With added mobility around the calves, strategically placed mesh zones, and padding only where we need it, the Smartwool Snowboard Targeted Cushion Stripe Extra Stretch OTC Sock enhances riding comfort for a day on the hill. The light cushioning at the shin and underfoot helps relieve pressure points and mute vibrations without packing out our boots. As we ride, soft, itch-free merino wool fibers keep our feet feeling fresh, while body-mapped mesh gives our feet a boost in breathability where it counts. And with Shred Shield tech, this pair is built to last season after season.
