Steve Brown


Steve Brown is the owner of a company called Apres Headwear, a company that celebrates the comradery and lifestyle that comes along with the sport of skiing. Although he recently relocated to Colorado, Steve learned to ski at our home mountain of Stowe, Vermont. He puts in over 100 days a year on snow and was a valuable addition to our test. As one of our bigger testers we really paid attention to his feedback surround stability and torsional stiffness as he can really drive a ski thanks to his size and ability. If you find yourself out in Colorado and want to do some fly fishing Steve is an accomplished guide and an all-around rad guy. Look him up and you might even score yourself a hat!
