Knee high snow socks in a technical wool blend, with a boot shield against shin bang and impact cushioning where you land. Warm, dry feet from first chair to après.
Every pair is knee high, wool blend and one of a kind. Pick your design.
Ski boots and snowboard boots press, rub and trap sweat in the same places. Scroll to see how each zone deals with it.
An anti friction cushion runs down the shin, right where the boot tongue presses. Less rubbing, fewer bruises, more runs.
Extra padding under the heel and sole soaks up landings, chatter and long traverses, and adds a warm layer under your foot.
A ventilated knit over the instep lets sweat escape. Dry feet are warm feet, even on the coldest chairlift.
Elastic zones hug the calf and arch so the sock never slides down or wrinkles inside the boot.
Real riders, real snow, real socks. This is what a day on the mountain in American Socks looks like.
Piste, park, powder or the van in the car park. Our snow socks are made for skiing and snowboarding alike, from the first lift to the last beer.
Soft boots, long days and big landings. The cushioned heel and boot shield keep you riding from first chair to last run, with art loud enough to spot from the lift.
Ski boots press hardest on the shin. Our anti friction shield takes the pressure and the wool blend keeps toes warm while you carve.
Boots unbuckled on the terrace, socks on show. Designs by artists that look as good at the bar as they do on the slopes.
Snowboard boots flex a lot. Zonal support on the calf and arch keeps the sock in place, so nothing slides or bunches when you strap in.
Off piste, tree runs and powder mornings. Knee high coverage and impact cushioning keep your feet protected when the snow gets deep.
Pull them up to the knee, lace your boots and forget about them. The anatomical knit sits flat so nothing rubs all day.
Early starts and frozen car parks. Warm, knee high and comfortable from the drive up to the last run.
Cold hands, frozen car park, first lift in ten minutes. Pull them up to the knee and you are ready to ride.

Knee high socks in a technical wool blend, with cushioning on the shin and heel and a snug, wrinkle free fit. Avoid cotton, which holds sweat and turns cold. Our snow socks tick every box and add artwork by independent artists.
Very little. Both need to be knee high, warm and cushioned. Ski boots are stiffer and press on the shin, so a boot shield matters; snowboard boots are softer and take more impact under the heel. Our snow socks are built for both.
They are a technical wool blend rather than 100% merino: 30% wool with polyamide, polypropylene and elastane. Like merino ski socks, the wool keeps you warm even when damp, while the synthetics dry faster, last longer and keep the fit. Soft on the skin, not itchy.
Thicker is not warmer. A sock that is too thick fills the boot, cuts circulation and leaves your toes cold. Our snow socks are midweight with cushioning only where you need it: shin, heel and sole.
No. Two pairs squeeze your foot, slow blood flow and create wrinkles that cause blisters. One good pair of wool blend snow socks is warmer.
You can, but you will feel it. Cotton soaks up sweat and gets cold, and short socks let the boot rub your bare shin. Knee high technical socks keep you warmer, drier and blister free.
Make sure your boots fit and are buckled properly, wear one knee high sock with no wrinkles, and choose a sock with shin padding. Our boot shield adds an anti friction cushion exactly where the tongue presses.
Wear one pair of dry wool blend socks, put them on just before your boots, dry your boots overnight and do not overtighten the buckles. The instep airflow in our socks lets moisture out, so your feet stay warm.
Yes. Instep airflow keeps your feet dry on the way up and the impact cushioning protects them on the way down.
Both. Our snow socks are unisex and come in two sizes covering EU 36 to 46.
Machine wash at 30ºC, inside out. Do not tumble dry, bleach or iron. Air drying keeps the wool and elastic zones in shape season after season.
Definitely. Every design is made with an independent artist, so they are the gift nobody else on the chairlift will be wearing.
S/M fits EU 36–41 and L/XL fits EU 42–46. Ski socks should be snug, so if you are between sizes pick the smaller one: extra fabric wrinkles inside the boot.
| Size | EU | UK | US |
|---|---|---|---|
| S/M | 36–41 | 3–7 | 6–8.5 |
| L/XL | 42–46 | 8–12 | 9–13 |
