About Bernard Charvin Sports
Bernard Charvin Sports is a premium ski and sportswear destination in the heart of Courchevel 1850, established in 1972. Located on Rue du Rocher — one of the resort's main commercial streets — the shop combines high-end equipment rental with a curated retail selection of skiwear, fashion, and accessories from luxury alpine brands.
The rental department offers top-tier alpine skis, snowboards, and boots from leading manufacturers, with a focus on performance-level equipment suited to the challenging terrain of the Three Valleys. Expert boot fitting includes shell customisation, custom insole moulding, and canting adjustments to optimise alignment. The in-house workshop handles precision tuning with automated edge and base machines, ensuring every rental ski goes out race-ready. Children's equipment and beginner packages are also available.
What makes Bernard Charvin Sports distinctive in Courchevel's crowded rental market is the seamless integration of fashion and function. While other shops focus purely on equipment, Charvin offers a boutique shopping experience where guests can outfit themselves head-to-toe — from performance ski jackets to après-ski boots — alongside their rental fitting. For over 50 years, the Charvin name has been synonymous with quality in Courchevel, drawing a loyal clientele of returning guests who value both technical expertise and premium presentation.
