Friday, August 2 through Sunday, August 4, 2019 is Missouri's Sales Tax Holiday for qualifying back to school purchases. For parents looking to get high quality apparel, shoes and gear that will actually make it through not only this school year, but also years to come, Alpine Shop is the place to shop! 

To qualify, apparel and footwear must be under $100. And right now, Alpine Shop has some great bargains on items like: Patagonia Better Sweaters - regularly priced at $139 are now $96.97; selected Chaco sandal styles - regularly priced between $105 and $115 are now $89.97; plus, almost our entire stock of summer apparel is discounted between 25-40% off. And as long as our price tag says it's under $100, it qualifies for no state sales tax!

If you're shopping on-line, we're offering FREE shipping across our entire website this weekend. No code necessary! (But the offer does exclude oversized items like bikes and boats.)

On the subject of school gear like backpacks, we understand that very few of our backpacks meet the under-$50-threshold the state requires for the tax holiday. However, we would like to point out that we're fairly sure most of those under-$50 backpacks you'll find somewhere else also won't come with a lifetime guarantee. 

Check out this story on our marketing director's son's backpack that lasted not only his entire grade school career but also his high school career and beyond.

We like to call it Built to Last Back to School.
