Hylaea Merino Wool Ski Socks, Cold Weather Socks for Snowboarding, Snow, Winter, Thermal Knee-high Warm Socks, Hunting

I ski in the West 40 - 50 days/year and own more than 25 pairs of ski socks, some wool and some non-natural fibers. After skiing on these Merino wool blend socks for three days, I would say they are as high quality as any of my other ski socks, which include Smartwool, Stance, Wigwam, Burton, Darn Tough and other mainline brands. They are quite tall, reaching fully up to my knee, and they have a lot of compression and seem very unlikely to slip down my leg. Despite the description referring to targeted cushioning, I would consider them 'full cushion' socks as they are reasonably thick everywhere and don't really have any portions of the sock that seem materially thinner than any other part of the sock. (They are not thick in some places and thin in other places like some ski socks.) The material that runs along the shin seems slightly different (and slightly less thick) than the rest of the sock. This may make them more resistant to wear under the constant back and forth pressure the shin area of the sock encounters during skiing (just a guess), but for me it did not affect the comfort of the sock even under aggressive skiing. I bought the Camo color and find that design very attractive in all of the three colors. In the three pack, they are less than $10/pair, which is about a third of the cost of Smartwool's ski socks. Although neither the packaging nor the text on the Amazon page lists the percentage of wool in the sock, there is one photo that indicates the socks are 31% Merino wool. While that is similar to the Merino content of many wool ski socks and less than the Merino content of a few others, I found these Hylaea socks soft and quite warm. If I didn't already own way more socks than I will ever need, I would buy three more pairs.

First-time skier and these were excellent. My shins never hurt at all, and my feet stayed warm and dry the entire day. The fit was supportive but not too tight, nothing like the compression socks I wear for work that cut off circulation. Super comfortable and made a bigger difference than I expected. Would definitely buy again.

For inexpensive wool socks these have worked better than my expensive smartwool socks for keeping my feet warm while skiing and staying up on my calves without sliding down. They seem pretty well made and the padding on the shin is not too thick so I dont notice it under my boots. They are about as thin as my other ski socks which is critical for a tight boot fit.

These socks are extremely comfortable. I have worn them about 10 times skiing and they keep their shape and do not stretch out. I might add, they keep my feet nice and warm. My main reason for ordering these socks was because they advertise that they had a targeted padding on the front shin. They have almost no padding on the front shin area. The padding consists of maybe two layers of sock material. Otherwise, than that, I wholeheartedly recommend this sock and will continue to use them. But like I said prior, they offer almost no padding for the front shin area while skiing.

My husband and I wore these while working 8-10 hour shifts as a delivery driver with Amazon and these WORK! We had a pretty big snow storm recently and these definitely kept our feet warm and... no wet socks! yay! the quality is really good and they're pretty soft. they go up to right under my knees and they're pretty tight so they feel like compression socks as well which is a plus! compared to a lot of my other socks, I really like how they don't fall down or anything. They're a little pricey, but so worth it!

Bought these for my son for hiking and snowboarding he really likes them. They keep him warm and from boot chafing they go up high enough. He’s been happy with them. No shrinking. Good quality. Not too thick good weight. He says they’re comfortable he washes them in his dorm washer with no issues.

Socks that Work, Feel Great. Wife and I Love the fit and especially the Support. We are using them daily in Sub zero weather in Alaska. They are nice and warm. I highly recommend trying these. I am going to order more.

Comfortable,and warm. 3 stars because the quality is fairly bad. After 4 to 5 uses the toes have started to wear out.

My experience with the Merino Wool Ski Socks during our winter adventure in Iceland was a mixed one. While they have several positive attributes, there's a notable drawback to consider. Let's start with the positive aspects. These socks come in the perfect size, providing a snug and comfortable fit. The quality of the materials used is commendable, and they did an excellent job of keeping our feet warm in the Icelandic cold without causing excess sweat. However, there's a caveat to consider. The socks have a somewhat compressive quality, which can be beneficial for some, but the issue arises with the tightness around the knee area. This tightness under the knee occasionally caused discomfort and even pain. It's worth noting that this problem wasn't isolated to just one user; my teenager also experienced the same discomfort. In summary, the Merino Wool Ski Socks offer some positive features such as sizing, comfort, quality, and warmth. However, the tightness around the knee area can be a concern for some users, leading to occasional discomfort.

The socks are well fitting and as described. Yet to try them out.

Only two of the three ordered pairs were delivered. Not happy

Yo soy muy friolenta y estos calcetines me encantaron, mantienen mis pies calientitos, y tmb la pantorrilla no se bajan como otros. Cómodos y me quedaron perfecto
