Daily ski rentals at The Alpineer cover just about any kind of ski day, from a first time clicking into bindings to a week of chasing turns with friends. Packages range from beginner-friendly setups to sport, premium, and demo gear, and full packages come with skis, boots, and poles; if you already have boots you love, we also offer select ski-only setups with skis and poles. Our rental technicians fit everything to your size and ability, so the gear underfoot suits the skier using it rather than the other way around. Booking ahead is the easy win here: reserve your daily ski rentals at least 24 hours in advance and you'll save 20%, and your gear can be ready for pickup as early as 3 p.m. the day before you ski. Kids' rentals are free with a qualifying adult rental through our Kids Rent Free program. Walk-ins are welcome too, subject to what's available.
Tell us what kind of riding you have planned and we'll match you with a daily snowboard rental that fits.

Our rental technicians size and adjust everything for the rider's build and experience, which makes a real difference on a first day and on a fiftieth. Free rentals for kids come with a qualifying adult rental through the Kids Rent Free program, so a family can get everyone outfitted in one stop.

Boot Fitting in Crested Butte, CO
Every fitting we do is shaped around the foot in front of us — its width, its arch, its quirks. We mold shells and liners, stretch or grind where a boot needs room, make on-the-spot adjustments, and build custom footbeds that stabilize the foot, support comfort and control, and help cut down on fatigue and arch pain. A boot that fits properly gives you better control and lets you stop thinking about your feet altogether. No appointment is needed. With qualifying boots and a custom footbed purchased from us, the Signature Boot Fit Guarantee keeps that support going through the end of the following winter season. Learn more in our boot fitting details.

Bikes for Sale & Custom Bikes in Crested Butte, CO
Finding the right bike usually comes down to how and where you want to ride, and that's where a real conversation helps. Some riders are looking for an electric bike that makes longer climbs or around-town miles more enjoyable, while others want a mountain bike for trail days or a road bike that feels quick and efficient on longer routes. We can talk through frame style, fit, suspension needs, ride feel, and budget so the options start to make sense instead of blending together. If you're interested in a more dialed setup, The Alpineer also offers guided custom bike ordering from brands including Trek, Specialized, and Santa Cruz, with support around sizing, components, and build preferences. Stop by to talk it through, call us with questions, or browse online first if you want to narrow things down before you come in.

Some people come in knowing exactly what they need, and plenty of others just know something feels missing from their setup. That's a normal place to start.
