Black Tie Skis locations are independently owned and operated across 21 premier resorts — with local owners on the ground at every destination. Sublime Logics built a platform that brings world-class rental delivery, custom fitting, and seamless online booking to skiers and adventure guests nationwide.

21 Premier Resort Locations

Independently owned and operated branches across North America — each with local expertise and on-the-ground ownership.

360 Seasonal Experts

A network of local specialists delivering custom fitting, equipment knowledge, and premium guest service every winter season.

32+ Premium Brands

Curated fleet featuring the industry's leading ski and snowboard brands — maintained to the highest performance standards.

Born in Steamboat Springs

Like many great ski stories, Black Tie began with two passionate skiers in a legendary mountain town. Joe Sternberg and Ian Prichard were working at a local shop, watching families wait in long rental lines while fresh powder sat untouched outside. They believed ski vacations should be about skiing — not standing in queue.

Black Tie Skis was founded in a one-car garage with a few hundred pairs of the industry's finest equipment — and a clear mission to deliver a better rental experience.

A North American Rental Network

Today, the Black Tie rental fleet spans 21 locally owned and operated branches across North America, servicing more than 49 world-class mountains. The organization employs 360 local experts during the winter season and offers over 32 of the industry's best ski and snowboard brands.

Each location combines the independence of local ownership with the consistency of a trusted brand — passionate about the mountain communities they serve and the visitors they welcome.

Digital Platform & Guest Experience
