Pricing & Tariff Update – What it means for skiers.

Majesty Skis America – Updated on March 11, 2026

If you’ve followed our previous updates, you know how significantly U.S. trade policy has impacted the outdoor industry. If you’re just tuning in, here’s a clear summary of where we now stand.

Tariffs continue to disrupt the industry

Following a February 2026 Supreme Court ruling that deemed his previous, broader tariffs unconstitutional, President Trump is implementing a 15% tariff on most imports using a different, rarely-used authority, Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974.

These penalties, along with a weaker U.S. dollar, higher fuel and logistics costs, have increased our landed cost by approximately 25% percent compared to the pre-tariff years.

Pricing changes

At Majesty, we have absorbed as much of these cost increases as possible. However, the current tariff structure and rising costs make it impossible to continue without adjusting our pricing.

  • Dealer pricing increased by approximately 7 to 15 %
  • Retail pricing adjusted upward between 10 to 17 %

We remain committed to maintaining the quality, performance and sustainability that define our skis. These adjustments allow us to continue supporting our customers, partners and athletes while operating responsibly in a changing economic environment.

Current spring sale pricing is a great opportunity to secure the skis you want while supplies last.

Pre-order fulfillment windows

Due to the cost of storing high-value inventory in the U.S., we may operate on a pre-order basis for select 2026-27 ski models. This allows us to manage our inventory while still delivering the gear you want.

When pre-ordering 2027 skis, please expect pre-order fulfillment to fall within a delivery window of approximately 4 to 6 weeks.

Our commitment to you

We understand that price changes are never ideal. We are absorbing as much as we can, and we remain fully committed to supporting our retailers, athletes and loyal customers.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership. We’re proud to build skis that perform at the highest level and to stand with a community that values transparency and long-term vision.
