General Info:
Welcome to Boot Doctors and Paragon Outdoors, local family-owned and operated outdoor retailers since 1983 in Taos Ski Valley, NM and since 1986 in Telluride, CO. Open winter and summer, we offer top quality skis and bikes for rental and sale, plus demos, boots, bootfitting and the best brands of outdoor clothing. In Taos summer hiking trails start at our door. Enjoy your Telluride summer vacation with our Giant, Specialized, Ellsworth, Surley and Pivot bikes for rent or sale, plus guided rafting, fishing, and stand up paddle board adventures.
The Boot Doctors are the exclusive alignment trainers for Rocky Mountain Professional Ski Instructors of America. "Because we are a small family owned business located at the base of two great ski areas, we are able to provide a level of service that the big boxes can't," explains Bob Gleason, co-founder of the Boot Doctors and Curriculum Director at MasterFit University.
Their dedication to technical features isn't limited to hardgoods. "We choose our clothing with the same critical criteria," says Linda Mogetz, co-founder. "It is important to have both gear and clothing that meets the demands of customers. We use these items so we know what really works."
"We truly know our products," adds next generation Boot Doctor Galena Gleason, "My sister Kelli and I test skis for SKIING Magazine, while our Dad, Bob Gleason, and Bob Remiger, founders of Boot Doctors, test boots for Ski and Skiing respectively. This gives us an edge when recommending styles. We know from firsthand experience how different models perform. All our staff takes pride in matching each customer with truly the best gear for that person."
