Winters at high elevation mean you wear almost any sock in your drawer that's designed for comfort and warmth. Even though the Bridgedale Precision Fit Lightweight Sock is technically designed for the ski set and does a darn fine job of providing moisture transfer, warmth, and non-bunchability that diehard skiers like us in Crested Butte demand, these are great sock for daily running around in cold temps. IsofilŽ is awesome at wicking moisture away, and merino wool insulates. This is a thinner sock, but it's one of our best selling ski socks for good reasons!
