FAQs
Are these socks suitable for hiking?
While technically designed for skiing and snowboarding, the merino blend makes them comfortable for other winter activities, though they are specifically padded for boot contact.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Choose your standard shoe size. The sock is designed to be form-fitting; avoid folding the cuff over as this can create pressure points.
Do I need to wear liners with these?
No, the triple-layer structure and merino blend are designed to function optimally as a single layer.
Can I tumble dry these socks?
It is not recommended. Tumble drying can damage the wool fibers and affect the fit; air drying is best for longevity.
What is the primary material used?
The socks are crafted from a warm, breathable merino wool blend.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight inside the boot
Ensure the socks are pulled up completely without folds or bunches in the toe area.
Feeling moisture buildup inside the boot
Ensure your ski boots are properly ventilated at the end of the day and that no non-breathable base layers are bunching inside the boot cuff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure the socks are pulled up evenly to allow the ergonomic knit to align with your leg anatomy. These socks are fully compatible with all standard ski and snowboard boots. To maintain the integrity of the merino wool blend and the cushioning zones, machine wash on a gentle cycle at low temperatures. Do not bleach or tumble dry, as this can degrade the elasticity of the fibers and alter the precise fit required for ski performance. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the material structure.
