate and they haven't responded. I'll update this if they do.  This outfit hasn't even been skied in.  If you are an athlete DO NOT BUY FROM NORTHFACE. They do not stand behind their apparel. If you just care about aesthetics, go crazy, but if you're actually hoping for athletic performance from this stuff, you'll be very disappointed.

Vail has its fair share of sport equipment rental shops but Vail Sports is conveniently located at…read morethe Lionshead Village entrance. For the summer months, visitors can rent a bike for any terrain. I wanted to see what the hype was about, so decided to try an e-bike. The bike was a very clean, class one e-bike suitable for biking/walking paths. The Bosch e-bike system was easy to use and allowed for quick change riding mode (manual, sport, turbo, etc) and being able to switch on the fly was a huge advantage when it came to riding the steep hills (going up both ways.....lol). The rental process is quick (especially since Epic Mountain has my profile) and the staff was really helpful, giving me a quick rundown on how to operate the bike. Rental rates are by half day (4 hours) or full day. Take note that folks can save 20% when reserving online versus in-store. The pricing is a little more expensive than if I had rented an e-bike thru our hotel, but Vail Sports has better maintained equipment. Rental prices do include a helmet and each bike has its own handlebar bag. I was able to ride thru the town, in the residential area and up/down Gore Creek Trail. The latter is a safe option when going between East and West Vail and does provide beautiful scenery. Upon returning the bike, the staff was also very friendly in answering my questions, helping me to decide whether or not I am going to invest in a purchase. I must say the pedal assist on some hills was a fantastic bonus to my ride. This was a great "touring" experience while visiting Vail and with the friendly and very knowledgeable staff, I would definitely recommend Vail Sports for all season equipment rental!

Thankfully, I stumbled across Performance Sports, and one of their awesome staffers, Bullitt who hooked me up with a nice deal on some great gear! This may seem small to some, but all their benches lift up for storage, which is a HUGE plus in my book. Now I don't have to stop at a locker to drop off my regular sneakers/boots...I can just leave my kicks right there in the rental shop. When I returned later that day, swapping skis for shoes was an easy process... I was walking out the door and off to some après ski pubs in no time!

If you're in Vail, this is a great location with friendly and helpful staff. Whether we were looking for sale or regular priced items, the staff was incredibly helpful. The store (and staff) are super dog friendly as well which was a bonus. This location isn't huge, but it has all the basics, seasonal, and popular items you would be looking for (especially if you're looking for something "mountain-appropriate"). It's definitely worth stopping by if you're looking for some extra layers to wear or just to check out some gear (and in our case, purchase a bunch of items we didn't plan on or really need, but really wanted after we saw them). :)

Both times the employees were condescending to my questions and curiosity about their products. I dealt with Alex - who was very cold and uninterested. I had to engage him and drive the whole convo as wasn't greeting anyone. And also dealt with a heavier set gentleman with glasses (wearing a polo shirt).. who was condescending and gave a know it all vibe. I asked him to try on a pair of boots, and he basically said no, and shut down the conversation. I took my business elsewhere and spent $2200 (including the same boots I wanted - and for $100 less). I would recommend either shopping with Ski Mountain All-Stars (Avon) or Vail Sports (next door) - both super friendly and actually have better prices for same items.
