Clothing & Fashion Shops in Chamonix — 7 of Our Favourites

"Stars & Mont Blanc" by Pierre Carrier and Pierre Maillet is a book describing four seasons of cuisine and mountain living through a collection of recipes from the Albert 1er gastronomic restaurant. For more than a century in the centre of Chamonix, dominated by incredibly beautiful mountains and majestic glaciers, Pierre Carrier (of the Albert 1er dynasty) and Pierre Maillet (his son-in-law) work the miracle of combining the worlds of (very) grand cuisine and (very) high mountains. With their two Michelin stars, these two chefs share a love of skiing and climbing with the rest of their families. They present a collection of recipes that you can attempt yourself, since the two chefs have shared all the details of their sky-scraping dishes.

Price: €45 (Their chefs Pierre Carrier and Pierre Maillet are able to sign your book upon request)

Mont-Blanc knives for the Hameau Albert Premier will help you to recreate the recipes in your own kitchen! These knives were made by Monsieur Didier Simond, especially for the Albert 1er restaurant.

One of the most basic Peak Performance characteristics is the wide range of products we market. If we can't find a glove that passes our standard, we get an expert designer to design one for us, then choose the best possible supplier to manufacture it. This is our guiding philosophy, from what appears to be a simple T-shirt to the most advanced winter jacket on the market. You, the buyer, deserve the best, and we'll make it for you.

General Stores are the name of our own outlets. These shops convey the ultimate Peak Performance feeling. Having our own stores allows us to present Peak exactly how we want to and gives us a valuable opportunity to interact with our customers face-to-face. It also lets us present new products and materials out in the real world. Today there are 22 Peak Performance General Stores world-wide, where the public can find our full range of products. We found it was fitting to be surrounded by the highest peaks in Europe, which is why we have our flagship French store in Chamonix.

In the late 1960’s Australian surfers Alan Green and John Law chased a dream – to live in Torquay, make a living and go surfing. In 1969 Alan Green produced wetsuits (Rip Curl) on a $2500 loan from his father, the next product was sheepskin boots (UGG Boots), and in 1970 he and John Law formed the company named Quiksilver. First and foremost Quiksilver’s products are created out of need. Whatever success they will enjoy is always secondary to that point. From Alan and John’s first pair of boardshorts down to anything in the line today, this is authentic performance gear. The point is that Quik stuff works so well because the people who design, make and sell it demand that it excel. This is why board meetings may be scheduled on European slopes, a ship off the coast of Java or a lake in Arizona. Quiksilver employees are a vital part of all research and development. They are the end users; everything they do is designed for them. There are no corporate marketing mission statements, trend- marketing surveys or fashion forecasts anywhere near it. Simple logic is, just create the best, most functional items imaginable and then work it.

Quiksilver Boardriders shop offers a diverse line of products including a complete wintersports clothing collection, accessories, eyewear, watches, and summer casuals. A similar offering for boys ages 8-14 years old, 4-7 years old and toddlers. The Winter Sports division has emerged with snowboarding apparel and hard goods designed for high performance enthusiasts. To further expand the division, in 1997, Quiksilver acquired Mervin, a snowboard manufacturing company that makes Gnu and Lib Tech snowboards and Bent Metal bindings. Girl’s lines includes Roxy gear.
