Alps & Meters was founded with a mission to uphold the classic traditions of alpine sport. A mode of winter transportation turned mountain recreation, the centuries old activity of skiing commands a rich legacy of memories and stories the world over. Passed from generation to generation this activity and its album of alpine experiences have been woven to create a tapestry of timeless tradition that continues today in bastions of skiing’s origins such as St. Moritz, Aspen, Chamonix, Sun Valley, Vail, Zermatt, Courchevel, Jackson Hole, Soelden, and Park City. One of a kind destinations all, such resorts of the late 19thand early 20thcenturies were then populated with equally handsome wardrobes that combined the high street fashions of the day with novel elements of protection. Full of originality, nostalgia, and crafted from tried & true old world fibers and fabrics, the garments of skiing’s era of inception exuded an exquisite expression of high taste form & function. As much an expression of its time-honored values as it is a commitment to long-forgotten quality, Alps & Meters’ Originals Collections houses the brand’s very first products of traditional alpine sportswear. Classic, tailored & technical, and evoking the romance of alpine sport’s past, Alps & Meters’ Originals capture the essence of the brand’s identity and convictions packaged within products of exceptional care & workmanship.
Channeling the intrepid spirit of the Golden Age of Alpinism and the original Mothers & Fathers of ski mountaineering, Alps & Meters' Ascent Collection celebrates the first summits of the past and the climbs of tomorrow.
