Ski and Snowboard Socks!
Are ski and snowboard socks better than regular socks?
Ski & board socks are shaped to the contour of your feet alleviating extra material that can leave wrinkles. Sock wrinkles in a boot can cut off circulation which will make your feet cold and uncomfortable.
What about white cotton tube socks for the slopes?
Cotton absorbs moisture which make your feet damp, which then make your feet cold! If you want warm feet, you should not wear cotton socks.
What about sock thickness?
Usually, novice to intermediates should have a medium to heavy weight sock. Advance to experts like close fitting boots and they should have a light to mid weight sock.
Will 2 pair of socks make my feet warmer?
You may think 2 pair of socks would keep your feet warmer but what happens are two things. First, 2 pair of socks make your feet larger and your boots then fit snugger cutting off circulation. Second, 2 pair of socks don't allow your feet to breathe making them damp which make them cold.
