History
Established in 2002.
Commit began as paint on a t-shirt in 2002. With strong backgrounds in snowboading, skateboarding, urban art, and apparel, we have used these opportunities and influences to create the image we represent today. Over the last decade, Commit has taken on many forms and faces, and now rests its roots in the Legendary land of Fernie, British Columbia. With the support of the community and our incredible friends, Commit's used a true "live and learn" mindset to construct the storefront that our customers have come to love and appreciate. The store offers a unique shopping experience that includes incredible staff who offer unsurpassed customer service, and the occasional cold beverage to enjoy as you engage in the sports you love. We actively involve ourselves in community development and are proud to enjoy the nomadic lifestyle offered by the East Kootenays. Mountain culture is where we found our solace, and we love using our time to offer this experience to our customers.
Meet the Business Owner: Adam L.
I was raised in Calgary and fortunate to travel to the East Kootenay's in summer and winter to play and ride. I love art and any sport you can do on a board. I have lived in the Fernie valley for more than a decade and am very proud to call this place home. During my third year in Fernie, I decided to convert a hobby of making clothes into a storefront, and in turn completed my child hood dream of owning a skate shop. Through years of hard work and monumental amounts of help/support from friends and family, Commit now stands strong as one of the most core shops in the BC. We have won a multitude of awards for our commitments to the world of board sport retail and I love going to work everyday to help others find exactly what they need for their outdoor adventures. Outside the store, I actively participate in all things snowboarding, and spend any extra time I have riding in remote spots around BC.
