Kaestle went into early retirement in 1997 after their parent company, Benetton Group slashed the R&D budget of the 73 year-old Austrian manufacturer considerably. After 10 years of dormancy, in 2007 Kaestle unveiled its "Comeback Collection" and turned heads worldwide. In 2010 Kaestle showed the skiing world that they are here to stay with a strong display at the SIA Snow Show in Denver, Colorado. Look for Kaestle to become one of the most popular brands on the slopes over the next several years.
