SmartWool Ski Sock - Medium - 2005 BCS

Love these socks! True to the description's words that the flat-loop toe seams reduce hot spots and it truly doesn't bunch up when you ski/ride.

It took me a while to get into the Smartwool thing, but now I am a bit of an addict. These are comfortable, wear well and keep my feet dry. It is hard for me to speak to warmth, because I use bootheaters in my alpine boots. But, I stay pretty darn warm in Tele and AT boots (again, lots of blood flow, so that could be it). In all, a no bells and whistles great sock.

I have never owned a pair of Smartwool socks I have not been pleased with, and these are no exception. They are warm but aren't too thick. Even after a full day, they keep my feet dry from sweat, and if they happen to get wet from snow, they dry out quickly. They protect your shins and they never bunch up and fall down your legs. Primo.

I bought two pairs of these for a 2 day trip to Mount Hood and they are great. They are very warm and not bulky. I wouldn't ski with anything else.

Nice and warm, but best of all...they come out of the dryer fine and stay above the calf! I'm a big guy (6'2" 245) with large calves and these socks go right to the pit of my knee. I highly recommend for anything from in the office as well as outdoors.

Wore them all week on the slopes and had dry feet the whole time. Even went trudging through the snow up a huge hill with my 8 year old cousin for some quality sledding and even though my shoes were soaked through, my feet were warm and comfy. Love these.

I purchased 2 pair of these last season and they are excellent, even after 85 days on the slopes. I am 6'2" 230#, and have very large calves and these still fit over them to the knee and don't fall down; despite this, they also do not cut circulation. Warm, wick moisture and keep my feet dry, and always comfortable. No odor as well, at least after washing :) Best sock ever.

I have chronically cold feet (thanks to inheriting faulty circulation) and these socks solved the problem. They're comfortable, don't itch and don't feel soggy when sweated in. And they don't creep down your leg throughout the day, which is obviously very nice. These socks are more than worthy to share my ski boot with my foot.

Oh, and they also work great for any other winter activity...snowshoeing, bike commuting or just being able to walk down the street without your feet going numb in -20 degree weather.

So I have one pair of these and I won't wear anything else at all. I absolutely love these socks. I wear them every single day and they don't even smell! I wash them once a week between ski days and they work like a charm. They are super warm, never get wet, or at least they wick very well, and they are nice and thin without any bulking. Maybe I should buy stock in Smartwool for how many more I will be buying for this coming up season...

Work great for all but the Coldest days. Used these when the temp dropped to -9 degrees Fahrenheit at the base. (I use the Light ones for most days for cruising or lapping the park.)

Perfect balance of cushy, warmth and lightness. You feet get blood and stay dry and warm. It is a perfect compliment to your gear to say that you don't need to think about it, and that's what these achieve.

Great socks for a skiier. very thin, but perfect warmth and very comfortable. Size was perfect too, price was definitely right.

It is very good sok it is very soft even i go for a day long hunting and with a reindeer on my back its warm and keeps my feet dry

Sweetest knee highs ever. I can wear them for a week straight without them starting to smell. The bridge support is wicked. I especially like the shin padding on the front of each sock. They're crazy warm too. They are probably the most comfortable socks I own (and I have a lot of socks). If you do anything outside in the snow, whether it be skiiing, boarding or even just shovelling off your sidewalk, these socks are a must.

Wicks sweat. Cushions my shins from full-day abuse. Feels great on the feet. Doesn't slough or fall down your leg. A+

My feet smile whenever I put on smartwool socks, and these are no exception. I'm usually a big fan of ultra thin ski socks, especially before you've packed out your boots. These take up just a little more space in the boot, but are dense enough to not create a lot of slop. The extra padding is in all the right places, and their are no spots that bind or wrinkle causing pain. Also, they are not coarse, and therefore don't cause blisters if you're touring. I have 5 pairs of these, and never use any other ski socks.

Keeps your feet dry and warm, only complaint I have is when not wearing a ski boot they tend to fall and bunch, but other than that great sock. Be sure not to put them in the dryer!

I bought these socks and wore them in Minnesota during 0 degree weather. With these and the boots my feet did not get cold. Great Socks.

I love these socks because they are so warm without being bulky. I went hunting in them and my feet were warmer than any other year I have gone out. I recommend them to anyone who wants warm feet.

These are my first ski socks. Super comfortable snug fit. Feet stay dry in all conditions (skiied during artificial snow making, natural snow and rain). For days colder than 20deg I would opt for some warmer socks.

Wearable all the time - skiing or with slacks and jeans.

Best socks ever

i find these socks to be super comfortable, but they fit pretty bulky, and for their thickness, they don't provide any degree of outstanding heat.

they won't be on my feet during the upcoming arctic outflow, that's for sure

Gotta love Smartwool! These socks are comfortable, warm, and help keep my feet blister-free compared to my last ski sock. I have bought more pairs since, and will continue to buy Smarwool Ski Socks!

These are the perfect weight for warm wool ski socks. Not too heavy that they bunch up inside your boots and not too light that they don't offer much warmth on cold days. I love these socks and have a few pairs for those 6-day ski weeks...!!!

So I though I would try some new socks again the last time I did I found these so another change might be good right, Wrong!!! this is it for me, I ski and I love the padded front over all the sock is just right for me. Keep them out of the Dryer and they will last for a long time.

Wool works better than the synthetics and is more eco-friendly too. Only bummer is that these socks aren't 100% wool. But the spandex helps keep the socks from falling down.
