About this user

Sport Chalet is a leader in the specialty sporting goods arena. With stores in Arizona, California, Nevada and Utah, Sport Chalet is renowned for providing a level of service that is unparalleled in the retail sporting goods industry. Our dynamic team strives to enhance the customer's shopping experience, and is driven not to be the biggest, but the best.

On April 1,1959, a young man named Norbert Olberz heard about a little ski shop for sale. It was located in a town called La Cañada, just north of Los Angeles, California. Norbert and his new wife, Irene, plunked down all of their savings and set up shop in 10,000 square feet. During the first year, Norbert and Irene slept in the back of the ski shop, taking showers at night with a garden hose through their back screen door, and cooking meals on an old camp stove.

Norbert's vision was to create a friendly place for customers to shop for high quality brands and equipment, and to provide an avenue for customers to have their existing gear repaired and maintained. He knew customers would have many questions that needed to be answered, and he wanted true experts to provide them with the answers.

From the beginning, Norbert was a pioneer. On a beautiful Summer day, a customer ventured into his store and began to speak to Norbert about the opportunities in SCUBA. Months later, Sport Chalet became one of the first sporting goods retailers to carry SCUBA equipment. This was a huge leap of faith given the store was at the base of the Angeles mountains with the Pacific Ocean over an hour away. Moving forward, he then made the decision to be one of the first sporting goods retailers to offer a wide variety of equipment for the then-obscure sports of rock climbing, backpacking and mountaineering - at the time only available in catalogues.

Now, a typical Sport Chalet boasts 45,000 square feet of premium sporting goods equipment, apparel, and footwear. Each store features a collection of specialty shops offering brand name apparel and equipment for beginners to experts. These shops include traditional sporting goods like golf, tennis, biking, fitness, in-line skates, baseball, and athletic footwear along with non-traditional sporting goods merchandise such as mountaineering, scuba, skiing, snowboarding, wakeboarding, and ocean kayaking.

Remaining true to Norbert's original vision, each department is staffed with well-trained, knowledgeable sales associates with extensive experience, eager to share their knowledge and experience with customers.
