The Alpine Accessories story
1993, It all started as a ski
accessory mail order catalog named Snoski. Offices and storage
were located in the basement and
garage of the owners home.
1995, Began our first web site called Sno-ski.com which offered the
same products we had in our catalog.
1996, On-line sales out did catalog sales so our catalogs were
discontinued and the web site improved.
1997- 1999, Saw a big increase in our product selection and included snowboarding
and other winter accessories.
2000, Changed our name to Alpine
Accessories which better reflected our product selection of winter
accessories.
2003, Opened our first retail store.
2004, Store traffic was great and our customers
were asking for more product selection.
2005, Moved into a larger store and our current location. We increased
our product selection to include equipment, more apparel and added service and
rentals. Alpine Accessories became the first new specialty ski/snowboard shop to open in
Chicagoland in over 15
years!
2007, Extensive remodeling was done to our
store over the summer to accommodate more products, equipment and clothing.
2009, To be determined.
