Junior Buyback Program
(Ages 6-14)
Willi's flagship program that started it all. Generations of Pittsburgh skiers have grown up through this program. Kids grow fast, and their gear needs to keep up. With Willi's Junior Buyback Program, you can keep your child in properly fitting skis, snowboards, and boots season after season, and get credit back every time they outgrow something.
Available at all Willi's locations!
South Hills, North Hills and Seven Springs
Under 6? Visit our Free Gear for 5 and Under page. Ages 15+ visit our Season Rentals
How it works
Buy new or used junior skis, snowboards, or boots from Willi's. When your child outgrows them, bring them back for merchandise credit toward your next purchase.
Program Highlights:
-
Boots and skis/snowboards are tracked separately, so you can return just what your child outgrows.
-
Multiple kids? Hand down gear and return items at different times – our program is designed to be flexible and fit your family’s needs.
-
If your child outgrows their boots during the season of purchase, stop into any Willi’s location. Our staff will get them refitted, including any binding adjustments and safety testing – so they can get right back on the slopes.
-
Before each season, we encourage families to bring their kids and gear into the shop. Our expert staff will check fit, safety, and condition, and guide you on what to keep and what to replace.
Why families love it:
The Junior Buyback Program takes the stress out of buying new gear for growing kids. With flexible options, real savings, and the support of Willi’s experienced staff, you can focus on what matters most – making memories on the mountain.
