The North Face Ski Light Sock - Men's

Often the biggest conundrum in ski sock selection is whether to go padded/cushy/warm or ultralight/high-performance. The North Face Men's Ski Light Sock offers a happy compromise: a lightweight sock that provides technical interaction between your foot and your boot while keeping you cozy. The Ski Light Sock's blend of nylon, merino wool, and PrimaLoft fibers fits your foot like a glove (if feet wore gloves, anyway), providing insulation where it's needed, padding at impact points, and wicking when your slopeside skills really heat up. The sock's light, sleek fit gives you interference-free control.

Bottom Line: “I'm snug as a bug in a rug!” isn't the most masculine thing to shout out to your buddies in the backcountry on a sub-zero day, but your inner voices will be content keeping it to themselves.

I have been really liking these socks, they fit well, and have some great warmth. they are durable too. I have been surprised that they have lasted as long as they have, lots of days in them sometimes even a few days in a row without washing, dont seem to crust up to quickly.

I would say they would be categorized as thin and not super bulky. They are pretty durable and my favorite sock in the TNF line. We have actually been using them for alpine climbing... this shot is from an attempt on mt meru in the Indian himalaya [conrad anker's feet]

I came across these last season window shopping on the internet for an alternative to my old method (thin polypropylene under cotton). Not necessarilly the best choice, so I picked up 8 pairs of these for this coming season.

I have yet to wear them in my ski boots but must say they are plenty warm and comfy hiking around town in my snow boots. There is thin padding in the heal, shin and toes that i'm sure will aid in ski boot comfort and long term wear.

I'll update this review after I get a couple laps in with them.

Luxury Socks

I bought these socks for my 10 year old son for skiing, and he loves them. My size unfortunately wasn't in stock, so I had to get the snowboarding sock instead. I notice no difference between the ski sock and the snowboard sock; however, the pads are apparently in slightly different places, in order to optimize for the appropriate boot and sport.

Kinda crazy looking, but...

These socks are actually pretty awesome. Lots of thick material to help your feet feel nice and comfortable in case you ski into some crud. Not too hot. Nice and tall so they stay in place. Very affordable. Great sock all around.
