Alpine Guide Sweater High West

A staple of alpine sportsmen throughout the world, the protection, comfort, and durability of a proper sweater has accompanied mountain guides since the first ascents and descents by the Scandinavians of the 19th century.  Combining the engineered comfort of traditional woolen knitwear with the protective qualities of rich wide wale corduroy the High West Alpine Guide Sweater is an authentic ski pays homage to the founding of Wester Resort skiing in the United States.  With deference and respect for legends such as Pete Siebret, Whip Jones, and Dick Durrance who became the fathers of such storied destinations such as Vail and Aspen Highlands, this timeless knitwear garment is as sturdy & rugged as the cowboys who pioneered the Rocky Mountain boom of U.S. winter recreation during the 1950, 60s, and 70s.
