Isn't It Always A Good Time To Talk About Ski Socks?
We pretty much do that all year long.
September 16, 2019
Winter is inching closer, but here at Point6's Steamboat HQ, ski socks are a hot topic year-round. Each winter, we ski and ride ours and everyone else's. But only one can be the best.
No matter where your readers ride or ski, they'll find that the Point6 line of ski and snowboard socks are the best in the business. Our founders, Peter and Patty Duke, started out as ski instructors. They know what a sock needs to perform all day, every day.
- FIT - Ever have a sock develop a baggy heel or toe over the course of a long day?
Ever have a sock get that aggravating wrinkle under your arch?
Not with Point6. We build in arch support, an ankle brace, exceptional cross stretch and tons of other features that keep the fit snug and the performance high.
- So skin up in the dark and tour all day.
- Ride the first chair and the last.
- Race the tram.
These socks will never quit.
- DRY - A wet foot is a cold foot. Merino beats any fabric for moisture absorption and wicking, but not all merino is created equal. Our Compact Spinning method creates a softer, less bulky yarn that is 25% more durable. Certain Point6 models employ a fiber technology called 37.5 to beef up the toe and heel. Unlike regular nylon, 37.5 more closely matches the moisture wicking performance of merino, raising the performance/durability bar.
- DURABLE - Our socks last. That's why we have a lifetime guarantee.
Ski or snowboard. East or West. Back, side and/or frontcountry. Park, pipe, groomer or secret pow. We make the socks that will be your readers' go-to. And yours.
Point6 ski and snowboard socks come in Medium, Light, and Ultralight weights. Prices vary from $23.95 to $31.95.
