Bought a pair of bots from Alpine Hut, and I couldn't be happier with the boots and service. I bought them over the phone and they mailed them the same day. Sarah was incredibly helpful and prompt. Ill definitely buy from them again.

Went in earlier today and got my first pair of new ski boots. Greg was very patient, answered all my questions, and helped me try on quite a few pairs. Very grateful for his insight and professionalism. I will definitely be going back in the future for more service.
