Full details

These HEAT HOLDERS Ski & Snow Sports Socks in Grey & Navy are designed for adult males seeking maximum warmth during cold weather activities like skiing and snowboarding, or for general après-ski comfort. Their key benefit is exceptional thermal insulation, keeping feet toasty even on the coldest days. A potential caveat is their extra-long length, which may not suit all boot types or preferences. Key features include a high tog rating for superior warmth, a brushed thermal lining, ankle support for a secure fit, and a thickly padded design for cushioning.

FAQs

Are these socks suitable for everyday wear or just skiing?

While specifically designed for skiing and snow sports due to their extra length and features, they can also be worn for any activity in very cold weather or for general comfort when you need maximum warmth.

What makes Heat Holders socks so warm?

They feature a specially developed thermal yarn, a heavily brushed internal lining that creates a unique pile to hold warm air, and a high tog rating (2.34), making them exceptionally warm compared to standard socks.

How do I know which size to get?

The socks are available in sizes UK 6-11 (EUR 39-45) and UK 7-12. Please refer to standard sock sizing guides if unsure.

Can I tumble dry these socks?

Yes, Heat Holders socks can be tumble dried, but they are happiest and will last longer when line dried.

What is the tog rating of these socks?

These socks have a tog rating of 2.34, making them significantly warmer than standard socks.

Do these socks have arch support?

Yes, they feature ankle supports which provide a perfect fit and help prevent the socks from bunching down inside your boots. They also offer general foot cushioning.

What is the material composition?

The fibre composition is 91% Acrylic, 5% Nylon, 3% Polyester, and 1% Elastane.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the issue persists, they may be too thick for your current footwear. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to break them in or use them with looser-fitting boots.

Feet still feel cold

Verify that the socks are properly positioned, with no bunching. Ensure your ski boots or other footwear are not too tight, as this can restrict circulation. Check that the socks are completely dry.

Pilling or loss of softness after washing

Line drying is recommended over tumble drying. Wash with similar colors and avoid high temperatures.
