Warm comfortable feet is the difference between an epic day on the slope and a miserable experience. How do you ensure your feet will be warm and comfortable? The answer may seem counterintuitive... thin ski socks. Yes, thin ski socks! Your thick ski socks will collect sweat and hold moisture close to your foot. That layer of moisture will get cold and cause your feet to get cold and make you feel like your toes will fall off. On the other hand, a thin sock will wick moisture away from your feet into the boot liner and keep your feet warmer and more comfortable all day long. Feet that can breath will be drier and more comfortable all day long.
Another aspect is you want a sock has high moister wicking qualities. We have found Alpaca wool fiber blend socks to be the best at wicking the moisture away from feet. The Alpaca fiber is so hydrophobic it will quickly usher the moisture from your feet to the ski boot liner. Our favorite Alpaca Ski socks are the boot fitter, simply because they are thin and keep your feet comfortable on the slope all day.
