Thicker than Light

By Rob de Luca January 7, 2009

Going from the Smartwool Ultralight to these was a big step up in thickness; some might consider this a benefit, but I didn't. As someone who wears a race-fit boot, I couldn't recommend these for skiing. They're also pretty small in the foot for a Large (I am a street-shoe size 10). I gave them 3 stars because I scored four pairs for next to nothing on SAC, and I use them as tall winter athletic/work socks under pants when I wear sneakers or light hiking boots. If you want a pretty thin, but not micro-thin ski sock for colder days, I suggest the Bridgedale Precision Fit Light instead. And for super-cold days: electronic heated insoles--worth every penny.
