Three-year agreement brings performance apparel, safety training, and brand activation to iconic Lake Placid venues

BOULDER, Colorado (April 7, 2026) /OUTDOOR SPORTS/Mammut, the 160‑year‑old Swiss mountain sports brand, has been named the exclusive uniform partner of the New York State Olympic Regional Development Authority (Olympic Authority). The three-year partnership elevates guest and employee experiences across Olympic Authority-managed facilities, including Whiteface Mountain, Gore Mountain, Belleayre Mountain, Olympic Center, Olympic Jumping Complex, and Mt Van Hoevenberg.

Rooted in Swiss mountain tradition, Mammut brings world-class performance, comfort, and safety to New York’s iconic Olympic venues. Through the partnership, Mammut will outfit staff with its best-in-class performance gear, provide winter safety and avalanche training, and play an active role in national and international events hosted at the venues. The partnership supports Olympic Authority staff in their daily work by improving safety and readiness across venues, and standardizing performance apparel across facilities – while reinforcing a culture of safety and professionalism that benefits both employees and guests across the Adirondack and Catskill regions.

“Our partnership with Mammut reflects our mutual shared commitment to excellence in mountain environments,” said Tait Wardlaw, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for the Olympic Authority. “We hold our venues and teams to the highest performance and safety standards. Mammut ensures our staff are equipped with apparel and gear that meets those same standards.”

The agreement expands Mammut’s growing resort partner and supplier program, now encompassing 18 partners and serving more than 75 resorts across North America. For Mammut, the partnership represents more than uniforms, it’s a brand-building opportunity that deepens its presence in the northeastern U.S. winter sports community.
