Editor's note

Built for the brands that build snowboarding

At the heart of what we do is a simple belief: snowboard shops come first. Not as an afterthought, not as a distribution channel, but as the core of the culture. We're here to build something real, alongside the brands and people who see it the same way. That means showing up for each other, making decisions that strengthen the shops carrying our products, and growing in a way that lifts everyone up. When the right brands and the right retailers are aligned, the whole community wins... and that's the kind of growth worth working towards.

Every brand below passed the same test: built by people who ride, made well enough to last past the season, and small enough that we can answer the phone when a shop has a question. If a brand stops meeting any of those, it stops being on this page.

Why we carry it

Thirty years of fit obsession.

The love of snowboarding—it’s as simple as that. Whether you spend your days lapping the local rope tow, sessioning the streets, or skinning into the unknown, this passion unites and defines us. And since the beginning, it’s served as our foundation. After all, DEELUXE is driven by a tight-knit crew of dedicated riders.

At DEELUXE, we’re committed to enhancing your time on the snow. That’s why we work relentlessly to build the best boots for every riding style and type of terrain. Inspired and original, these boots deliver the comfort and performance you need—be it on the bunny hill, in the park, or during a first descent. No matter how or where you ride, we’re right with you, sharing every high five and pow slash that shapes your journey.

We carry Deeluxe because boots are the hardest piece of hardgoods to get right and they keep getting better and better. The same people making some of the best fitting boots on the planet for 30 years. New technology and fit systems have upped the ante, making Deeluxe a problem for everyone else.

Why we carry it

Outerwear with style, made for real snow.

NOMADIK represents a mindset — one that isn’t bound by place, convention, or rules, but is constantly evolving.

We travel the world in pursuit of creating new styles.

From snowboarders and skaters to musicians and artists, we collaborate with a global community driven by hunger and originality. Through NOMADIK, we aim to shape and inspire new scenes.

We carry Nomadik because the technical outerwear category has gotten loud, and Nomadik refuses to. Quiet branding, deliberate pattern-making, and on point styling make this outerwear fashionable while backing it up with technical fabrics.

Why we carry it

A QUALITY SNOWBOARD EVERY RIDER EXPECTS AND DESERVES

SLASH has a natural presence in snowboarding. It is elementary to a skillful approach. It is to navigate with power and style. Here the laws of nature rule in the action of the riders.

From early on in my pro career I have always had an interest and fortunately an opportunity to design the boards I rode. From the artwork to the technologies and construction techniques, the very essence of my boards has been about creating a medium that expresses personality.

SLASH IS A PLATFORM DEDICATED TO PROGRESSION, INDIVIDUALITY AND STANDARDS.

Through Slash we facilitate the highest demands of quality through a quiver of boards designed for a variety of conditions.

Reset your path; surprise yourself with the gift of being present, trusting every moment will happen as it’s supposed to.— GiGi Rüf, Slash

What makes the cut

How we pick a line.

01

Built by riders

Founders on the mountain. If the line sheet doesn't reflect what they actually ride, we don't carry it.

02

Limited distribution

Geographic exclusivity protects the brand, the shop, and the price floor. We don't compete with our retailers.

03

Direct from source

Every account here traces back to a relationship, a moment together doing what we love. No middlemen, no shifting contacts each season.

04

Made to last

We stand behind the quality of products made by our brand partners, we trust them because they make stuff they use themselves all season long.
