These socks do not stay up over the calf.
Sadly, these socks do not stay up. I am a 6'3 tall ski instructor and I have skied for 60 years and I LOVE my SMART WOOL clothing!!! My favorite pair of ski socks are from Smart Wool and they never fall down. They are so tight with a strong elastic around my calf that I have to muscle the socks to get them off. So when I learned about the extra tall socks, I bought 5 pair but after my first ski day, I discovered that these extra tall socks had fallen down below my calf. I tried another pair of my new socks, only to find that they also fell below my calf. I can only guess that my original favorite ski Smart Wool Ski socks must have had a higher percentage of the elastic material. This socks are a complete failure.
Super Comfortable and Great Fit!
I recently got the Ski Extra Stretch Over The Calf Socks and, although I haven't had the chance to test them on the slopes yet, I can already tell they're going to be fantastic. Trying them on, they fit perfectly over my calves without feeling too tight or restrictive. The extra stretch makes them incredibly comfortable, and they stay in place nicely. The material feels high-quality, with just the right amount of cushioning. If they perform as well on the mountain as they do in my initial try-on, they'll be my new go-to ski socks!
love the blue
I bought these for my mom. She absolutely loves the ski socks and the fact they go up over the calves. This is her winter go to sock no matter where she is, if inside or out at a bonfire or walking around her feet stay toasty. This blue pair was a good addition to the collection. she is not sure about the extra stretch since her calves are not huge but she could see the plus side for the need. she hopes this helps others.
Just purchased my 9th & 10th pair!
We ski 20-25 days per year and I need a technical ski sock that wicks moisture and has minimal cushioning. I have mostly targeted cushioning but a few pairs of no cushion. Price is reasonable and great durability. I probably add 1-2 pairs per year. I wear a 28. 5 ski boot and the Large sock fits perfect. I even have a couple of pairs that I use for hiking although ""over the calf"" are a bit much in the summer. . .
Better than I thought it would be!
I really like the sock and the fit, it was spot on! I went and got the extra stretch ski sock. From the first, it was spot on! The feel was great, and the support was great at the foot of the sock. Did not feel like the sock was over-compressing my calf. This is my first Smartwool sock in a very long time, need the time to see if it is five-star worthy!
I would definitely recommend this product.
I just got back from Colorado skiing with my family. This is the first time I bought smart wool knee-high's for skiing and they were perfect. My feet never hurt in the ski boots and they were always warm. And the knee highs were a great protection for my shins.
Smartwool is always a good buy
I've been buying smartwool socks for over 20 years and they never disappoint. These ski socks are just the right thickness and although I have yet to take them out for a trial run, I know from past purchases that they will keep me warm.
Manufacturing Mishap
The socks are mismatched right out of the package - when I tried them on, one sock fit perfectly and the other sock barely made it up my calf (no my calves are not two different sizes, I switched them to test that theory, however)
the most comfortable ski socks
The extra stretch seems to make a big difference. Other socks (some SmartWool, some other brands) dug in at the top around the calf. These do not -- can ski for hours without noticing them! By far the most comfortable we've found.
Great for runners!
My teenage son is distance runner and had the worst time finding comfortable ski socks due to the size of his calves. He spent all of spring break using the extra stretch socks and declared he wouldn't ski in anything else!
