About Outdoor DIVAS Store

Kim Walker, co founder and president of outdoor DIVAS has over 25 years of experience in retailing. Her extensive background spans industries from home furnishings and interior design to fashion. Following her graduation from the College of Wooster with a Bachelor of Arts in English, Walker headed west to pursue her love of skiing and the mountains. While living and working in Vail, Walker was continually frustrated due to the lack of options for women specific ski gear. She felt there was a genuine need for a place women could go to shop without feeling intimidated. Walker combined her passion for retail with her enthusiasm for adventure sports to launch outdoor DIVAS. In the fall of 2002 with partner Michael Callas, she launched outdoor DIVAS on the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, CO. outdoorDIVAS.com was launched in 2005, and in 2006, the second brick and mortar store opened in the Cherry Creek North shopping district of Denver. In November of 2015 outdoor DIVAS went back to its roots and opened the Womens Ski Center in Vail, CO. As the first women specific outdoor and snow sports shop in the country, outdoor DIVAS has become the premiere shopping destination for active women. In addition to offering the best women specific technical gear and apparel, outdoor DIVAS strives to educate women through unique classes and events. As a recognized authority on apparel and gear designed for women, Walker is regularly called upon to contribute to the product design proce
