    Company Description

    About us! Since 1958, Peter Glenn Ski & Sports has been at the forefront of a growing outdoor sports market helping outdoor enthusiasts conveniently find the gear they need in one location. As a ski coach Ned Hamilton noticed a high demand for ski equipment that was not being met by local shops and merchants. Ned, the proprietor of a men's clothing shop, stocked the basement of his store with ski clothing and equipment. Quickly he realized it was a success, with customers finally having a simple solution for all their gear needs. As this new department flourished, he opened his first shop named after his son, Peter Glenn Hamilton. Over 60 years and ten stores later, Peter Glenn Ski & Sports leads the market in outdoor adventure sports. From the latest HEAD Ski to quality hiking boots from The North Face, you'll find just what you're looking for.
