These socks are Awesome!

By Backcountry.com Employee January 8, 2007

Don't let the name fool you- Ultra Light does not equate to cold feet!!! As someone who has had trouble with cold feet while skiing, I can recommend these socks with confidence! These socks actually have caused my ski boots to feel and fit better than they ever had- I think this may be because there is no extra/unnecessary material to bunch up and irritate my foot. Even though these socks are not thick, they are warm- no problems skiing Jackson Hole in -10 F weather. The kicker is, after wearing these socks for 20 ski-days without washing them, they still didn't smell... try wearing capilene socks for 5 days without washing them, and you'll probably need to put a clothespin on your nose- oh, the magic of wool! Less laundry=more time outside on the slopes, so if that sounds good to you too, get some Smartwool Skiing socks and reap the many rewards of your sub-$20 purchase.
