About us
Our mission is to equip you with the most durable, well-designed goods through an unequaled online experience.
What We Believe In
-
Form that functions
The primacy of functional design, for us, means everything needs to serve a purpose. That functional precision also dictates the products we carry and drives us to provide the easiest shopping experience ever.
-
Aesthetic vision
We showcase the highest aesthetic standards and strive to make all our products sing by carefully curating collections, designing refined experiences, and creating relevant, enriching content. We believe that aesthetics can make us happier.
-
Human touch
Making every step of your shopping journey as personal as possible, and offering best-in-class advice about premium gear and technical apparel, can make it feel like you've arrived at the biggest little shop online, whether you're new to the outdoors or a hardcore adventurer.
-
Responsible living
Living harmoniously with nature, promoting equality, and championing diversity are our cornerstones. Giving to non-profits with an outdoor view of the world is an always-growing habit. Featuring these brands, working with people who embody these values, striving to lower our environmental footprint, and educating customers - we can change things for the better, together. Since our foundation, we've made over $850,000 monetary and in-kind donations to organisations that help people in need, through mental health programs, homeless shelters, preserving and protecting the outdoors, or including youth and the BIPOC community in the outdoors.
Our first-ever Impact Report is now available. Learn about our holistic journey towards responsible business, celebrating our environmental and social achievements and future endeavours.
Our story
Altitude Sports was born when the love of the outdoors met Montreal’s flair. From a single storefront, it has grown into a haven for those who value comfort and style. Co-CEO's Alex Guimond and Max Dubois are more than just owners: they are longtime friends, passionate outdoorsmen and technical apparel afficionados. At heart, they're entrepreneurs, and in true entrepreneurial spirit, they built Altitude Sports by responding to and anticipating their growing clientele's needs and desires.

Our team
We are a business with the outdoors at its core. From the beginning, our employees have been gear junkies and thrill seekers. We’ve grown into a place that combines people with different tastes, trends and talents, from fashion followers to tech savants to outdoor lovers. The people at Alti share a camaraderie and a connection to our original friendly, open-minded, outdoor DNA. Work well done and success takes sweat equity, and are celebrated - but maintaining a healthy work-life balance is just as important.
