Anyone used these? Smartwool ski compression socks
Post Body

Looking for feedback on the since they're not cheap. They have targeted cushioning on the heel and the toe and the shin. I believe these socks are unisex.

Open to alternatives that are also Merino wool, compression, with targeted cushioning. Can't really find else with all three.

**Edit - I wanted to add in that I run very cold to an almost painful point both in my fingers and toes. The thinnest socks do not keep me warm enough. Not been diagnosed with raynauds but I suspect that's the issue.

Muscle fatigue, circulation, helps with recovery. These aren't crazy compression like the flying ones anyway. Do you particularly dislike compression socks?

People wear the same stock more than once?? Doing sports? ๐Ÿคจ .. I don't think I've ever worn the same sock twice...

Thank you for your feedback that this is helpful in making my decision. I'm glad you like these smartwool ones specifically

Actually have done that.. picked up new boots end of last season and haven't used them yet. but they were properly fitted and heat moulded and turns out I'm a narrow foot but I've been skiing thus far in a wide. Can't wait to try them out this season. Interesting info on the compression.

I agree and thank you for the recommendation. I have eight in the cart waiting for checkout.

My wallet however does not thank you. ๐Ÿคฉ

These look fantastic ... And pricey.

Ended up with darn tough ones on the recommendation of everyone else here.
