The Fixed Line is Alaska's premier outdoor gear repair service. We provide services to the vast population of outdoor adventurers, professional guides and outfitters, sportsman and people who play outdoors in the Last Frontier.
During our experiences with outdoor gear, we've seen most problems first hand, and we understand how to get you back in the field.
Our owner Chris Miller has worked 4 seasons in The Alsaka Range as a professional mountaineering and glacier travel instructor and guide with The Alaska Mountaineering School.
All that time working outdoors has provided the unique perspective of knowing how functional gear supports your adventures, and how a failed zipper or inopportune tear can lead to an epic suffer fest.
We have seen gear worked by sandstone slot canyons, ski edges, many crampon holes, simple sun exposure, and not to mention a fair share of "my dog ate my backpack strap" situations.
We started out sewing our own gear for adventures in college because we were too broke to buy commercially available stuff. We would hand stitch and clumsily use our friends machines just to keep well loved gear going from one adventure to the next. Through this we have learned how gear fails, and how to rebuild it.
We understand that Alaskans rely on their outdoor gear to explore and enjoy our great state. So do we! With so many things to do in Alaska, it can be hard to keep up on keeping your gear up to snuff. We are here to help.
We work with some of the best guides, resorts and services in Alaska. Check out some of our Clients.
