Obermeyer's success is rooted in a simple philosophy. “We make a technically responsible and great-looking
product, so we can all be proud of the work we do,” says Klaus Obermeyer, who founded the family-run
company in 1947 in response to skiers' needs. “We're privately held, and thereby not driven into a
short-term profit syndrome. It allows us to make decisions that are better for the future, instead of just
earning a quick dollar today.”

Klaus' personal integrity and commitment to excellence is across-the-board, from the value of the Obermeyer
product to relationships with dealers to customer service. It starts at home in Aspen, Colorado, at the
company's award-winning, 60% solar heated office complex, which is complete with a solar-heated lap pool,
an employee gym and easy access to skiing. The company also operates an award-winning, 100,000 square foot
distribution center near the Denver International Airport.
