The one-stop shop for life in the city and the outdoors

Altitude Sports was born from a simple belief: Life is better when you spend more time outside. From our home in Montreal’s Mile End, we’ve spent decades building a hub where performance gear, modern design, and a love of exploration intertwine.

We exist for those who run before sunrise, bike through the city, hike on weekends, or seek a deeper connection to the world around them, even as they take a detour through the city park, because the outdoors isn’t somewhere we drive hours to reach—it’s right outside our door. We’re here to outfit every version of adventure.

As an online retailer, we can focus more on providing the best curated gear from the brands we know and trust: technical, responsibly made, and designed with contemporaneity in mind, so you never have to pick between performance and style. Backed by our digital strengths like next-day delivery, easy returns, and membership benefits, we can keep you shopping less and spending more time out there where it matters.

Defined by our community, we share the stories of the people rewriting what the outdoor culture looks like and inspire us every day to move, explore, and live a little more boldly.

Altitude Sports is much more than a retailer. It’s a place to help everyone rediscover the outdoors amid everyday life.

Our Origin

In 2011, employees Max and Alex acquired Altitude Sports, becoming majority owners.

“We’ve been longtime friends and roommates, bonded early on by our love for the outdoors and a shared obsession with technical apparel. At heart, we’re entrepreneurs. When we acquired Altitude Sports in 2011, our goal was simple: build a company by listening closely to our community and anticipating what people would need next.

We began by carrying well-known urbanwear brands, then quickly expanded into technical urban and outdoor apparel. Along the way, we saw two distinct communities emerge—city and nature—both driven by the same desire for comfort, performance, and thoughtful design. That shared mindset continues to shape everything we build at Altitude Sports today.”
